Just enjoy the ride (no pun intended) - Cars Reviews

(I saw the movie at a Emeryville Schools Benefit showing in Pixar on 5/3 and...) From a cinematic and originality point of view (i.e. the Pixar trademark quirkyness and jokes, like seeing "Emeryville" on a traffic sign), this movie is another Pixar classic. The story did take awhile to get going (I kept thinking, "So how/when is Lightning going to get out of this town") and isn't completely original (in fact, the plot is very similar to Michael J Fox's "Doc Hollywood" from the 90's), but the payoff in the end was worth it (great moral story for all, especially kids. I admit I was a bit choked up at the end). My advice for people going to see this movie is: don't compare this movie to previous Pixar movies (e.g. Finding Nemo) or you might be disappointed (the story is a bit slower than Finding Nemo and The Incredible). In other words, don't critique it too hard against other movies and just enjoy the ride (no pun intended). -Ron in Emeryville PS STAY THROUGH THE CREDITS!!!
