DVD Reviews of Cars (Full Screen Edition)

DVD Review: Inspirational
Summary: 5 Stars

Cars is another winner from the combined efforts of Disney and Pixar. Anyone who watches this movie will be able to relate to a character, from the spiteful Hudson Hornet/Doc Hudson to the easygoing Mater. A star studded cast of voice actors gives this film recognizable voices for anyone. Some of the actors are: Paul Newman (one of my favorites in this film), Owen Wilson (Marley and Me, Drillbit Taylor, Night at The Museum), Larry the Cable Guy, (another one of my favorites) and John Ratzenberger, who has appeared in all the Pixar film and plays his most prominent role in this one. The general gist of the movie is a stuck-up rookie racecar, namely Lightning McQueen, getting arrested in a small Route 66 town called Radiator Springs, where life is mostly about trying to passing through tourist to buy something from one of the characters stores. Over the course of the movie, you find that the town doctor was the best racecar around in his younger days, but had a big crash that ended his career. He know does not want anything to do with the racecar that comes to town. McQueen learns the importance of slowing down and enjoying the ride on the Highway of Life. He helps everyone in the town, and even restores the 60's neon lights in the town. Also, he falls in love with the town attorney, a 911 Porsche. But the best part is the end, when McQueen has a chance to win the Piston Cup, but instead helps one of the greats (called "The King" in the movie and modeled after Richard Petty's Plymouth Firebird and voiced by Petty himself) finish his final race. This movie has the best moral of any of the Pixar movies. An added bonus is all the retro cars, from a Model T to a 50's Chevy Impala. Plus there are some great punch lines as with all the Pixar movies. I've saved the best part of this movie for last. The soundtrack is simply awesome. Featuring Rascall Flatts, Sheryl Crow, and Brad Paisley, I would rate it as one notch below the soundtrack of Rocky IV, which has the best soundtrack of all time. Overall this is a phenomenal film. HIGHLY RECCOMMENDED!!!!

DVD Review: Last of the Conventional Pixar
Summary: 4 Stars

Pixar has always been a great movies. Cars is no exception. However, in terms of movie history, Cars was the last of the traditional Pixar. Since then the stories have been more unconventional, following a rat who wants to cook, a robot love story, and a man who moves his house with balloons. So, its fun to watch Cars, which follows the more traditional story of a hot shot car who learns the value of a little town life. The characters are great, mader especially is funny, and the movie makes clever use of the car world. Everything is car related, from cattle to the bugs (watch closely and you'll see). Also, I appreciate the basis of the story, the lost world of Route 66, where people cared about there stop, rather than drove past only stopping for gas. In short, the movie is a resounding success that should be seen. Also, the blu-ray is gorgeous. It is demo quality, seeing the reflections off every car, every detail in the ground, and you really feel the speed during the races. Overall, Cars is a great movie, that looks amazing. Recommended for fans of fun movies for a younger audience.

DVD Review: Great Movie
Summary: 5 Stars

Very cute movie, entertaining and even a useful story line. My 2 and 3 year old boys are obsessed. I hope they come out with a 2nd one that is just as good as the first!

DVD Review: Cars on blu-ray Rocks!
Summary: 5 Stars

Cars is the first movie I ever bought on Blu-Ray about a year or 2 ago. It does not disappoint. Amazing picture, the details are just jaw dropping. The movie itself has a good story and it is fun. I still watch it from time to time even though I have no children and I am almost 50 years old. I love the soundtrack too.

DVD Review: laps the field
Summary: 5 Stars

This review is short and sweet. What a wonderful movie for anyone of any age! It presents values without preaching, it has humor, and it aptly displays a nostalgia for days when driving the highways of America was an experience, not merely a means of getting from here to there as fast as one can. Thanks to this movie, I try to find stretches of road that evoke Americana when I travel. It doesn't hurt to venture more than a mile off the interstate. In fact, it's quite pleasant. And "Cars" reminds us of that.

Description of Cars (Full Screen Edition)

From the acclaimed creators of TOY STORY, THE INCREDIBLES, and FINDING NEMO comes a high-octane adventure comedy that shows life is about the journey, not the finish line. Hotshot rookie race car Lightning McQueen (Owen Wilson) is living life in the fast lane until he hits a detour on his way to the most important race of his life. Stranded in Radiator Springs, a forgotten town on the old Route 66, he meets Sally, Mater, Doc Hudson (Paul Newman), and a variety of quirky characters who help him discover that there's more to life than trophies and fame. Revved up with a sensational soundtrack, featuring Rascal Flatts, Sheryl Crow, John Mayer, James Taylor, and others, plus exciting bonus features, including the exclusive short movie "Mater And The Ghostlight," CARS is full of freewheeling fun for everyone.
There's an extra coat of hot wax on Pixar's vibrant, NASCAR-influenced comedy about a world populated entirely by cars. Lightning McQueen (voiced by Owen Wilson) is the slick rookie taking the Piston Cup series by storm when the last race of the season (the film's high-octane opening) ends in a three-way tie. On the way to the tie-breaker race in California, Lightning loses his way off Route 66 in the Southwest desert and is taught to stop and smell the roses by the forgotten citizens of Radiator Springs. It's odd to have such a slim story from the whizzes of Pixar, and the film pales a bit from their other films (though can that be a fair comparison?). Nonetheless, Cars is another gleaming ride with Pixar founder John Lasseter, who's directing for the first time since Toy Story 2. There's the usual spectrum of excellent characters teamed with appropriate voice talent, loads of smooth humor for kids and parents alike, knockout visuals, and a colorful array of sidekicks, including a scene-stealing baby blue forklift named Guido. Lightning's plight is changed with the help of former big-city lawyer Sally Carrera (Pixar veteran Bonnie Hunt), the town's patriarch Doc Hudson (Paul Newman), and kooky tow truck Mater (Larry the Cable Guy). The Incredibles was the first Pixar film to break the 100-minute barrier, but had enough story not to suffer; Cars, at 116 minutes (including some must-see end credit footage), is not as fortunate, plus it never pierces the heart. Trivia fans should have bonanza with the frame-by-frame DVD function; the movie is stuffed with in-jokes, some appearing only for an instant. Ages 5 and up. --Doug Thomas
