Scotty Burke It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review
adonis98-743-186503 Mike Wazowski and James P. Sullivan are an inseparable pair, but that wasn't always the case. From the moment these two mismatched monsters met they couldn't stand each other. "Monsters University" unlocks the door to how Mike and Sulley overcame their differences and became the best of friends. Monsters University is the prequel to the 2001 Monsters Inc. and for those who might expect something as good as that film might be left a little bit disappointed. But that doesn't mean that this is a bad movie no it's actually very fun and the voice acting excellent alongside the story and the animation plus loved young Mike he was pretty adorable. Definitely recommending it.
priceturner Monsters University is a fairly made film. The story and college movie premise aren't the strongest use for it, but one thing this Movie understands is its characters. The prequel gives us a better understanding of Mike and Sulley's friendship that makes for a very entertaining repitoir between the two. (thanks to Goodman and Crystal) The film may not match up to the original but in character development it more than delivers.
Prismark10 In the prequel to Monsters Inc Mike and Sully are students at Monster University but are unlikely to graduate and both cannot stand each other. Sully is too much of a jock whose talent is one scary facial expression and a family name and Mike is not scary enough.Dean Hardscrabble (Helen Mirren) expels them from the scaring course. That is until Mike comes up with a plan to win the Greek Council Scare Games and thereby his fraternity will be accepted into the College of Scaring.The plot is a mixture of the failing student needing to pass their tests in order to graduate. Think Billy Madison, Back to school, Revenge of the Nerds and Animal House as Mike and Sully's fraternity are full of nerds and outcasts.Mike and Sully learn to value each other and recognise the importance of teamwork but the film's message is an uneasy one. Are Pixar saying talent is something you are born with and cannot be acquired?In various studies it has been show that the US Marines have consistently turned people from a lower working class background, involved in petty crime, having minor drug problems into leaders of men in the battlefield.
declankearns-24728 Some of you people are going to hate me on this one.But its just my silly personal opinion.During the summer of 2013 I was over excited to see the long awaited (twelve years) prequel to Monsters Inc.However it was as soon as I watched it.First off, the plot is just one big cliché of other colleague films, like Revenge of the Nerds.Secondly the characters,they transformed Sulley from a kind and care loving monster into a stereotypical dumb jock and Mike into a stereotypical smart ass.Third the jokes,most of the jokes in this film just fall flat.At least if it was released in 2003,it would have gotten more likes.
