Pixar makes fine movies, although, judging by the reviews on Rotten Tomatoes, Metacritic and Critics' Choice, Cars 2 is the worst film it has ever made. Mainly, the Americans have watched one James Bond movie too many and cannot tolerate a Cars derivation of them, let alone one that features Middle-Eastern villains. And yet, since I have watched none, I find Cars 2 very entertaining in a lighthearted way. Moviegoers seem to agree too since the overall CinemaScore rating of this film is A-. That's an incredibly high score for a film that is so relentlessly panned by critics.

Professor Zundapp: Lightning McQueen cannot win the race.
Grem: Instead of saying "ka-chow, " he's gonna go "ka-boom!"
Trivia: While racing in Paris (also in the closing credits) you can spot a sign for a restaurant called "Gastows" which is a shout-out to Gusto's restaurant in Ratatouille.
Question: Was there a "winner" for the final race in London, or was it forfeited? As far as I could tell, the race was still going on when Mater took Lightning McQueen away to help figure out the lemons' plan involving him.
