Cars (DVD)

(Featuring the voices of Owen Wilson, Paul Newman, Bonny Hunt, Cheech Marin, Michael Keaton and others.)

This is a definite “I gotta own it!” DVD!

With only one race to go before the end of the current season, three cars tie for first place. En route to the final and deciding event, one car – selfish hot-shot car Lightning McQueen – falls foul of the law in the small off-the-freeway town of Radiator Springs, and is sentenced by crusty Judge Doc Hudson (Paul Newman), a former racer himself, to re-surface the road he has just damaged. While going about his task, he meets many friendly cars like Mater the tow truck; (Larry The Cable Guy); attorney Sally Carrera (Bonnie Hunt); tyre dealer Ramone (Cheech Marin); veteran Lizzie (Katherine Helmond), and many others who have seen better times for Radiator Springs. As he falls in love with Sally, so Lightning begins to fall in love with the town as well. And much to his amazement: in the final race he finds his entire pit crew’s comprising his new-found friends - including Doc Hudson!

With Pixar’s peerless animation, and the wonderful Oscar-nominated song “Our Town,” I bet you’ll fall in love with the whole movie too.

Pixar's latest movie features the talents of Owen Wilson and Steve McQueen, set in the world of car racing. Lightning McQueen is a cocky, rookie race car. Speeding on his way to a big race, he crashes into Radiator Springs, destroying lots of the inhabitants belongings. In order to make up for what he did, the cocky roadster is sentenced to community service. Though he will do anything to get away from the work, McQueen must learn to respect and bond with the Radiator Springs inhabitants in order to get out of the town and back on the racetracks.

Loaded with a full tank of electrifying bonus features, the DVD includes an exclusive all new animated short "Mater and The Ghostlight", starring Mater, the rusty but trusty tow truck. This exclusive bonus feature was produced by the creative and technical teams who developed CARS. The story is set in the town of Radiator Springs and tells the legend of the Ghostlight - a mysterious blue light that haunts the town and its residents. Also included for the first time on DVD is Pixar's "One Man Band" (Best Animated Short 2005) which played with the film in theatres and spins the hilarious tale of two competing street musicians vying for a little girl's attention. Revving up and rounding out the CARS DVD bonus features is the fascinating behind-the-scenes "Inspiration for Cars," an exciting journey with John Lasseter that explores how the story of CARS was born, as well as deleted scenes and a special sneak peek at the highly anticipated next Disney/Pixar feature RATATOUILLE.

This is a great movie it's suitable for everyone. You'll laugh and cry and even learn a lesson about thinking that you are better than anyone. I will recommend this to anyone with kids or even if you are an adult and just looking for something funny and sweet to watch over the holidays. Nice and relaxing but it still rings true.

Having watched this more times than I can remember, I am now enjoying it with my 2 year old son. There is something for everyone in this film. Good witty humour for adults, loads of cars racing around for the little ones and lots of great memories made with time spent with the little ones.
