Cars 2 - Greg_phpbb3_import1 - 10-28-2011

It was a long flight. And despite the Queen's negative reaction to her own viewing of the film, I ventured forth. All I could think about while watching this film was how HK said the writing supervisor for all the Pixar films was gone and it was going to be interesting to see how the next batch of stories faired.

Not well. I think they tried to tell too many stories. Or had too many threads. And the main thread about Mater just made me think I don't want to watch Mater lead the movie. Everybody else was kind of there. Owen Wilson phoned it. Probably because he was second banana to Mater.

The one thing that did cause me to chuckle was the sight of the Ratatouille restaurant in Paris in this film. Although it went by so fast, I didn't quite get the car name.

The first film had a lot of heart as it talked about a decaying town bypassed by time and it's rebirth at the hands of a selfish race car driver. This one had a weird plot about the environment and spies and stupid tow trucks and friendship and blah blah. It was a hot mess.
