Toy Story


A great animation that's clever and enjoyable.  It plays on something that would have passed a lot of people's minds, the idea that toys comes to life when there is no one around them.  The story is touching, and although Woody isn't likable at the start, you will warm up to him once the film ends.  It's quite an achievement how the writer put so much into the story when the whole film only runs for around 70 minutes (not including credits).  There were a lot of funny moments, from the dialogue to the character faces.  Also loved the fact that the toy characters play on the fact that they are toys, it just creates some hilarious moments.  It's also great there were some recognizable toys (even if they were generic ones) such as barrel of monkeys and toy soldiers, as well as completely new ones like the main characters.  The climax was action packed and exciting.  The music was also good and the theme song remains a classic.
