Slow lane dullsville... - Cars Reviews

Owen Wilson is not a funny person. Just coz he's done some comedy doesn't mean he can bring out the funnies. The story itself is unengaging. The script lacks the clever punch and witty dialog that the Incredibles had plus the characters themselves are poorly crafted. Though there are funny moments, it is far and few in between. Sometimes the story suffers from too much growing up talk to the point where it bores you senseless. This is by far the worst Pixar production. Disney would probably think it bought a dud by now but heck. As long as Pixar can levarage on the other successful franchises, then there is still hope. One thing about the movie is the superb visuals. The flow of the movement and the animation is first rate. How the camera pans from one scene to the next is a good indication of good visual direction. The graphics are beautifully rendered but sadly this alone isn't going to save this film.
