Animated
Everyone loves a Pixar movie. They can just do no wrong. Or can they? I saw Cars tonight and I have to admit to being slightly disappointed. Now, let’s be clear on this, Cars is far and away better than most of the animated fare that makes it onto the cinema screen these days, but as a Pixar movie, it’s lacking that certain something that makes them all so special. Full review, and I promise, on whatinterest soon.
Quick word about the short before hand, One Man Band. It’s nice to see that Pixar are still keeping up the tradition of having these little five minute shorts before the main feature, and this is a particularly good one. They’re never going to top the genius of Knick Knack of course, but this sure is fun.
And with all this Pixar talk, if you haven’t seen it already, go check out the trailer for next years Ratatouille and compare it with the other rat based comedy from Dreamworks, Flushed Away. The Pixar movie is just so much more vibrant, artistic, and original looking it practically jumps out of the screen at you.
