About this movie

Disney•Pixar proudly presents the hilarious story of how two mismatched monsters met and became lifelong friends in a movie screaming with laughter and oozing with heart. Ever since college-bound Mike Wazowski (Billy Crystal) was a little monster, he's dreamed of becoming a Scarer-and he knows better than anyone that the best Scarers come from Monsters University (MU). But during his first semester at MU, Mike's plans are derailed when he crosses paths with hotshot James P. Sullivan, "Sulley" (John Goodman), a natural-born Scarer. The pair's out-of-control competitive spirit gets them both kicked out of the University's elite Scare Program. With their dreams temporarily dashed, they realize they will have to work together, along with an odd bunch of misfit monsters, if they ever hope to make things right.

This movie was great for the whole family, from 83 to 7! It had a wonderful story that the youngest could follow and the comedy spanned the gaps of all ages. It also led smoothly into Monsters Inc. Letting you know how most main characters got their start. Definately a must see for kids and adults alike.

It's predictable, the gags are basically slapstick, and like Cars, seems to be written to maximize the theme park and merchandise tie-ins. It used to be that Pixar's mediocre fare was still better than everyone else's best efforts. This is no longer the case. I

I am actually very pleased with a theme about facing consequences for your actions. Even though they are not pleasant. Otherwise a very nice pixar movie. P.S. even if you don't go there you MUST check out the new pixar's short - "Blue umbrella"!!! Its' unbelievably beautiful.
