Cars 2

Film review by: Witney Seibold

 

From what I understand, Pixar’s “Cars” (2006) earned the lowest box office numbers of any of their films. This is not to say that it was a failure, but it was a low point for the studio. Ask any critic, and they usually rate “Cars” as the worst of the Pixar canon, which, mind you, is still a compliment, as it has consistently put out quality product since day one. Why, then, did John Lasseter decide to direct a sequel to “Cars?” I hate to sound cynical, but I suspect it was for merchandising purposes.
