"Cars 2" is probably the weakest of any Pixar film, though as most know, that doesn't really mean that it's bad. In fact, the film is actually very entertaining and cute, yet it doesn't hold a candle to "Toy Story 3", "Finding Nemo", or "Wall-e". This film was the first Pixar film in recent years that doesn't aim for the tears, and instead is far more light-hearted and silly. Lightning McQueen (Owen Wilson) has now headed back to the race track, invited to race in three international races in Tokyo, Italy, and London. He is accompanied by his friend Mater (Larry the Cable Guy) who continues to embarrass McQueen in front of the cameras. Meanwhile, there is a secret plot to eliminate all alternative fuels across the world, and Finn McMissile (Michael Caine) is a secret agent attempting to foil the cars' evil plans. I suppose the moral is never to ask your friends to change, but it was obvious that this film wasn't trying to teach a lesson, more just entertain young car fans. Though not the best Pixar film yet, it certainly isn't a dud for the dud-less film company. 6 out of 10 stars.
