Every Pixar Movie Ranked Worst To Best

9. Monsters, Inc. (2001)

Monsters Inc Sully
Disney Pixar

From Pete Docter, who would go on to direct Up and Inside Out, came Monsters, Inc., a deeply moving, imaginative romp about monsters who travel to the human world to give kids lifelong nightmares.

At its centre, the film casts Billy Crystal and John Goodman as two monster besties who find themselves forming a bond with a human child, before realising their whole existence is something of a lie.

Monsters, Inc. moves at breakneck speed, offering up colourful set pieces, fantastically developed characters and some of the best laughs in the entire Pixar canon ("Put that thing back where it came from or so help me" is a better song than anything in Coco - that's just a fact).

Between Boo's lovable cuteness, Steve Buscemi's sneering villain and that final shot of Sulley being reunited with his new best friend, Monsters, Inc. is about as lovely and purely entertaining as any Pixar film there has ever been.
