Cars
~
I’m actually rooting for this family movie to make box office hit. Unfortunately here, I’m surprised it hasn’t gotten the same buzz as Finding Nemo or Ice Age2 did. I deduced that it was probably because only a handful could relate to automotives. For a third world country, not everyone can tell who makes brands like Camry, Focus, Skyline, Evolution and so on.
Anyway, the movie follows the archetype Disney plot to the book. A popular, self-centered guy/girl is changed after spending some time on a different place and with a different but truer set of friends. But this is not saying that the movie was nothing more than the ordinary. On the contrary, Disney has this way of presenting simple moral lessons via different and very creative themes. Cars presents a world void of human beings. The planet is inhabited by automobiles of different types and makes.
The movie isn’t as hilarious as Madagascar. Knowing Disney, they like to keep to clean humour. But it’s still not as funny as Nemo. Nevertheless, Cars can be viewed as a more serious animated film because if you consider the characters, they’d all have to be at least 25 years old. There is really a lot of serious moments in this movie that will definitely appeal to children and adults alike.
I love Cars exactly because of those serious moments. The lead characters’ display of moral fiber is touching and tear-enducing. Oh, and I like the gag they did whenever the truck Mater hooks up and tows the lead character McQueen. It’s funny because in humanoid terms, it’s equivalent to hooking Owen Wilson up on his ass.
