Critics Consensus

Cars 3 has an unexpectedly poignant story to go with its dazzling animation, suggesting Pixar's most middle-of-the-road franchise may have a surprising amount of tread left.

Cars 3 is a decent reconstituted Rocky with a bizarre faux feminist subplot and beautiful animation.

Irish Times

Cars 3, which picks up where the first, perfectly adequate, film left off, is by far the best instalment in the series.

Rated: 3/5

It's a colourful, spry enough ride, but it doesn't exactly reinvent the wheel.

Rated: 2/5

Deep Focus Review

Cars 3 has a well-worn, delivers-what's-expected quality that lacks vitality.

Rated: 2.5/4

The Cars films are the Arnold Palmer of the Pixar universe there is nothing overtly clever, revolutionary or daring about mixing sweet tea and lemonade, but the beverage goes down like a song as long as you dont mess up the batch.
