I’m a 35-year-old kid who literally grew up on Toy Story. I watched the first one in theaters when I was just 4 years old. When the second one came out, my dad was the exact same age I am right now. I watched Toy Story 3 right as I was graduating high school, and Toy Story 4 with my wife. I just did a full rewatch of the entire series over the last few days, and honestly... Toy Story 5 is an absolute masterpiece. It is a total emotional…

The epitome of mediocrity. The theme of tech encroaching on children's lives is a good one but it was a poor decision to centre the film so heavily around Jessie. It feels like there is a relative lack of adventure compared to other instalments and almost nothing for the other toys to do. Choosing to emasculate Buzz was quite frankly bizarre; firstly that they would think to do that to a well established character who also happens to be an…

This movie blows. I had no idea Jessie was going to be the main character and now there's leaks that this will be the norm moving forward. Shes a great side character but absolutely not main character worthy. Woody and Buzz were just side characters in a Toy Story movie... Seriously? And speaking of Buzz they turned him into a simp sitting in the cuck chair the entire movie. Not a single one of his actions were for his own goals, it was all for…

Toy Story 5 surprisingly I think is actually the best since part 2. Since it has the toys trying to reunite plot. When Jessie gets separated from the rest. Due to trying to find Bonnie a friend. So Bonnie would be less attached to her new tablet and play with toys again. The movie is heartwarming and charming. Which does go for all of them. Toy Story 5 gets tears but in a more happy way than the last two films.

What a good movie. Possibly just as good as the first one. With a good lesson behind it too. All things in moderation, tech has its place in our lives, but it shouldn’t run our lives.

Sooooo good! Everything was perfect and so well written: the characters, the music, every single scene... and the theme felt so modern. Playing with toys in your bedroom or outside has always been the most fun and entertaining game of all... I miss it so much. If I ever get a dog, I’m definitely naming it Pile-Poil. I swear! Toy Story is the best animated movie of all time, babyyy. It's a YES!

This movie makes a big gesture of concern for the dangers of digital entertainment for children, but it shows no awareness of what those dangers are. The safety of children in the digital world is a very real concern, and Toy Story 5 doesn’t have anything to say on the matter that rises above tired Black Mirror-level platitudes.
