Editorial Review:

Amazon.com essential video:
There is greatness in film that can be discussed, dissected, and talked about late into the night. Then there is genius that is right in front of our faces--we smile at the spell it puts us into and are refreshed, and nary a word needs to be spoken. This kind of entertainment is what they used to call 'movie magic,' and there is loads of it in this irresistible computer animation feature. Just a picture of these bright toys on the cover of Toy Story looks intriguing, reawakening the kid in us. Filmmaker John Lasseter's shorts (namely Knickknack and Tin Toy, which can be found on the Pixar video Tiny Toy Stories) illustrate not only a technical brilliance but also a great sense of humor--one in which the pun is always intended. Lasseter thinks of himself as a storyteller first and an animator second, much like another film innovator, Walt Disney.

Lasseter's story is universal and magical: what do toys do when they're not played with? Cowboy Woody (voiced by Tom Hanks), Andy's favorite bedroom toy, tries to calm the other toys (some original, some classic) during a wrenching time of year--the birthday party, when newer toys may replace them. Sure enough, Space Ranger Buzz Lightyear (Tim Allen) is the new toy that takes over the throne. Buzz has a crucial flaw, though--he believes he's the real Buzz Lightyear, not a toy. Bright and cheerful, Toy Story is much more than a 90-minute commercial for the inevitable bonanza of Woody and Buzz toys. Lasseter further scores with perfect voice casting, including Don Rickles as Mr. Potato Head and Wallace Shawn as a meek dinosaur. The director-animator won a special Oscar for 'the development and inspired application of techniques that have made possible the first feature-length computer-animated film.' In other words, the movie is great. --Doug Thomas

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Still my favorite animated movie
I loved this movie when it first came out, and I still watch it time to time. No animated movie will be better than this, in my opinion.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - great movie
We chose the free shipping so it took a little longer to get here but not enough to matter. The kids love the movie and we are very happy with the order.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Just excellent!
What more can I say. My kids have watched the movie 3 or 4 times a day since they got it! I have watched it myself as well (not that much) and everytime I enjoy the story, the details, the manus... I just don't regret the purchase.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - toy story review
This is a great movie!!! My daughter absolutely loves it...we bought this one to donate to our local library because they are trying to convert their vhs collection to dvd's, but it's expensive. We thought we could donate a movie for them so my daughter chose which movie she wanted to donate.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Toy Story
A classic Pixar film that stands the test of time. I enjoyed it about as much as my son.
