Disney-Pixar proudly presents the hilarious story of how two mismatched monsters met and became lifelong friends in a movie screaming with laughter and oozing with heart. Ever since college-bound Mike Wazowski (Billy Crystal) was a little monster, he’s dreamed of becoming a Scarer – and he knows better than anyone that the best Scarers come from Monsters University (MU). But during his first semester at MU, Mike’s plans are derailed when he crosses paths with hotshot James P. Sullivan, “Sulley” (John Goodman), a natural-born Scarer. The pair’s out-of-control competitive spirit gets them both kicked out of the University’s elite Scare Program. With their dreams temporarily dashed, they realize they will have to work together, along with an odd bunch of misfit monsters, if they ever hope to make things right.
So I wasn’t sure a sequel or prequel in this case could be worth while, but Monsters University is amazing! It is the story of Mike as a little monster who had a big dream of being a scarer. He shows determination, confidence and the smarts to make it to college and into the Scaring Program. He meets Sully the first day and they are huge opposites. First they compete against each other but learn that to make it they need to work together. They become true friends and show awesome teamwork and make a few friends along the way. It is a great story with great lessons for kids. We laughed and laughed throughout this movie, which by the way we have watched more times than I can count already! The animation is so bright and colorful, its hard not to like it.
