Plot: Director Michael Schultz follows up his critically acclaimed and commercially successful 'Cooley High' with this hilarious day-in-the-life tale set in modern day Los Angeles. At Sully Boyar's car wash, a juvenile, motley crew of city dwellers work their fingers to the bone waiting on the eccentric and sometimes haughty clientele. Throughout the day, the young men find time to indulge in personal pursuits: one fellow fantasises about the pretty waitress working at a local restaurant, a militant preaches politics, and the more disgruntled workers find a way to justify their laziness. As the day wears on, the many levels of oppression that control each individual's lives gradually become apparent. Luckily, Schultz and screenwriter Joel Schumacher don't dwell on the potentially depressing aspects of their subject matter proving that sometimes laughter is the best medicine, they stuff their film with enough verbal, visual, and situational humor to keep the audience laughing throughout. This can also be attributed to the performances by the all-star ensemble of performers, including Franklin Ajaye, Richard Pryor, George Carlin, Bill Duke, and Garrett Morris. Cementing the deal is the film's soundtrack, which features the soulful music of diva Rose Royce.

...Pixar's world where cars do the talking and the racing is turned upside down when Lightning McQueen is lost in Radiator Springs.
The plot of this film is , in my opinion, unsurprising, but it does bring together a diverse mix of characters. As with many [all?] Pixar productions, this is ultimately a feel-good movie.
There are elements of the film that will please different age groups at different levels; I enjoyed the film as an adult, and my children took different elements of enjoyment from it.
Finally, as with all PIxar movies in my experience, the animation, music score, and voice acting is impeccale good.
In summary, this is a feel-good movie aimed at older pre-teens, that has something that younger children can enjoy, and is so easy to watch that teens and above would find this a relaxing and fun film....

...with the whole family, and will be enjoyable for all generations.
I was given my cop of this DVD as a gift, so while I?m not too sure of the price of my DVD, it?s available on play.com for £14.99 with free delivery, however there is an offer currently on at Asda with two Disney dvds for £15, and Cars is included in this offer so this is a better deal.
Compared to other pixar films it is quite similar, as it shows a different point of life, showing racing from the point of view of the cars, like how the pixar film A Bug?s Life shows bugs having an adventure. Also it is similar in that it has a wide range of main characters, and a message.
The film had a massive amount of success, and it even managed to win the first Oscar for Best Animated Picture ever, it also performed really well with the critics and at the box office.
Overall I was...
