Cars has got to be hands-down one of the cutest movies made this year. It's a story about a little car with a big ego named Lightning McQueen (voiced by Owen Wilson) who has his mind on one thing- winning the next big race and rising to major stardom. But unfortunately, fate has a different plan for the little guy, and McQueen soon finds his big ego cramped in a small town named Radiator Springs. There he is “sentenced” to complete some community service before he will be able to leave. While “serving his time” in the little town, McQueen begins to find that the world really doesn't revolve around big car races, and that friends are the most important prizes we can win in this life. A tasty mix of action, excitement and just a little smudge of engine grease, this movie is a must see for kids of all ages, and for car-lovers everywhere. moviepicks recommends this movie especially for it's clean story and it's uplifting message of love and friendship. Ka-chow!
