On route across the country to the big Piston Cup Championship in California to compete against two seasoned pros, McQueen gets to know the town's offbeat characters.

I love this movie so much
Acensbart
Excellent but underrated film
TrueHello
Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

Perhaps Pixar's most childish and least emotionally resonant attempt thus far, this animated feature is based upon a nonsensical concept that isn't even entirely consistent within its own internal logic and also borrows most of its plot elements beat-for-beat from 'Doc Hollywood (1991)'. For most of the run-time I was surprised to find myself bored by the predictable plot peppered with thin characterisations and no laughs whatsoever. The finale picks up a little and provides some passing entertainment, though. It also has the hero learn a lesson that isn't necessarily set-up as obviously as the others. The lack of any emotional impact is what really compounds the flick as one of the coveted studio's weakest attempts. 5/10

If you want to know how you disregard all the hacks here on IMDb that are downvoting the really good movies, like this one, consider how California Adventures added a Cars land. The reason they did that (and added Cars rides) is because this movie is truly excellent, and Disney knew it.That and ticket sales tell you what's a truly popular movie, not the movie-lemmings that are downvoting this movie because of their other motives.Disney did not add a Wall-E land, for instance, and they never will. The reason why is because they know what is really a popular movie with the public.
