VHS Movie Reviews of Monsters, Inc.

Movie Review: Satisfied
Summary: 5 Stars

The movie arrived on time and works great. I would make another purchase from this seller.

Movie Review: Fresh and Original
Summary: 5 Stars

This was the most original Pixar film since Toy Story, in my opinion. Keep it up Pixar!

Movie Review: One of the best movies ever
Summary: 5 Stars

I have watched this movie 100 times with my kids. We really, really enjoy this movie. One of our favorites! Mike, Sully, and Boo are some of the greatest characters ever. This movie is very easy to follow for young kids, and has just enough higher brow humor to entertain adults.
It is also a movie with a lot of love (even to different species who in the past were natural "enemies"), and a good lesson in tolerance for ALL our differences.
Great movie for every one to watch and enjoy!

Movie Review: It's a scream!
Summary: 5 Stars

"Monsters,Inc" is one of PIXAR's cleverest creations. It's about the Cyclopean Mike (Billy Crystal) and the shaggy Sully (John Goodman) whose career is to make children scream, keeping Monsteropolis powered. They collect children's screams. However,their city is having an "energy crisis" since children aren't as easily scared. Sully has been employee of the month--but the jealous salamander Randall (Steve Buscemi) will do anything to get ahead. Then,a little girl named Boo scares Monsterpolis... On the way, Sully develops paternal feelings for Boo,and it's learned that the monsters fear children.

"Monsters,Inc" has plenty of in-jokes--from the Harryhausen's sushi bar to an opening like "The Right Stuff." It's a clever,poignant movie. Mike is delightfully neurotic,thinking up that he'll release the little girl to the outside world "using mostly spoons." Sully goes from scaring children to making them laugh. There's a brief,hilarious segment with the Abominable Snowman in the Himalayas with his sno-cones.

"Monsters,Inc" was better than I expected. I thought it would be sappy,childish fare. Instead,it'll have you laughing and thinking! It's fit for the whole family.

Movie Review: Monsters? Hardly.
Summary: 5 Stars

Love this movie. These "monsters" are lovable and cute. My daughter that is usually easily frightened loves this movie and so do I. Appropriate for adults and children.

Summary of Monsters, Inc.

Monsters generate their city's power by scaring children, but they are terribly afraid themselves of being contaminated by children, so when one enters Monstropolis, top scarer Sulley find his world disrupted. Plot Synopsis: James P. Sullivan (AKA "Sulley") and Mike Wazowski pick up their paychecks at Monsters Inc., the utility company that generates energy from the goose bumps of children. Sulley, the No. 1 scream-generator at the plant accidentally lets in a little girl into the monster world. Since monsters are actually terrified of children it's a major cause for alarm and a major headache for Sulley and Mike.
The folks at Pixar can do no wrong with Monsters, Inc., the studio's fourth feature film, which stretches the computer animation format in terms of both technical complexity and emotional impact. The giant, blue-furred James P. "Sulley" Sullivan (wonderfully voiced by John Goodman) is a scare-monster extraordinaire in the hidden world of Monstropolis, where the scaring of kids is an imperative in order to keep the entire city running. Beyond the competition to be the best at the business, Sullivan and his assistant, the one-eyed Mike Wazowski (Billy Crystal), discover what happens when the real world interacts with theirs in the form of a 2-year-old baby girl dubbed "Boo," who accidentally sneaks into the monster world with Sulley one night. Director Pete Doctor and codirectors David Silverman and Lee Unkrich follow the Pixar (Toy Story) blueprint with an imaginative scenario, fun characters, and ace comic timing. By the last heart-tugging shot, kids may never look at monsters the same, nor artists at what computer animation can do in the hands of magicians. --Doug Thomas
