Editorial Review:
From the Academy Award(R)-winning creators of TOY STORY comes the computer-animated film that captured the hearts of fans and critics everywhere. MONSTERS, INC., is "visually dazzling, action-packed, and hilarious" (Boston Herald), featuring groundbreaking animation, imaginative storytelling, and unforgettable voice talent. John Goodman stars as the lovable James P. Sullivan (Sulley) and Billy Crystal as his wisecracking best friend, Mike Wazowski. Top scarer Sulley and his enthusiastic Scare Assistant Mike work at Monsters, Inc., the largest scream-processing factory in Monstropolis. The main power source of the monster world is the collected screams of human children. Monsters believe children are dangerous and toxic, however, and they are scared silly when a little girl wanders into their world. Sulley and Mike do their best to return the girl home, but they face monstrous intrigue and some hilarious misadventures along the way. MONSTERS, INC., is "supremely clever -- fun for kids and adults alike" (CBS-TV). Treat yourself to the most entertaining movie of the year with all-new exclusive bonus features and animation for monster laughs and monster fun.
Description of Monsters, Inc.:
The folks at Pixar can do no wrong with Monsters, Inc., the studio's fourth feature film, which stretches the computer animation format in terms of both technical complexity and emotional impact. The giant, blue-furred James P. "Sulley" Sullivan (wonderfully voiced by John Goodman) is a scare-monster extraordinaire in the hidden world of Monstropolis, where the scaring of kids is an imperative in order to keep the entire city running. Beyond the competition to be the best at the business, Sullivan and his assistant, the one-eyed Mike Wazowski (Billy Crystal), discover what happens when the real world interacts with theirs in the form of a 2-year-old baby girl dubbed "Boo," who accidentally sneaks into the monster world with Sulley one night. Director Pete Doctor and codirectors David Silverman and Lee Unkrich follow the Pixar (Toy Story) blueprint with an imaginative scenario, fun characters, and ace comic timing. By the last heart-tugging shot, kids may never look at monsters the same, nor artists at what computer animation can do in the hands of magicians. --Doug Thomas
Monsters, Inc. Reviews:
Pixar + Blu-Ray = Win! 
2009-12-10 - I'm a Pixar fan. They can do no wrong in my eyes. I love getting these Blu-Rays. I notice things I've never noticed before. With the amazing HD quality I was able to see the smallest detail, for instance the Menu at the Sushi restaurant. Just shows how much detail and love goes into each frame.
The quality is stunning
2009-12-10 - These Pixar animated movies look absolutely stunning in HD. Even my wife who wouldn't tell the difference between rabbit ears and HD cable commented on how amazing the picture looked in this film. Bravo!
Beyond a "kids" movie, just a great movie
2009-12-10 - To call Monster's Inc. a "kid movie" wouldn't do it justice. The movie is a sweet, warm and funny movie that is easily amongst the best of its kind. When I first saw this movie I was going through that "kids movies are stupid" phase. I wouldn't watch kids movies, and generally had nothing positive to say about them. By happenstance I happened upon Monster's Inc., and was not just surprised by how much I liked it, but how much I loved it. I've watched it, re-watched it, and watched it again. I love the characters, the clever concept of Monsters who are afraid of kids, and the use of laughter being more powerful than any scream. I imagine this will be a movie I'll watch with my kids, who will watch it with their kids, and still be watched long after I'm gone. The movie is just that well made. If you haven't seen it, stop reading this review and watch it right now.
monsters Inc movie 
2009-12-09 - I got charged for this and never got my movie from the company, it is a few days past the date they said I would have it too.
Monsters inc
2009-12-09 - I have always been a huge fan of Monsters Inc but when I viewed it on Blu ray it took my enjoyment to the next level. My family and I really enjoy the vibrancy of the colors and the interactive screens. It was worth every penny spent.
