Monsters University Synopsis
Michael "Mike" Wazowski, a six-year-old monster, visits Monsters Inc., the most famous scaring company in Monstropolis, on a school field trip. The class meets Frank McCay, an employee of the company who works as a "scarer", entering the human world to scare children at night and harvesting their screams as energy to power the monster world. Fascinated, Mike slips through Frank's door before anyone can stop him, where he watches Frank's scare performance, then follows him back through the door to the monster world. Frank scolds Mike, but is impressed having followed him unnoticed, and gives him his Monsters University hat as a souvenir. Oblivious to his teacher's later admonishments, Mike dreams of being a scarer when he grows up.

Approximately eleven years later, Mike is a scare major at Monsters University. On his first day, he meets his new roommate, Randall "Randy" Boggs, a nerdy chameleon-like monster. On the first day of class, the strict Dean of the scare program Abigail Hardscrabble informs the students that they must pass their final exam of the semester to continue in the program. As Mike is answering a question, he is interrupted by another scare student, an arrogant large blue monster named James P. "Sulley" Sullivan. While Mike is studying one night, Sulley inadvertently barges into his room to hide the pig mascot he stole from their rival college, Fear Tech. While the two introduce themselves, the pig steals Mike's MU hat and escapes. Mike and Sulley give chase and Mike captures it, but Sulley takes credit and is invited to join Roar Omega Roar, the elite fraternity on campus. Mike wants to join, but is rejected, starting a rivalry between the two.

Mike studies hard and answers questions in class correctly, while the privileged Sulley, relying on his natural scaring ability, begins to falter. At the final exam, Mike and Sulley's rivalry causes Hardscrabble to fail them both and dropping them from the program, prompting Roar Omega Roar to remove Sulley from the fraternity. Unsatisfied in his boring new major, Mike decides to prove himself by entering the Scare Games, an extracurricular scaring competition. As the games are only for fraternity or sorority members, Mike joins Oozma Kappa, a small fraternity of misfit monsters that was also removed from the scaring program. Oozma Kappa is denied entry as they are one team member short. Seeing the competition as his ticket back into the scare program Sulley also joins and Mike reluctantly accepts. Mike also makes a deal with Dean Hardscrabble, who remains skeptical, to re-admit their entire team to the scaring program if they win, whereas if they lose, Mike must leave Monsters University. Sulley expects to carry the team by himself, but Mike believes that with enough training, the whole team can succeed.

Oozma Kappa fails the first challenge miserably but miraculously advances when another team is disqualified. Soon they attend the Roar Omega Roar's party where the other competitors humiliate and discourage Oozma Kappa. Mike arranges a secret visit to Monsters, Inc. to lift their spirits and giving them the wits and training to advance to the final round against Roar Omega Roar. Sulley still doubts Mike can be a true scarer. After the team wins the final round, Mike discovers that Sulley cheated to improve Mike's score. Determined to prove he is capable of becoming a scarer, Mike breaks into the school's door lab and enters a door to the human world, but discovers that the door leads to a summer camp and he is unable to scare the cabin full of kids. Back at the university, Sulley confesses to Hardscrabble that he cheated, just as she's notified of the break-in. Realizing what happened, Sulley enters the door to look for Mike. After finding Mike and reconciling, the pair, now being pursued by human adults, attempt to return, but find themselves trapped in the human world, as Hardscrabble has deactivated the door while waiting for the authorities to arrive. Mike realizes that the only way to get back into the monster world is to generate enough scream energy to power the door from their side.

Working together, Sulley and Mike terrify the adults, generating an overwhelming amount of scream energy and allowing them to return to the lab. Their actions lead to their expulsion from the university, but the other members of Oozma Kappa are accepted into the scare program the next semester as Hardscrabble was impressed with their performance in the games. They share goodbyes and as Sulley and Mike leave; Hardscrabble tells them they are the first to have surprised her and wishes them luck for the future. Mike and Sulley work at Monsters, Inc. in the company mailroom with the Abominable Snowman as the mailroom's manager. Working their way up through the company, the two eventually become part of the Scarer Team.

Monsters University Movie Review
This movie is described about the university for monsters, there are orientation on the first day. During the orientation there are the university tour for the new students. But there are humor when the tour guide said that she believe that the cafeteria chef is the best chef in the world during they are in the cafeteria, because the chef put the rubbish on the dustbin on the table, and the students are eat it happily (It's disgusting). Besides that, the students can join the clubs and societies such as art. There are some "impossible" faculty name in Monsters University is School of Door Technology and School of Scaring.

During the class there are the arrogant student called James P. "Sulley" Sullivan, he looked down on Michael "Mike" Wazowski because Mike's face is not scary. They fight a lot the whole semester because Sulley is the one who are not care about examination even the Dean Hardscrabble is giving the warning to the students on the first day, and he keep playing on the whole semester until the examination date. Meanwhile, Mike study everyday because he hope to continue the program on the coming semester. But both of them was expel from the program because Sulley and Mike fight during the examination. Sulley was answer the question which given by Dean wrongly and Mike are not scary. This made Mike are upset because his hope is to become a scary monster.

After that, he joined Scare Games with Oozma Kappa group and Sulley joined the group because they lack one more monster. Mike make a deal with Dean because Dean is not confident that Mike would win the Scare Games, if Mike win, Dean should let the group member to study in School if Scaring, and if Mike lost, he and Sulley should leave Monsters University.

In the first game, Mike's group get the last because they are lack of teamwork. Teamwork is the most important in the team instead to make the work perfect. But after that, they won a lot because of the teamwork that they have. Of course each games would be more harded than previous round.

Mike's roommate, Randall "Randy" Boggs willing to betray Mike and Sulley to join the group Roar Omega Roar. I hate to see the group was being fool by Roar Omega Roar during the party because they are try to make them look like the kids since they are not scary. But Mike try to give the cheers to them, and that's what we called as teamwork.

At last, they won the Scare Games, but Mike found that Sulley did the cheat because he doesn't believe Mike can do it. Sulley shouldn't do that to cheat Mike, the organizer, Dean, Oozma Kappa group and Roar Omega Roar group. Mike are sad and he want to prove himself by going to the lab where have the door to bring them to the human world. Sulley knew that he was wrong and he enter the door to save Mike. I like to see the teamwork between them to try to get out from the human's world. We need to be intelligent and teamwork to solve the problem.

Although they are completely expelled from Monsters University, but Dean wishes them luck on their future life, and she let Oozma Kappa group member to join School of Scaring on the next semester because of their teamwork during the games.

As a conclusion, it's doesn't mean you not need to study if you have the particular skill. The arrogant person will be the loser at last. The intelligent person always be the successful person.
