Star racecar Lightning McQueen and the incomparable tow truck Mater take their friendship to exciting new places in “Cars 2” when they head overseas to compete in the first-ever World Grand Prix to determine the world’s fastest car.  But the road to the championship is filled with plenty of potholes, detours and hilarious surprises when Mater gets caught up in an intriguing adventure of his own: international espionage.  Mater finds himself torn between assisting Lightning McQueen in the high-profile race and towing the line in a top-secret mission orchestrated by master British super spy Finn McMissile and the stunning rookie field spy Holley Shiftwell.  Mater’s action-packed journey leads him on an explosive chase through the streets of Japan and Europe, trailed by his friends and watched by the whole world.  The fast-paced fun includes a colorful new all-car cast, complete with menacing villains and international racing competitors.

Special Features:

  • Cars Toon: Air mater
  • Toy Story Toon: Hawaiian Vacation
  • Director John Lasser Commentary
****My son is a big fan of Cars, any kind of car actually. So we have been anticipating the release of Cars 2 on dvd, since we missed it in the theaters. The minute my son saw the movie he screamed with excitement.
This movie is really packed full of action and thrills. The first movie was all about Lightning McQueen, well this movie seems to be more about Mater. When Lightning gets challenged to a race by italian car Franchesco, he accepts and takes his team including Mater with him around the world. After their first stop in Japan, mater becomes to much of a distraction and embarrassment to Lightning to keep around. Lightning loses the race and ends his friendship with Mater. Meanwhile Mater gets mistaken for a secret agent and see out on a spy mission and ends up saving the day.   I don’t want to giveaway the whole movie, so you have to go see it yourself. This is a must have holiday treat for any little Cars lover.
The Toy Story Hawaiian Vacation short, is hilarious. i thought it was very cute and had my kids laughing so hard. Air Mater is of course another one of Maters, tales of imagination that he could fly. They are always funny.
