It's why we go to movies, to be entertained!

Rating: Null/10 (7 November 2001)

Within ten minutes into MONSTERS, INC, you know you are in for a fun packed ride. The town of Montropolis is powered by the energy found in children's screams. It's up to Monsters Inc (the local power company- what ConEd is to Manhattan) to keep the city packed with screams. It's has the wacked logic of a Gary Larson "Far Side" cartoon come to life. What I loved are the amazing details- the purring snakes in Celia's hair, the various shaped monsters that populate the town, the amazing facial expressions of Boo, the human child that wanders into Montropolis. There is almost no preachy moral to the story, no real social message, just 90 minutes of endless fun (oh, and the fate that awaits the bad monster, I think I broke blood vessels laughing too hard!)
