Toy Story 3 Review

Toy Story 3

A review by Frederick Cholowski

A+

    It has been around almost ten years when we saw our lovable toys and now they're back!! Pixar is taking a huge risk by making a third film considering the curse of the third film and the satisfying ending to Toy Story 2. Dose the risk pay off? Yes yes it dose.


 

    Toy Story 3 takes place years after Toy Story 2. Andy is off to Collage and the toys have not been played with for years and years. When Andy is packing for college a mistake is made and the toys are thrown away instead of put into the attic. They narrowly escape that and the toys go into a donation box straight to daycare. Woody (if you don't know he is the sheriff toy ) is totally against this he still thinks that they have a place with Andy but Buzz and the rest of the gang see the day care center as a paradise. This soon changes when the true motives of the daycare toys are clear (and evil) the toys go on a mission to bust out of the daycare.


 

    Simple but hugely satisfying. The plot is familiar within the Toy Story code. The parts that really make this movie are the subtle humour and the last half of the film witch tugs on the heart strings. The ending is both satisfying and has great themes. The film is also hilarious. There are some great lines and awesome scenes that are really subtle and cool (and Spanish Buzz Lightyear for the win!!).


 

    As performances go all the old favourites are back. Tom Hanks and Tim Allen are, as usual the best as the dynamic duo of Woody and Buzz. Their are so many other roles I won't cover the rest I'll just say that they are great and not one is out of place. That is the best complement I can give it.


 

    The animation as usual with Pixar is amazing. It looks even better than the first two Toy Stories the films that revolutionised animation. It is sharper and crisper. There is also greater detail and brighter colours.


 

    Overall Toy Story 3 is the complete package. Funny, entertaining and satisfying. All the things you want out of a Pixar film. One of my favourite animated films, Toy Story 3 is the whole package with a great ending too boot. I can't wait to se what Pixar dose next.
