Editorial Review:

Amazon.co.uk Review:
The monsters in Monsters, Inc. are just so incredibly cute--and they know it. Whereas Woody, Buzz and pals in the Toy Story saga were filled with self-doubt about just how much the children in their lives would continue to love them, here our heroic monsters and their impossibly lovable human ward Boo have no such worries, at least when it comes to the cinema audience. And that's why Monsters, Inc., for all its wondrous computer-animated artistry, its smart humour and its family-friendly appeal, doesn't quite capture the naïve charm of its predecessors.

Nevertheless, John Goodman and Billy Crystal, as scare-champions Sulley and Mike, are a great double-act whose comedy never goes over kids' heads but still reaches up to make their parents laugh. The film's central conceit--that monsters in the bedroom closet are just doing a night's work in order to generate power from screams for the city of Monstropolis--is funny and cleverly worked out; and kids will of course love the fact that the monsters are mortally afraid of the very children they are trying to frighten.

The animation is extraordinarily detailed (Sulley's fur is a marvel in itself) and the set-piece action sequences top anything that has gone before for sheer audaciousness. But overall Pixar play things very safe, from the hissable villain to the end credit "outtakes". A bolder film might have taken inspiration from The Nightmare Before Christmas; instead, a little of that Disney disease of knowing cuteness seems to have crept into the formula. --Mark Walker

- NOT WIDESCREEN VERSION!
Be aware, this is the 4:3, not the Widescreen version!

Easy to buy it by mistake as 99.9% of DVDs are widescreen!

- A great family animation - Pixar brilliance
Pixar have earned a glowing reputation over the last two decades by creating heart warming and humorous family films, and Monsters Inc is yet another animated masterpiece.

From the great adventures of Woody and Buzz in the Toy Story franchise to The superheroes in The Incredibles, Pixar have become an established company in the film animation industry and this 2001 hit about monsters is one of their best.

From director Pete Docter, comes a story about Sully and Mike, two scarers in the Monsters Inc cooperation who find their world turned upside down when a monstrous child enters their world and their lives.

It's a typical family film containing amusing physical humour, none more so than Crystal's (When ... Read More:

- A sweet and entertaining animation
Pixar, the people behind Toy Story, Finding Nemo and the excellent Incredibles, is one of the best western animation studios around at the moment and Monsters Inc is probably one of the best films they have ever made. In the film the monsters that live in children's cupboards come from the city of Monstropolis and get their power from the screams of the children. When the top Scarer Sulley and his assistant Mike discovers a child has crossed over from the human world to Monstropolis they do their best to return her home but monstrous intrigue and the fact that all monsters are deathly afraid of humans complicate matters incredibly.

The main strength of Monsters Inc is its utterly incredible CGI animation that is some of the best ... Read More:
