A farewell to Woody and Buzz?

Rating: 8/10 (20 July 2010)

I've heard the Toy Story films described as being the Godfather of animation films. I'm pleased to report that the third instalment of Toy Story is much closer to the quality of the first 2 films than the third part of the Godfather.
The final part of Toy Story see's Andy about to depart to college and the toys facing an uncertain future as it's time for a tidy up. We have all our old favourites here together with a few new friends (and enemies) that they meet along the way. As usual with Toy Story, it's got something for the adults and the children. If the first Toy Story was the buddy film between Buzz and Woody, the second film was the rip roaring adventure with a few dark moments then the final film is a fairly sentimental goodbye to our old friends. They'll be sadly missed and Toy Story will make a great box set which you'll be able to watch back to back in half a day. One of the best films of 2010 ... even if it wasn't quite as thrilling as the first 2.
