review : toy story 3
THE GENERAL IDEA
Andy is now 17 and ready to head off to college, leaving Woody, Buzz, Jessie, and the rest of the toy-box gang to ponder their uncertain futures. When the toys are accidentally donated to the Sunnyside Daycare center they’re initially overjoyed to once again be played with, but their enthusiasm quickly gives way to horror as they discover the true nature of the establishment under the rule of the deceptively welcoming “Lotso” Bear. Now, all of the toys must band together in one final, crazy scheme to escape their confines and return home to Andy.
OVERALL
Honestly I went into this with VERY high standards, and quite expected it not to live up. Thankfully for me it did. Everything about this movie works for the franchise, for the adventure for the overall story being told. The movie does end “open” for more, but if they never made another film this closes it out nicely with a finality I can rest easy with.
This is added to my “Movies that made me cry” list, and snuggles up almost inappropriately behind my favourite movie of the year thus far (How to Train your Dragon)
