Rating: 10/10 (19 September 2017)

Since 1995, Pixar has produced 18 feature length films, starting with Toy Story, the first computer animated movie. All 18 movies have seen massive box office success which have grossed billions worldwide and earned several awards.
On Re – watching, Toy Story is still a movie that holds up today then when I first saw at the cinema as a kid and a movie that I still enjoy watching time and time again even as an adult.
Toy Story tells the story of cowboy doll Woody (voiced by Tom Hanks) who is the favourite toy of Andy, Woody is basically the leader of the other toys owned by Andy, however during Andy's birthday party he receives a surprise gift from his mother – A space ranger by the name of Buzz lightyear (Voiced by Tim Allen)
As this Buzz lightyear becomes Andy's new favourite toy, Woody starts to feel threatened and Jealous and Woody attempts to get rid of him and ends up accidentally knocking Buzz out of the window, this causes the other toys to turn against Woody.
The rest of the movie sees Woody and Buzz as they attempt to escape from their Evil neighbour, a young boy named Sid Phillips who enjoys destroying toys, and return to Andy before him and his family move house.
The Visuals are stunning, the story is fantastic with plenty of humour, the vocal performances are solid and the characters are iconic. Randy Newman's score is fantastic and the songs written are excellent, 'You've got a friend in me' has to be one the greatest Disney songs and the montage it accompanies showing the relationship of Andy and Woody is just Wonderful.
I remember as a child, playing with my own toys and using my imagination to create little adventures. It is certainly a movie I enjoy watching now and again and will be definitely introducing my children to it.
