OCH!

Cars 2, arguably the undoing of decades of hard, sweat inducing work from the wonder that is Pixar. What were they thinking?

Now it seems there is split opinion when it comes to Pixar’s Cars – many people see it as the weakest of Pixar’s films to date (which, to be honest, is still a pretty high achievement).
