A-Z Movie Challenge – M

Monsters Inc, if only because once again it’s the first film to pop into my head. This 2001 film is all about a monster world, and the work of a special team of monsters that provide power for their city by scaring children. The great irony is that they also fear children, believing them to […]

I thoroughly enjoyed it. Bob is likeable as the hero trying to discover who he […]
