Every Pixar Movie Ranked Worst To Best
17. Cars
If you're lucky enough to have seen Michael J Fox's charming Doc Hollywood, you probably never needed to see Cars, given how similar the storylines are. But there is something to be said for Pixar's take on the tale of a big shot trapped in small town America, and Cars arguably has Pixar's most pronounced moral code of all the studio's films.
Arcs matter, and watching Lightning McQueen going from being a greedy, conceited kid with a thirst for glory to a far more levelled, altruistic one is as well-drawn a story as Woody's development in Toy Story.
The characters are great, the designs are immediately (and rather cynically) appealing to kids and it's still way more than just an opportunity to sell millions of dollars worth of merch to susceptible children because it understood the need to grip adults too.
