I don’t know why I bother rating animated movies, except that in some ways these reviews are my own version of collecting movie stubs.

Cars 2 is another of those animated movies that’s so hard to score. I mean, it’s cute and sweet for kids.

I didn’t hate it. But I can’t really score the directing or production very well because they were good enough.

I shouldn’t be surprised that I loved Up, because Pixar is very good at what they do. But I don’t generally love animated movies so I didn’t expect much.

I didn’t expect really adorable characters that were surprisingly easy to relate to and care about. And I don’t

I was surprised at how much I enjoyed Shrek 2, so I actually was sort of looking forward to Shrek 3.
