Monsters University (3D)

Cast:  Billy Crystal, John Goodman, Steve Buscemi,
Helen Mirren
Director: Dan Scanlon

Monster’s University, a prequel to Monsters Inc. is not as stunning as the first one but a clever climax and colourful characters save it from going down.

Mike (Billy Crystal) and Sully (John Goodman) go to university to learn the art of scaring kids to gather screams to convert into power. There, Sully acts all-knowing and tries to pull down Mike, while Mike is determined to make it big in the scaring course. They are despised by Dean Hardscrabble (Helen Mirren) who doesn’t believe that they can ever be good at it. They have to prove her wrong by taking part in the annual scare games.

The movie brings out a true feel of being in a university with all the bullying, jealousy, friendship and fun and games.

This one is not as funny as the first but it has more exciting characters and all of them are lively and unique. It is visually appealing and aimed at children.
