Cars 2
An animated automotive espionage adventure (say that quickly five times) that improves upon the leaden moralizing of its predecessor, if not in strikingly original ways, Cars 2 delivers base-level entertainment on a familiarly laid racetrack. While unfolding against a sumptuous visual backdrop, the movie doesn't have the same adventurousness of spirit that marks Pixar's best efforts. An utterly delightful new seven-minute short featuring Woody, Buzz and the Toy Story gang uniting to put on an impromptu vacation for Ken and Barbie precedes the feature presentation.
