marvelous!

Rating: 9/10 (10 January 2011)

This was a marvelous sequel in the Toy Story series. It seems that Andy is all grown up now and off to college and no longer has any need for his toys. (Woody, Buzz Lightyear, and the rest of the gang.) They are now starting to feel left out, and after a misunderstanding by the mother, wind up in a "retirement home for toys" headed up by Lotso-well voiced by Ned Beatty. Things seem pleasant enough. Unfortunately, things aren't what they seem, especially Lotso. Woody escapes to be back with Andy, but then has to go back to get the other toys and rescue them. This is overall a terrific film and a worthy entry in a great Disney series. I recommend it to anyone who likes Disney films and computer generated movies. By the way, watch for Sid from the first film in a cameo appearance. The voice cast in this film is first rate, and so is the story and the ending.
