This movie combines so many different elements that it's hard to review them all at once. First, there's the central character's drama. After he's gotten good and used to the adulation his racing career brings, it has to stop. A 'medical' condition threatens to kill him if he pursues that 110% lifestyle. So, he sets his sights elsewhere - not lower (as he was to find), but elsewhere, and among others, each with a past of their own.
Then there's a "little engine that could" subtext, with plenty of setbacks. There's also the inspiring thought that a hero doesn't need to be a hero to anyone, or even known to be heroic. ("How do I get my picture on that wall?") There's more in that thought that I realized at first, the notion of being your own hero, and a real one, not just an ego-fantasy. Also, self-worth through achievement instead of an entitled feel-goodism, and seeing many contributors making very different contributions, and the snarky sense of comeuppance when that self-serving bureaucrat gets his mud-flaps pinned back, it all adds up to a healthy view of what a truly good life can be, in terms kids can grasp.
But John Lassiter produced this and that's as good as a promise signed, sworn, and notarized saying you'll get technical excellence welded to warm characterization. Go back to his 1986 'Luxo Jr,' and give that talent thirty years to mature - that's what you'll see here. And, as a Disney flick, you have some assurance of kid-safeness
This review is from Planes: Fire & Rescue [DVD] [2014]

Although my 3yr old son loves them both, I feel they did a better job this time than the first. A better storyline.

Love Pixar! Love Disney! Enjoyed Cars and Planes. But this Planes sequel seemed to suffer from either writers block or management...the story is thin, the plot is watered down too much, character development and evolution nearly missing. Cars 2 was a strong sequel and had its own problem. But as much as I liked Dusty in Planes, I didn't feel as engaged this time around. The story was just ok in my book, and suffered maybe from the additional characters. Most young kids will enjoy it regardless, but there wasn't as much adult level entertainment in this as in other Pixar greats.
Recommended if you have kids, grandkids, or just collect Pixar, Disney, Buena Vista movies.

Planes Fire & Rescue is a wonderful movie. All of your old friends from Crop Wise Junction are back to celebrate the Annual Corn Festival. When there is a fire that jeopardizes their Beloved Festival. Dusty has to make some tough decisions about his career as a racer, and he goes to get trained by the new cast of the amazingly brave & courageous Fire Rescue team. Join Dusty & the gang for new adventures in this great sequel.

Great story. Dusty and the other characters have great personalities the kids will love, and the humor is enjoyable by kids and adults alike. My kids didn't necessary "love" Planes, but Fire and Rescue...they think is awesome. Dad does too. Great soundtrack and you can never go wrong with ACDC to make the firefighting more exciting. A great addition to your Blu-ray library.

I bought this Disney movie for my grandson for his birthday along with the talking plane. He loved it. He wanted me to watch it with him and I did. I thought it would be a movie for young kids, like a cartoon, but I must say I enjoyed every minute of it. It was very funny and it had some lines only an adult would appreciate. I highly recommend this movie to everybody.

We always have to skip parts in kids movies because they are too scary but this one was awesome and didn't have to skip anything. Suspenseful at times but not scary. Our kids also read the books before watching the movie so they knew the plot and that helped as well. Great film and our kids liked the bonus features on this package as well.

Omg, this movie is so awesome. I love being able to see it in 1080P, as well as be able to share the dvd with friends or family that don't have a blueray player. I also LOOOVE being able to have a digital copy also that I can watch whenever I want. I strongly suggest this movie for kids and adults who like fun, funny movies.

As an aerospace engineer with a 2 year old, I appreciate the chance to get my kid excited about planes. I actually work on one of the air crafts featured in the film (That might be why I bought it). This sequel explores the world of special mission aircraft and all the cool things that can be done with them. Good story for adults and kids
