My Take on the Movie
This was another great Disney movie that my kids really enjoyed. While there are some parallels in the story between the Cars movie and this (IMHO), the messages of perseverance, friendship, and teamwork are all ones that I want my girls to learn.
There are some great voice actors in this and you get some funny anecdotes and puns throughout too, and this for me is another great aspect of the movie. I enjoyed the artistry of the movie and loved the action that is packed into the film as well.
If you love Disney movies, planes or just a feel good movie, then this is definitely a family friendly one that I would highly recommend to all!
