A warm testament to everyone's fondest childhood memories

Rating: 10/10 (18 June 2010)

I found Toy Story 3 to be, easily, one of the most touching movies I've ever seen. The series followed my generation; I grew up with Toy Story 1 and 2, and now as I myself am heading off to college, I couldn't have asked for a better, more poignant ending than Toy Story 3. The familiarity of the characters coupled with inevitable, generational continuity, creates one of Pixar's finest works. It speaks to the warm ache of nostalgia, to die-hard loyalty, to the acceptance of change. Of course, it wouldn't have been a true Pixar film if it didn't make the audience laugh out loud every few minutes. And when Andy played with his toys for the last time at the end of the movie... my god, I cried like a baby.
Cinematic, animated brilliance.
