Never doubt Pixar

Rating: 10/10 (3 July 2019)

Given the near perfect ending of Toy Story 3, I didn't want this franchise to be touched ever again. I am happy to say Pixar managed to craft a more than worthy story for this fourth film and an ending that fits just as well as a goodbye to these characters. This might be the funniest Toy Story film with hilarious jokes and gags lovingly sprinkled throughout. The new characters are all terrific and brilliantly brought to life by greats such as Key and Peele, as well as Keanu Reeves (firmly in the midst of his Keanussaince).
It's hard to emphasize the amount of love and care that went into making this film. You can tell that the creators didn't want to tarnish this franchise's legacy, but instead enhance it. Toy Story 4 is funny, profound, emotionally resonant, and a perfect cap to arguably the most consistently excellent franchise in film history.
