This is only the second movie the boys have ever attended. The first one? It was actually CARS 1 during our first few days in Turkey. Living in Turkey has really limited our ability to see movies as there isn't much showing at our tiny theatre on Base.
It was a completely sold-out show! The boys are wearing their new CARS shirts from Shea. Both boys sat through the entire show (other than potty breaks) completely in love with the movie!

Isaac giving a smile before his fever took over again. The poor little guy is quite under the weather -- we didn't realize how much until the end of the movie when he climbed on to JB's lap and snuggled up for the duration.

Did the boys enjoy the movie? :)
Did you like it?
Curious what your thoughts were on it? I've heard mixed reviews. A friend told me that visually it was great, but a bit intense and "over the head" of little ones.
Aaaahh. Good questions. I read the review on focus on the family ahead of time: family.org. My boys loved the movie and were intrigued the entire time. It did have more "violence" then Cars I as it was a "spy theme." A lot of cars: "die." It was also more intense than the first one in general -- just in comparison to small town radiator springs vs. Tokyo and Europe. However, Mader was very funny, it was very well done, and I wouldn't hesitate to let my boys watch it again or repeatedly. Hope that helps.
P.S. I wasn't a huge fan of Cars I the first time I saw it. I'm usually that way about kids movies. But they all grow on me, esp. as you get more of the jokes as you watch it enough times.
Funny, must be something about seeing Cars 2 in this family because when we got home from seeing the movie, I took Grace's temperature and it was 102! Hope Isaac's feeling better.
