Toy Story 3

Disney-Pixar 3D animation continues its tradition in bringing marvels to the big screen, with this heartfelt and funny adventure.

The story involves change and transition with Andy, (voiced by John Morris) now 17 years old and heading for college. While clearing his room, Andy's beloved toys inadvertently end up at Sunnyside Day Care, a fun and chaotic place but with a dark side.

With the same creative team that made the first two films, including screenwriters Michael Arnds (Little Miss Sunshine), John Lasseter (Cars) and the terrific director Lee Unkrich (Monster's Inc, Toy Story 2 and Finding Nemo), Toy Story 3 captivates through its great visuals as well as its well paced scenes. There is a balance between the funny and the more serious themes of friendship, loyalty, and separation. However, the most important elements remain the good plot and script.

The stellar vocal cast includes Tom Hanks as Andy's loyal and most favorite toy cowboy Sheriff Woody, Tim Allen as the heroic space-ranger Buzz Lightyear, Joan Cusack as the exuberant cowgirl doll Jesse, Don Rickles as the wise-cracking eternal pessimist Mr. Potato Head, Wallace Shawn as dinosaur Rex, Jon Ratzenberger as the know-it-all pink piggybank Ham and Estelle Harris as the temperamental loving spud Mrs. Potato Head.

Enhanced by vivid colors, the feature is stimulating with first rate 3D CG animation, but it is on the emotional level that people of all ages can relate to the characters' adventures and humor.
