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
Cars 2 started off pretty alright, but it quickly took a turn for the worst. It started in the place we know in love and I liked it, it was chill and fun. But Mater being the main character stunk, a little bit of Mater is good but if you add too much of him you're setting up for failure. The 2nd quarter is where it got bad, no good parts at all, Franchesco was your one of the mill show off nothing more nothing less. It felt so same old same old. Then it got even worse by the 3rd quarter. Mater, Finn, and Holly took up way too much of it with their boring side story. The only good thing was that the the race tracks were cool and unique. They tried to make up ground in the 4th quarter but it was just too late. Cars 2 is Pixar's biggest mistake and will be for quite sometime. 1st quarter 7/10 2nd quarter 4/10 3rd quarter 2.5/10 4th quarter 4.5/10

But the road to the championship becomes rocky as Mater gets caught up in an intriguing adventure of his own: international espionage. Cars 2 is probably the worst reviewed animated film or sequel i have ever seen it got a 39% on Rotten Tomatoes and a 6.3 in IMDb and honestly i get it the movie does have flaws the humor doesn't always work the film even turns into horror at some point then goes back to humor, action, spy, drama and it mixes everything in a way that sometimes it works and others doesn't another bad thing is that the characters that everyone wanted to see from the first film have a 10 to 25 minutes of screen time and the new characters Holley Shiftwell and Finn McMissile were pretty good but the villains lacked originality they looked and sounded more like a 1966 campy Batman villain but instead of being a humans they were cars. But in the end Cars 2 is an entertaining sequel that is not as good as the first film but it's not bad either i hope tho Cars 3 is way better and closer to the 1st movie 8/10.
