Review of Cars 3 (2017) by 4Nick3 — 18 Feb 2018

*Minor Spoilers*.

Cars 3 is probably the most controversial Pixar film, because it belongs to a mixed franchise. But surprisingly, Cars 3 is the best of the series easily. Cars 3 has more in its mind than Lightning McQueen simply winning a race, but also trying to prove himself worthy to stay in the sport he loves, then becoming a mentor to Cruz Ramirez (Cristela Alonza) later. The story is great, so are the characters. Cruz is a nice addition to the trilogy; there are also a lot more new characters like Sterling (Lightings new sponsor voiced by Nathan Fillion), Jackson Storm (An unexplained protagonist trying to throw Lightning of his game voiced by Armie Hammer), Smokey (Doc Hudson's old crew chief, who later becomes Lightnings Crew Chief voiced by Chris Cooper), and a lot of other old racers. Almost everything in this movie is great, Cars 3 has great race scenes, outstanding animation, a great story, amazing movie trailers, and a fabulous musical score (composed by Randy Newman). Although the story is predictable, Cars 3 is a great closure to a very lopsided trilogy, it's the Cars 2 we asked for, and it's great because it pays a huge respect to Paul Newman and the original Cars Movie.
