"A magnificent film, created with a then unproven playful spirit that merges broad cartoon antics with an endearing eye toward nostalgia -- the heartbreaking years when wonder turns to knowledge and maturation."

Toy Story
is long on sentiment and short on story; but has anyone ever complained? Surely not when the characters are so appealing and the visuals so extraordinary."

4/4
"Like the transcendent long shot of Buzz and Woody soaring as one,
Toy Story
does the impossible in casting us up."
Slant Magazine
