Good but not that Great

Rating: 7/10 (23 January 2000)

This film was fun with a few very funny moments (I especially liked the out-takes). But I was disappointed. After hearing all the hype and seeing the exciting opening Buzzlightyear sequence, I was hoping for a grander adventure, but most of the action took place in a toy store and a sterile office building. And there wasn't that much of a philosophical message to really bear mentioning, at least not as much as other reviewers have. For a more thoughtful animated experience I would suggest "The Iron Giant" or "Princess Mononoke." Still it's fun enough to earn a solid 7.
