The least successful Pixar movie is the one that has been not liked or appreciated by the fans and movie critics as well. Nothing has distinguished Pixar in the realm of children’s entertainment more than its ardent determination to avoid coasting or settling.
Now, let’s take a look at the least successful Pixar movie-
Cars 3 (2017)

Early reactions to Cars 3 have hailed the third episode in the Lightning McQueen series for not being Cars 2, the first Pixar picture to get a “rotten” rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Not exactly a high bar to clear… and we’re not certain the new picture will be able to overcome that. Yes, Tow Mater is back on the perimeter, where he belongs, while Lightning (Owen Wilson) battles two new foes: a sleek race vehicle named Jackson Storm (Armie Hammer) and, more ominously, the increasing knowledge that he is no longer the king of the track.
Cars 3 feels like a benign holding pattern, delivering the race sequences and touching homilies that were abundant in the previous picture — but without the same amount of creativity. Despite the efforts of Hammer, Kerry Washington, Nathan Fillion, and Chris Cooper as Lightning’s grumpy new trainer, there isn’t a single fascinating new character. Cars 3 plays out like a rival studio’s tepid attempt to emulate Pixar’s brilliance, from Randy Newman’s by-the-numbers music to every single one of Mater’s stale jokes. It’s not so much terrible as depressing.
Despite the fact that Cars 3 was a step up over Cars 2, it only made $383 million. This is most likely owing to the fact that it is a sequel, and fans’ expectations were low due to its predecessor’s terrible plot.
