From the Academy Award(R)-winning creators of TOY STORY comes the world's #1 computer-animated film that captured the hearts of fans and critics everywhere. MONSTERS, INC., is "visually dazzling, action-packed, and hilarious" (Boston Herald), featuring groundbreaking animation, imaginative storytelling, and unforgettable voice talent. John Goodman stars as the lovable James P. Sullivan (Sulley) and Billy Crystal as his wisecracking best friend, Mike Wazowski. Top scarer Sulley and his enthusiastic Scare Assistant Mike work at Monsters, Inc., the largest scream-processing factory in Monstropolis. The main power source of the monster world is the collected screams of human children. Monsters believe children are dangerous and toxic, however, and they are scared silly when a little girl wanders into their world. Sulley and Mike do their best to return the girl home, but they face monstrous intrigue and some hilarious misadventures along the way. MONSTERS, INC., is "supremely clever -- fun for kids and adults alike" (CBS-TV). Treat yourself to the most entertaining movie of the year with all-new exclusive bonus features and animation for monster laughs and monster fun.

Customer Rating: Summary: Great Moive Comment: We bought this used and its in great shape and its a wonderful movie for the whole family! Customer Rating: Summary: Satisfied Comment: The movie arrived on time and works great. I would make another purchase from this seller. Customer Rating: Summary: Fresh and Original Comment: This was the most original Pixar film since Toy Story, in my opinion. Keep it up Pixar! Customer Rating: Summary: One of the best movies ever Comment: I have watched this movie 100 times with my kids. We really, really enjoy this movie. One of our favorites! Mike, Sully, and Boo are some of the greatest characters ever. This movie is very easy to follow for young kids, and has just enough higher brow humor to entertain adults.
It is also a movie with a lot of love (even to different species who in the past were natural "enemies"), and a good lesson in tolerance for ALL our differences.
Great movie for every one to watch and enjoy! Customer Rating: Summary: It's a scream! Comment: "Monsters,Inc" is one of PIXAR's cleverest creations. It's about the Cyclopean Mike (Billy Crystal) and the shaggy Sully (John Goodman) whose career is to make children scream, keeping Monsteropolis powered. They collect children's screams. However,their city is having an "energy crisis" since children aren't as easily scared. Sully has been employee of the month--but the jealous salamander Randall (Steve Buscemi) will do anything to get ahead. Then,a little girl named Boo scares Monsterpolis... On the way, Sully develops paternal feelings for Boo,and it's learned that the monsters fear children.
"Monsters,Inc" has plenty of in-jokes--from the Harryhausen's sushi bar to an opening like "The Right Stuff." It's a clever,poignant movie. Mike is delightfully neurotic,thinking up that he'll release the little girl to the outside world "using mostly spoons." Sully goes from scaring children to making them laugh. There's a brief,hilarious segment with the Abominable Snowman in the Himalayas with his sno-cones.
"Monsters,Inc" was better than I expected. I thought it would be sappy,childish fare. Instead,it'll have you laughing and thinking! It's fit for the whole family.
