After the amazing first movie i watched this movie and it was a huge let down. To much unnecessary action and violence. Mater is not funny at all as he was in the first movie. He fits much better as a supporting character. He is to much as a main character. I like Finn Mcmissile and Francesco howewer and the bad guys are ok. But i won't gonna watch the movie again.

Cars 2 is easily the best film from a usually unemotional, unoriginal studio -- Pixar -- that has finally mastered the art of cinema! This the most intelligent, emotional, and riveting movie since Pulp Fiction. The action is unique and exciting, the animation is stunning and pleasing, and the score is better than every other spy movie. Without all of these flawless technical achievements, Cars 2 would still stand out for its fabulous story and deep, complex characters.Many people who lack true taste in cinema would claim that the story is contrived and confusing, but that is only because they lack the mental capacity necessary to comprehend such a deep, complex, and emotional story that requires viewers to understand interesting and unusual, but ultimately rewarding situations. Many people also may object to making Mater the protagonist of this film. If anything, Mater is the greatest character f the entire Cars franchise because he has depth and emotion and feels unpredictable in his development, unlike Lightning McQueen who finds a way to be a spoiled brat in every single movie only to come around by the end. Mater does not come from the privileged racing background that McQueen and others come from. He is modest and compassionate, even if others don't understand him completely. Through Mater and his misadventures, John Lasseter intelligently reveals how understanding and empathy will always solve problems instead of create them. That is proven many times throughout this film when Mater is misunderstood by cars who believe themselves to be more superior than a plain, old tow-truck. Sure, many of the misunderstandings are small moments that are played for great comedy and successful laughs, but others are intelligent and deepen the characters and plot. It isn't until the end when Mater reveals to them who he truly is and the other cars come to understand him that all of the problems are resolved. That is why I believe that Cars 2 has the greatest message of all the Pixar films. Many may say Inside Out has the best message that encourages kids to embrace sadness, but that is only a good message if you enjoy seeing sad children cry and suffer. In the end, Cars 2 is a very rewarding experience, both for kids who only will enjoy this film for its face value entertainment and stunningly-animated action scenes and for the adults looking for a deep, intellectual story or compassion and understanding. Definitely a must-watch for any cinema-lover or person who wants to be nice. A+ 5/5 Stars 100% A Masterpiece.

First off,10 stars is too much, but i believe this movie needs a push in the ratings. I'm not in the hate club for this film. Let me ask the critics, wasn't this the last pixar film that showed how bold they were? They were bold enough to make a different film. After the terrible criticism this bold and different movie received, Pixar just lost their nerve. They made safe * good for rotten tomatoes* movies. What about inside out? You ask. Yes, its good at a creative level. But there is no strong opponent or conflict, leaving you unsatisfied about the story (i haven't seen coco, yet). Coming to this film, there is good action, but the story is too complicated for kids (Pixar films are aimed at adults too). Movie has a lot of cool scenes, and overall its a great film. Getting away from a racing plot line was good too.

Pixar making a bad movie was bound to happen someday, and this was it. As a stand- alone animated film, it's just an okay to mediocre kids' movie that is really stupid. As a Disney and Pixar film, it is a huge embarrassment. The main problem with this film is that the comic relief, Mater is the main character. Comic reliefs don't work as the main focus of the film, because they're not meant to carry the film. Most of the time, they just get annoying which is the case for this film. Also, the spy plot is very shallow and awkward considering the first film had nothing to do with spies, and the environmental message is very hammered in. Overall, this film is meh in the worst way possible, because it has so many glaring problems that don't get the film into bad territory.Final Rating: MEH
