“Monsters at Work” isn’t on the same level as the two feature films, but it’s miles ahead of the likes of “The Return of Jafar” or “Kronk’s New Groove.”
-
What the show conspicuously lacks, versus the original, is a clear villain and the dollop of heart provide by the relationship between Sully and the human kid Boo. Instead, after setting up the premise the second episode mostly careens amiably from one perfunctory crisis to the next. Still, "Monsters at Work" takes a well-established title and parlays that into a good deal of fun.
-
Mike and Sulley don’t need to be part of Monsters at Work, but they’re fine, and the show around them is a promising enough start for this new phase of the brand’s existence. Like Tyler, Disney may at some point need to learn a new skill. Right now, though, low-stakes competence is enough.
-
If you love original movies and were expecting a third, “Monsters at Work” might be a bit disappointing. But if you can still appreciate the world-building (and Crystal’s unflagging energy), then the Disney+ series might still hit its laugh quotas.
