Monsters University is lightweight, predictable fun kids will enjoy

That title isn’t exactly a glowing endorsement, is it? Monsters University is the prequel to Monsters, Inc. which was released in 2001.

What initially makes the story engaging is that the dad is Steve Schirripa, actor and star of numerous TV hits including The Sopranos and The Secret Life of An American Teenager.
