Rating: Summary: One of the best movies of the year Review: This was an excellent movie! Better than the original Toy Story. Although the storyline wan't that great as the original, the characters, the settings, and the humor was much more improved. If you liked the first Toy Story, you'll love this one too.
Rating: Summary: Good story Review: Where this movie has a good story and is enjoyable to watch, I was expecting more humor that an adult could enjoy too. I liked it, it just was TOO much for children. Maybe my memory is a little rusty, but I remembered the first Toy Story to have more humor for adults. But, if you have kids, this is the one for you. They'll love it.
Rating: Summary: When does a sequel outshine the original? See THIS! Review: This has GOT to be on the short list of movie sequels that are superior to the originals. First off I felt that an entirely digitally animated movie was incredible to begin with, and when I finally saw the original 'Toy Story' I was in awe of not just how technologically incredible it was, but how GOOD it was as well. Forget for a moment we are talking about ANIMATION...I think too many people believe that just because it wasn't live-action it simply wasn't worth an adults time. Thank heavens I have little children who want me to take them to these kinds of films so I won't feel embarassed as an adult walking into a so-called 'Children's movie'...but it just DOESN'T matter in the case of 'Toy Story' and this particularly amazing sequel. I have to hand it to the producers and writers for coming up with such a great story! First off you have to put yourself into the role of a toy, and think to yourself, "IF it WAS true that toys were alive, what kinds of problems might they encounter?" They certainly did come up with a plot that seems a perfect natural for this scenario. All of the voices do a superb job of giving life to these animated toys we see, so good in fact that I watched the entire film without once thinking to myself, "Hey, that's Tom Hanks and Tim Allen talking there!" You find very quickly that you are enveloped in this creative and might I add VERY FUNNY story which moves along at a great pace and well, even if you have seen it before, it is definitely worth another look...and if you have put off seeing this because its a 'kids film' get OVER it and see it. Good stuff no matter HOW old you are.

Rating: Summary: The BEST DVD Set! Review: Yes, the set is a bit expensive, but it's really, really worth it!I am an enormous fan of the Toy Story series, and am ecstatic that I added this DVD set to my VHS tapes. You get two fantastic movies and GOBS of extra material (including a preview of Pixar's next film!). The films are beautifully mastered, and incredibly clear in both picture and sound. The interface is well designed, easy to use, and really fun to play with! Overall, 3 wonderful DVD's to add to your collection.

Rating: Summary: Ultimate Set for the Toy Story Fan Review: This 3-Disc Set is truly the 'Ultimate' set for the fans of Toy Story and Toy Story 2. If you havent seen one or both movies, They each are made with kids AND adults in mind, and there are plenty of in-jokes to look for while watching (Spoofs include Airplane, 2001, Star Wars, Spinal Tap, Close Encounters, and Die Hard just to name a FEW). There are even some funny gags from the second movie that play off the first. If your afraid the second falls into the category of 'typical animated sequel,' you'll be pleasantly surprised to find a movie I consider better than the first. The set is a veritable treasure chest of extras -- Toy Shorts from ABC Saturday morning ads, faux onscreen interviews, full-length commentary on both movies, isolated music and fx tracks, Dolby surround, International dubbing sampler, making-of featurette (not a shabby one either), a lesson on how they took a distinctly american transition from the second movie and tweaked it to suit international audiences, 2 animated shorts, and much, much more. I can't recommend this highly enough.
Rating: Summary: Holy toy chest Woody!! Review: This is what DVD is all about. There is so much packed into this dvd three pack that it took me literally two weeks to get through it all. First off, both Toy Story 1 and 2 are terrific movies, even for the big kid in me. I personally think that the second film is much more entertaining than the first, but that could possibly be because this was the first time I had seen it. Each movie has a ton of extras, and thats before you get to the third disk. Now, I'm not sure if that third disk was really worth all the extra money, cause most people are likely to only watch it once. But still, the movies are great, and will get watched over and over.
Rating: Summary: Fun for everyone! Review: I'm not a fan of animation, but I really enjoyed Toy Story 1 e 2. As an adult, I expect cartoons and animations to have a good plot at least, and in this sense, Toy Story was a great surprise. The second part is very fine, with new characters and a well developed plot. Every single detailed in this film is prepared to please the most demanding audiences and inteligent humor has become a trait of Toy Story. In Toy Story 2, Woody gets read to go camping with Andy, but he is left behind when his arm accidently breaks. When he tries to rescue another toy from the toys sale Andy's mother is promoting, he is stolen by an inescrupulous salesman, who decides to sell him to a Japanese buyer, together with other toys from his serie. Joining the other toys ready to be packed, Woody finds out he was a very popular toy in the 50's and even had a successful TV show. At a certain moment he has to decide whether he wants to go back to Andy's room or he wants to become eternal, in a toys exposition. Some scenes are really great, such as the barbie's pool party and the arguments Mr. Potato head has with his wife. Fine movie!
Rating: Summary: THIS IS THE EDITION TO OWN Review: Dvd is all about Picture, Sound, and Special Features. This one has it all. Next to Terminator, this DVD has the most special features I have ever seen. It takes a third disc just to fit everything in. You get screensavers, games, behind the sceans features, interviews, deleted stuff..oh boy too many to mention here. If Special Features is what you are looking for GET THIS.. WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR...
