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

 Popular for years to come! September 5, 2008
This movie is action-packed, bright, fast, and fun. It's no wonder why it is still popular after two years of being released. I have a 16-month old son, and a son going on three years old. They love this movie! Great music... I plan to purchase the soundtrack (if available) for Christmas for listening in our car. Enjoy!

Very slow delivery compared to other DVD I purchased at same time. Asian copy, have to select English from the language list. No booklet inside like other NEW DVD's. Plays ok so far.
 CARS September 5, 2008
One of Disney's best, love this movie! Excellent on blu ray, both video & sound. Great addition to my HD collection. Highly recommend it. Enjoy!
Adorable! August 29, 2008
I bought this movie for our 2 year old son, and he LOVES it! We've probably watched it every day for 3 weeks straight, and I'm actually not sick of it yet! The animation is amazing on Blue Ray; in some of the scenes, the cars actually look real. And there are so many little details that went into this movie that make it really special, like how the engine noises of the different types of cars are accurate (like the purr of the Porsche).
My favorite scenes are Guido's 3 second pit stop, and the tractor tipping scene (I crack up every time Mater says, "That's Frank!")
This is a fun movie to watch, even if you're not a racing fan. And I think this is a cute movie for kids of all ages. Every day when we come home, our son says, "Mama, wace car, wace car!"
Amazing PQ and SQ! August 29, 2008
If you are looking for a movie to show off your new Blu-Ray player, this is it! The picture and sound quality are amazing. The opening sequence is one that you should have your sound system cranked up for. I also own this movie on regular DVD but it was like watching a new movie. This is a favorite in our family for both kids and adults.
