“Sally and Bob are factory workers who earn energy by scaring people’s children. However, the monster world thinks children are toxic, and when a little girl, Owl, sneaks into the factory, she must be sent home before it’s too late.“
Acclaimed by critics, in addition to being a huge commercial success, Monsters Inc. grossed over $577 million worldwide, making it the third highest-grossing film of 2001. The film even won an Oscar for Best Original Song. Nominated to be the first to win Best Animated Feature – a missed opportunity for Shrek that speaks volumes for the quality of the project in question.
A prequel was born from its success… 12 years later! And for the nostalgic, a little binge-watching session is in order now, as yesterday was the birthday of the latter, Monstres Academy, which was released 10 years ago on July 10, 2013 in France.
