Movie Review: Cars

Cars is a delightful movie. Animation that is so good that you almost mistake it for the real thing sometimes, great drama, endearing characters, a wistful reminder of the Norman Rockwell times, a good story -- cocky, unwelcome outsider and a bunch of suspicious locals who nonetheless develop respect and love towards each other (I know it's clichéd, but still) -- all in all, more than worth the price of the ticket. Oh, forgot to mention this: there are no humans in the story; it's all cars.

And to think I almost didn't get to see the movie, thinking it would be yet another syrupy piece of crap.
