(1 - 44) of 44 OFCS Rating: 98% Fresh Page   1   "Pixar's latest animated gem."   ReelTalk Movie Reviews   Betty Jo Tucker 3/4 "works rather well until it introduces this annoying little girl as a plot device."   NutzWorld   Blake French 4/5 "Popcorn-tastic fun for kids and adults"   Filmcritic.com   Christopher Null 3/4 "On an artistic and creative level, "Monsters, Inc." may be the most visionary, intricate and offbeat product released by Pixar."   Cinemaphile.org   David Keyes 3/4 "A wildly imaginative, quality family film that both children and adults will be able to enjoy equally."   TheMovieBoy.com   Dustin Putman 3.5/4 "Monsters Inc. is a humbling reminder of what it's like to fear, imagine and hope."   Slant Magazine   Ed Gonzalez A "Pound for pound, no film this year has been as genuinely witty as Monsters, Inc."   EricDSnider.com   Eric D. Snider 4/4 "Monsters, Inc. is hilarious, exciting, miraculous to look at and is easily one of the best films of the year."   eFilmCritic.com   Erik Childress A "It made me laugh, gasp in amazement, almost cry. Then it made me happy for about a week. Then I saw it again. It's that good."   Film Blather   Eugene Novikov B "Despite some flaws, for the most part it offers a genial, family- friendly ninety minutes' worth of amusement."   One Guy's Opinion   Frank Swietek "A funny and frolicsome computer-animated feature that proves once and for all that laughter is a better renewable energy source than scares."   Spirituality and Practice   Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat 3.5/4 "Reaffirms the fact that a good animated film can be every bit as stimulating and emotionally satisfying a motion picture as a high quality live action endeavor."   ReelViews   James Berardinelli 3.5/4 "strikes a near-perfect balance between absolute hilarity and effective sentimentality"   Q Network Film Desk   James Kendrick 3.5/4 "Every bit as constructively clever as it is technologically brilliant."   Palo Alto Weekly   Jeanne Aufmuth 10/10 "A movie like Monsters, Inc. is a treasure."   Window to the Movies   Jeffrey Chen 2/4 "I don't mind flights of fancy in a film, but I do like a consistent tone. This film fails to deliver one."   MovieMartyr.com   Jeremy Heilman "The film is highly entertaining, imaginative and should please adults just as much as it does kids."   Screen It!   Jim Judy 7/10 "This film is no SHREK or TOY STORY 2 but it delivers some laughs, some cool-looking monsters, lots of fun for the kids and a touching ending."   JoBlo's Movie Emporium   JoBlo 8/10 "...love and kindness are a lot more powerful than a myriad of hatreds and dreads. I doubt that any of us outgrow our need to hear those kinds of lessons repeated."   DVDTown.com   John J. Puccio 8/10 "While it doesn't quite achieve the heights of either Toy Story film, Pixar's Monsters, Inc. is still one of the better family films you'll see all year."   Planet Sick-Boy   Jon Popick 3.5/4 "Es un pequeño paso adelante respecto de la animación por computadora, pero un gran salto en cuanto a la diversión de alto calibre."   Moviola   Jorge Avila Andrade 5 "The Pixar crew is so freakin’ creative I don’t know how they sleep at night without their heads exploding. Maybe they are issued special helmets."   Cinerina   Karina Montgomery 3/4 "Crafted with enough heart, skill and energy to entertain audiences of all ages."   Montreal Film Journal   Kevin N. Laforest A+ "Better than Shrek."   Reeling Reviews   Laura Clifford 9/10 "¿Qué podemos decir de Monsters Inc.? Vanguardia en animación con todo el aroma y calidad del sello Pixar"   Cinenganos   Luis Martinez 3.5/4 "A wonderfully imaginative and very funny film that shows not only another leap in technology for [Pixar] but also an impressive maturation of their storytelling abilities."   Mark Reviews Movies   Mark Dujsik 7/10 "Cute, likable, and a lot of fun."   rec.arts.movies.reviews   Mark R. Leeper 3/4 "Not that the monster puns aren't funny..."   Movie Habit   Marty Mapes "Though this comes from some of the same creative team as the Toy Story movies, Monsters, Inc. is aimed more at the kiddies: it's simpler, sweeter, less deeply affecting."   Flick Filosopher   MaryAnn Johanson 3.5/4 "A film that families will revisit in their living rooms many times over for many years to come."   Mr. Brown's Movies   Michael Dequina 4/5 "One thing counts head and shoulders above razzle-dazzle eye candy (or anything else, for that matter): the story and characters, and Monsters, Inc. introduces worthy additions to the Pixar pantheon."   Film Threat   Michael Dequina 3.5/4 "Monsters, Inc. breaks ground as a computer-animated feature while still remaining true to the concepts of characterization and story."   Aisle Seat   Mike McGranaghan 4/5 "It should be put in the dictionary to illustrate the word, "adorable.""   Movie Mom at Yahoo! Movies   Nell Minow 4.5/5 "The people at Pixar outdo even themselves with this high-energy action comedy."   Shadows on the Wall   Rich Cline "You've never seen a movie like this one, and, yet again, it's not just because it paints a pretty picture. On the contrary, it holds up a startingly bold mirror to our human condition and dares us to try to change our perceptions of ourselves."   TheFilmJournal.com (Ohio)   Rick Curnutte B+ "A few weak points appear… but the only reason they stand out is because we're so used to Pixar knocking the ball out of the park."   Flipside Movie Emporium   Rob Vaux 3/4 "This is a pleasant, amusing and entertaining film."   Laramie Movie Scope   Robert Roten A+ "The best kids' film of the year, hands down."   Reeling Reviews   Robin Clifford 9/10 "If Monsters Inc. isn't the "instant classic" that the Toy Story films are, well then it's pretty damn close."   eFilmCritic.com   Scott Weinberg "More a Disney flick than a Pixar production."   Eclipse Magazine   Sean O'Connell A "Triumphantly reconfirms the geniuses at Pixar as the 800-pound gorillas of modern animation and the reigning kings of family entertainment."   Decent Films Guide   Steven D. Greydanus 9/10 "The Pixar computer animation is amazing, more than twice as complex as in Toy Story 2, and the vocals are superb..."   www.susangranger.com   Susan Granger 3/4 "Make no mistake that Monsters Inc. would be a fine work nonetheless, but only half the film in any other time."   Film Freak Central   Walter Chaw 3.5/4 "Another humorous entry in the Pixar collection, though their overall quality seems to be slipping."   Oscar Guy   Wesley Lovell  (1 - 44) of 44 OFCS Rating: 98% Fresh Page   1
