Pixar just wants to have fun

Rating: 9/10 (30 November 2004)

This movie is real fun for adults and kids alike. Much of the humor might be over the heads of kids -- as is the running social commentary raging against the celebration of mediocrity -- but they'll love the action bits, the slap stick, and the entire comic book feel. This might not be suitable for the very young. My 4-year-old wanted to run out of the theater during some of the robot scenes ... but them wanted to run back in to see what was happening.
The true joy of this movie it that its obvious that everyone involved just wanted to have fun. Must be a great way to make a living.
Easily a nine for the genre.
