So, tonight I went to BlockBuster and rented Cars. It is a pretty enjoyable movie. It keeps you in despite the fact that the plot is quite predictable.

Basically, this race car, Lightning McQueen [voiced by Owen Wilson], is in a race for the 'Piston Cup.' It ends up in a three way tie, and a tie-breaker is set up a week from then in California. Along the way, McQueen gets lost, almost causes several accidents, and destroys a town's main street. The town votes to have him rebuild the road.

And you know how it goes from there. Lead falls in love with little town vixen. Older character is secretly a [enter sport name here] hero, but now disowns the sport. Bumbling sidekick for the stupid jokes. Eventually Lightning doesn't want to leave, but who saw that coming? :roll:

The animation is top notch, as always with Pixar. This movie continues their amazing track record of good movies. Voice work is amazing, including Paul Newman, Bonnie Hunt, Tony Shalhoub, and several others. I will say one thing about the voice actors, Larry the Cable guy is absolutely horrid up against these mostly B-List actors. He would fit right in, in a lower quality movie, however his voice work here reeks.
