I don't see how anyone can say this isn't a perfect film. The story is tight, it had some strong emotional beats, and the voice acting is spot on.

This is an animation classic. I love rewatching this from start to finish. It's impact on cinema is undeniable.

John Lasseter has delivered a great adventure story that will not only entertain children but can also be enjoyed as a jokey parable by adults.

| Original Score: 5/5 | Sep 6, 2024

Children must eventually outgrow their toys and it’s this existential fear that informs the animated film. Even as its characters worry about getting left behind, the movie is a perfectly preserved snapshot of childhood, a time gone by.

You don't have to be a kid to enjoy it, just have a sense of humor.

... a tight, inventive script that balances strongly etched characters with a tremendous sense of play, and brings it to life with vividly realized characters.

Whenever watching the film, an eternally charming account of the world of toys, imagine that the story told is that of Pixar, the little company who proved, both through their own story and their film, the infinite possibility of imagination.

| Original Score: 4/4 | Mar 20, 2022

I always look back to Toy Story as the match that lit my movie-loving fuse.

We have seen the future of cartoons, and its name is Toy Story.

| Original Score: 4/4 | Aug 19, 2021

An unforgettable, groundbreaking, absolutely winning masterpiece.

| Original Score: 10/10 | Sep 25, 2020

Toy Story takes a number of surprising turns, and though I didn't fall in love with it -- there's a lot of routine clobbering, scrambling, and zooming about -- I remained interested and happy until the end (and children, I think, will adore it).

Toy Story remains the humanistic, vital film that created the mold for such classics as Finding Nemo and WALL-E.

Toy Story (1995) is the first completely computer-generated, animated feature film. The visuals were entirely generated from computers, creating a wonderfully-realistic 3-D world with lighting, shading, and textures...

| Original Score: A+ | Sep 29, 2019

This eighty minutes are an endless succession of novelties. [Full Review in Spanish]

If you haven't seen the original in some time, perhaps for fear that it won't hold up compared to the later, sleeker releases from Pixar, it's worth rediscovering its pleasures.

| Original Score: 4/4 | Jun 20, 2019

[Tom] Hanks doesn't just speak lines, he gives a performance.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | May 30, 2019

[Toy Story] gives us some of the best characters ever in film.

| Original Score: A+ | Apr 29, 2019

All great animated films, certainly those aimed at youngsters, seem to subtly lament the transience of the magic of childhood, and Toy Story certainly fits in that lineage.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Dec 2, 2018

With "instant classic" written all over it, Toy Story, the first full-length feature entirely composed of computer-generated animation, is a visually astounding, wildly inventive winner.
