I’d been avoiding these three films for quite a long time. I just didn't find the subject appealing, until I was made to watch them by a very persistent friend who brought me all three installments, and, lo and behold, I had a lot of fun. True, they are pretty old and I've seen a lot of newer and well-made animated films before them, but the charm is still there. Definitely a 5*.

This cult animated film laid the foundation for the third dimension in the field of feature films. Somehow I didn't even think Toy Story was 15 years old, because there are films with worse animation even today. The film doesn't lack action, adventure, humour and romance, almost like an enumeration to a feature film and that's all the better for being animated. But I was most amused by the eternally frustrated dinosaur Rex. I wasn't bored at all during the optimum running time, and that's important to me. In short, the first feature-length animated film that may have a flaw here and there, but they are balanced by the excellent music, and it still deserves the 5* from me.

I mostly enjoyed spotting the pop culture references, where the ones to The Shining and The Exorcist were very entertaining. It's undoubtedly an entirely original subject, I just found myself wondering at times how some of the scenes would be handled (or not) by school children. I'm in no way discounting the importance of this film in terms of the evolution and future growth of animation in general. Plus it has really good cinematography. I've just never been as fired up about it as I "probably should have been". For many a cult animated film, for me a pretty passable animated film with an unnecessarily scary Sid character – through the lens of a child's perspective. 3.5 stars.

You mustn't hurt toys, dear children, you know? Or one of the major nails in the coffin of 2D animated films that started the avalanche. And as it’s well known, Pixar doesn't just focus on the technical aspects, but on the story, which in Toy Story is also funny and touching, with a hidden "educational message" on top.

I came to this film quite late because I never found anything in it that would impress me. Except for the fact that I love westerns, sci-fi, toys... actually, I have no idea why it took me so long to get to Toy Story, but eventually, I did, and as always, Pixar completely enchanted me. The connection to toys simply resonates with me.
