Pixar's best yet

Rating: 10/10 (21 February 2000)

Toy Story was fantastic. Bugs life was better. Toy Story 2 is just phenomenal. Can Pixar get any better?
I went with three friends, all University graduates. We sat in a full auditorium alongside kids and adults of all descriptions. I can safely say that I have not heard an audience laugh so much in years. Pixar have an almost unique ability to appeal to everyone.
For Pixar fans there were the usual in-jokes - anybody who owns the DVD version of 'a bugs life' will recognise the toy repairer as 'Geri' from 'Geri's Game' which won the Academy Award for best animated short in 1997. As an extra bonus, they also showed Pixar's first animated short 'Luxor Jr.' at the start of the film.
Just brilliant.
