Review of Monsters, Inc. (2001) by Thrall T — 24 Oct 2016
Pixar has ventured into a whole new world; the monster world. In Monsters, Inc., the monsters that used to haunt you at night live in a town called Monstropolis. Mike Wazowski (Billy Crystal) and roommate James P.
Sullivan (John Goodman) work together everyday at Monsters, Inc.; the world's largest power company. When Mike makes reservations to go on a date with girlfriend, Celia (Jennifer Tilly), Sully goes to fill out Mike's paperwork and stumbles across a door.
Naturally he opens it to see if there are any monsters in there before he sends it back, but he finds out that no one is in there. When he leaves he discovers a human child; the first human child that Monstropolis has ever seen.
Humans are toxic to monsters, so this is not to be taken lightly. The rest of the movie is full of humor, seriousness, and a whole lot of screaming. Monsters, Inc. presents itself well with humorous lines, and a cast that really put the movie together.
On the other hand, there are a lot of characters in the movie that have just one or two lines, while the rest of the movie is based on the same four characters. The movie also has a lot of scenes that seem to last forever, with no real direction.
Overall, I give this movie five out of five stars. Bring the kids, grab your candy and get ready for a lot of laughs.
