Even though Larry the Cable Guy is in this movie I don't have much excitement for it, mostly because out of all the inanimate objects Pixar could have chosen cars interest me the lest.  Nor do I care for racing.

My dad and I went to go see it, we thought it was cute! Though we are both NASCAR fans... There were a few little things in there you wouldnt find funny or even catch if you didnt watch NASCAR, but it is cute.
The part about just taking a drive to take a drive - as I watched the movie I sighed remembering the times when I liked to drive around just because, now, gas is WAY too expensive to do that. $3+ a gallon? crazy
I liked the bit with John Ratzenberger at the end but thats all Ill say about that lest I be a spoiler

I took 3 of my nieces to see this movie. They liked it.  I thought it was well done, but I didn't find it to be that funny. It does have a good story-line and a nice little twist at the end (not a big twist, mind you).

I found Over the Hedge to be funnier, although it has a weaker story-line.

It's hard for pixar not to get the "cute" or "charm" factor right in their movies, it's one of the things they do best.  However, I tend to like their comedies better then their more ABC family movie-ish type of films.  I'll still see it, but I'm not rushing out to the theater like I would for a Toystory 3 or Monsters Inc 2.
