Cars, the Game
Strengths: Fun to Play. Has "Compact" mode for younger ones. Great Open areas to just drive around. Same characters you know and love from the movie. They also added some Great new characters.
Weakness: Feels easy. Controls are cumbersome.
This is a great car / racing game for younger kids. Adults can still have fun and enjoy playing with the kids on the game. Same Great CGI (animation) and voices, as from the movie.

Great movie and great game.
Strengths: Very fun to be able to just fool around and drive just about anywhere. Like the races.
Weakness: None
This game is a lot of fun to play especially with younger children who don't understand but can still drive the car. Great little challenges and enough to learn on the game.

Good game for the kids
Strengths: Easy to play, there are some simple routes. Themes match pretty well with the movie.
Weakness: There is slight lag in the car's reaction to the controls. Some times the progress of the game is not saved.
My son loves this game, and that is because he loved the movie. The game is really easy to plan and easy to get started. The most irritating thing has been that some times the game progress and points earned are not saved.

Cars
Strengths: Very enjoyable kid-friendly racing game that makes good use of the Pixar characters
Weakness: Could have done without the stealth portions
Cars is one of the better kids' movie tie-in games. It makes excellent use of the license. You start off (as Lightning McQueen of course) in Radiator Springs and can explore the town at will stopping in glowing areas to trigger different race events. Win enough of these and other areas near the town will unlock. There is some decent variation to the events including standard vs. races, full-on...

It's for the kids
Strengths: Sandbox game. Great for the kids.
Weakness: Too easy.
If you are looking for a bit of a challenge in your game, this isn't the one for you.
Graphics and characters are nice. The races are just too easy for anyone that's not a kid. But that's probably a good thing, as children will really enjoy it.
Pick it up if you want something fun for the kids to play.
