There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

Much of Disney's stuff is just too hokey and childish for its own good, but Monster's Inc. provides not only a sweet and sentimental story for viewers and some comic relief for children, but for adults this timely early 2000's story offers a chilling commentary on the corruption in modern corporate culture. The animation is flawless, the voice acting is superb, characters are alive right from their facial expressions to their unique monster appearances and the story itself opens the door for a lot of complexity. Benevolent ol' Mr. Waternoose might just be a common criminal, Randall is socially awkward beneath his evil workplace jerk exterior and Mike is more selfless than Sully gives him credit for. The charming scenery of Monstropolis is intricately detailed to boot. All in all this is a terrific film and probably one of the best of 2001.

One of the best kids movie of all time. Monster Inc. brought everything and more to the table. It was able to make kids to grown laugh their pants off. It was capable of bringing grown men to tears and most of all, bring any and everybody together. Monster Inc. showed kids that sometimes what you think is a monster might actually be a friend. It showed how people could be different and come from different worlds but still be friends and love one another. I love the movie because you get to see all these different characters who love themselves even with their different facial or body features. Monster Inc is a movie that will last forever and ever. Monster Inc is its own Lion King. A movie even when your old and gray you would still watch and want your grand kids to watch too.

Tables turn as a charming young girl bursts through her own closet door and sends shivers through the monsters on the other side. Everything about this is wonderful, from the essentially Pixar concept to the warm, sentimental relationships at its core. Even the animation has held up quite well, which isn't always the case with these early CG efforts: humans still look a bit wonky, but most of the cast seems drawn straight from the pages of a Caldecott winner and that kind of bright, absurd character works beautifully. John Goodman and Billy Crystal carry most of the heavy-lifting as Mike and Sulley, blue collar creatures with an easy, free-flowing rapport, but three-year-old Mary Gibbs threatens to steal the scene every time she gets the chance with her adorable almost-words and penetrating good cheer. Exceedingly well-balanced, with the kind of imagination that keeps mouths gaping and so much heart, even the boogeyman might have to fight back a tear or two. One of my favorites of the entire Pixar catalog, it swings hard and connects on every level. Sweet, sad, silly and stupendous, a timeless classic that I was glad to share with my kids.
