Toy Story (Rating: 5.00)
Review : 1995's "Toy Story" was the first feature length film generated entirely by computers, and Pixar's first dive into theatrical films. The movie opens as young Andy turns 7. The undisputed leader of Andy's toys, a 50's cowboy doll named Woody (Tom Hanks), finds himself challenged by the new toy on the block, "space ranger" Buzz Lightyear (Tim Allen). When Woody's plan to get rid of Buzz backfires, the two find themselves lost in the suburbs. Woody and Buzz relize they have to work together to get back to Andy's, and they eventually become the best of friends. The humor and animation is terrific, and a great start for Pixar. This lead to several other successes, such as A Bug's Life and Finding Nemo.

Now on to "the vaults". Disney is trying to squeeze every last penny out of the cash cow, and have the two Toy Story films under lock and key, no doubt so they can sell millions of "Special Editions" in five years. Once again, Disney appalls me with their unmatched corperate greed. In conclusion, Toy Story is an excellent film and a true must-see.

Have you ever had a favorite toy? (Rating: 5.00)
Review : Disney and Pixar's "Toy Story" was the first full-length computer animated feature ever, and now it is the first "Walt Disney Gold Collection" video released as of January 11th, 2000. The "Walt Disney Gold Collection" is a group of films that inspire wonder and imagination for a life time, and "Toy Story" fits that description perfectly!

Have you ever had a favorite toy? Well Andy did. His was Woody, a cowboy doll. But when Andy gets a Buzz Lightyear space man for his birthday, Woody feels cast aside. Woody's jealousey leads him and Buzz lost far away from home. Now they must work together to get home before Andy moves to a new house.

The great thing about the "Walt Disney Gold Collection" is that they include special features weather they are on video or DVD. "Toy Story" has the 1988 Academy AwardŽ-Winning Animated Short "Tin Toy", "You've Got A Friend In Me" music video as featured on the hit "Toy Story" soundtrack, and a behind the scenes look at the making of "Toy Story." So if you bought the video when it first came out, you may consider buying it again.

5 Stars To Infinite and beyond! (Rating: 5.00)
Review : Love this movie! It's cute and funny! Not only are the computer animated graphics brilliant, the story is creatively plotted out.

It's a warmhearted story about a boy named Andy whose favorite toy, Woody, feels suddenly left out when a new toy, Buzz Lightyear, "replaces" him. The relationship between Woody and Buzz goes from jealousy and hate, but once they're put in a situation where they are left to fend for themselves in order to survive, all that changes into learning how to accept each other for their differences and becoming friends. It definitely contains valuable lessons for children young and old, and maybe children will learn how to treat their toys better. In addition, I love a movie that can convey every emotion, from happy to sad to happy again... And "Toy Story" is it! I love this movie! And I'm sure that even if you're not into watching children movies or cartoons, you'll still enjoy what "Toy Story" has to offer. And if you enjoy "Toy Story", you'll also fall in love with "Monsters, Inc.", another Pixar creation. But be sure to check out "Toy Story" first!

One of the best animated movies in a long time. (Rating: 5.00)
Review : The characters are great and they are really funny. In case some people have not seen it yet, I want to tell them what it's about. There's this cowboy named Woody, he was the loved toy of this boy(owner) named Andy. This toy of course could talk or else there would not be a story. But he was not the only toy, there were many other regular toys like Rex the dinosaur, Lenny the binocular(really cute), Mr.Potato Head, the Aliens(my faorite)etc. Woody was always played by Andy but on Andy's birthday, he got a so called space ranger. This space ranger was named Buzz Lightyear. He was then the liked one of the clan, all the toys thought he was cool even Andy. Woody was unhappy about this so he tried to get rid of him which kind of suceeded. Then had this whole adventure, and they(or Woody) found out that jealousy was not the key. So, they all became wonderful friends. If you really really really or just really like this movie, go out and get it. I thought this movie was perfect for all ages. I give it 5***** stars. Everything was perfect, the plot, the setting and the characters. The color was magnificant, they had many dark and right for the picture colors. They picked the right people to put the voices in the movie, and I also really like those people. Even thougth it was an animated flick used with a computer, I really felt all of it. I felt the characters and how they were suppose to be and the story. I love the lines of the characters, they said many funny things. Buzz Lightyear said, in the beginning when he came, when Woody was jealous of him "You are a sad, strange, little man. You have my pity. Farewell." Also when they were in the same scene, some characters said: Mr, Potato Head: How come you don't have a laser Woody? Woody: It's not a laser! It's a little light that blinks! Hamm:What's wrong with him? Mr. Potato Head: Laser envy. To conclude this, it's the bestest animated movie I have ever seen.

Original and fun for the whole family! (Rating: 5.00)
Review : This movie took me by storm when I saw it back in the summer of 1995 at the theatres and let me tell you, this movie is still one of the best computer animated movies of all time. In fact this movie shattered new grounds back in 1995 by not using drawing cel animation and instead this movie is the first of an unbroken chain of computer generated animated movies that has continued to date with "Finding Nemo".

The plot is absolutely joyful and stunningly original. The story revolves around the quiet family home of a quiet town where a boy owns numerous toys with his toddler sister. The toys however, are almost like beings of their own and are 'living' as well but stop 'moving' when the boy comes back into his room. However, a cowboy named Tim is the most popular 'toy' in the boys bedroom and is kept by the pillow almost every night until on his birthday, he gets a fancy astronaut toy named Buzz Lightyear who has many 'gizmos' and in time takes over the toy cowboys place as the most popular toy and Tim gets enormously jealous of this. However, after a botched attempt to remove Buzz, the cowboy himself along with Buzz end up in the hands of a punk teenager who takes joy in blowing up toys with firecrackers and or other means like burning, breaking, or smashing them and/or even taking them apart and re-assembling their parts to create 'mutant' toys and now the clock is ticking for Tim and Buzz to escape from the boys house before they end up being blown to molecules.

This movie is absolutely fun and original even by 1995 standards. The computer generated special effects are innovative and unbelievable especially considereing the fact that this movie came out nearly a whole decade ago. The whole tone of the movie is just fun and charming and is for the entire family. Not only that but this was what put the then newcomers Pixas right into the front seat of movie animation and would be the start of an unbroken streak of excellent movies from this dynamite team.

Computer animation wow. 16th april 2004. (Rating: 5.00)
Review : The toys are great, the graphics and scenery is too. The collectables are boys mostly but the film is ace for anyone. The 3D toys look real, the colors are excellent[like finding nemo]. The talking toys are all friends, and they live with their owner andy.
