Top Critics' Reviews
Rotten: Along came the interstate, apparently, and ruined everything. Just like that darned Internet, I guess, or that superhighway stuff, or those dumb movies they make with computers nowadays.
Fresh: It achieves the near impossible, turning cars, trucks, tractors and farm harvesters into cute Disney characters whose fates you'll care about.
Fresh: Cars somewhat self-indulgently runs nearly two hours -- but overall, it's well worth the trip.
Fresh: It thunders ahead with breezy abandon, scoring big grins on its way.
