5 out of 5 stars Wonderful film for everyone (including 40+ year olds...)   February 17, 2008
  2 out of 3 found this review helpful

Yes this is basically a kids film, but as a 40+ person with no kids who has purchased the DVD, I'll happily own up to being an adult who loves this film.br /br /This film set the benchmark for computer animated films when it was released in 1995 and it still looks good today. The story is simple and the characters are marvellous. Whoever thought of the idea that Buzz Lightyear could be a toy who believes he really is a Space Ranger deserved an Oscar. Its a brilliantly conceived idea, which has a funny and at times touching script. br /br /Its also worth mentioning the that the songs are by Randy Newman, a vastly underrated musician and songwriter, whose Uncles wrote the music for some the great Hollywood movies of the 40's and 50's. br /br /The extras on the two disc edition are pretty good, but its the main film you're buying it for. In my opinion Toy Story 2 is even better than this one - 6 stars for that one perhaps?


5 out of 5 stars A Classic, one of the best.   December 29, 2007

I bought and watched this after about 5 years of not watching it, and i still love it, perhaps even more than before! I think it is one of the best childrens films ever made, but adults love it too! Even though it was made more than ten years ago i think that kids will still love this today, it should be in anyones collection, a fun clever and interesting film that was a breakthroug in the anime era. Brilliant is all that can be said!!!

3 out of 5 stars getting into it.   December 2, 2007

i loved toy story 2 but i'm still trying to get into the first toy story film. it is not as good as 2 because was the first pixar film to be released in theaters, but i watch it once in a few weeks to try to get into it. the best part is the end of the movie where the family moves, i mean the moving truck. but it still is a great addition to toy story 2. i would rate this a 3 star rating because it is not as good as 2.


5 out of 5 stars Pixar-tastic!   October 16, 2007

This was a groundbreaking film when it came out, you'd think that after all these years it'd look dated and not up-to-scratch compared to modern CGI features - but it still looks great!br /br /I watched it again the other on DVD and if you really scrutinise you can tell where an image is added over another (Buzz and Woody at the top of the stairs in the evil Sid's house - they don't really appear to be making contact with the floor) but this is such a minor detail that most people would never notice it. It's amazing that this film which is now 12 years old is still one of the benchmark holders for the genre, the quality really is amazing.br /br /The plot finds Woody knocked off his throne as Andy's favourite toy when he gets a Buzz Lightyear action figure. Buzz doesn't know he's a toy though - he thinks the LED in his arm really is a deadly laser. A lot of the humour in the first half of the film comes from Buzz's belief that he is actually a Space Ranger from another planet. The jealousy and patronising attitude of Woody towards Buzz is tested when they find themselves stranded at a petrol station.br /br /I won't discuss the plot any more for those who haven't seen it, but the real humour in this film comes from the interaction between Buzz and Woody. Not just humour either, there's a real pathos between the two. The way the toys interact with each other is done in such a way that it mirrors `real life' mannerisms and anxieties.br /br /The casting is perfect. Before I saw this film over a decade ago I couldn't really imagine Tom Hanks as Woody and Tim Allen as Buzz - but they are perfect for the role. They use their voices to really put across the emotions of the characters. The animators obviously part modelled the features on the actual actors.br /br /The rest of the characters are casted just as brilliantly with a notable performance from John "Cheers" Ratzenberger (who also has a small part in Monsters Inc) amongst others.br /br /The DVD package is fab, with lots of features including promotional material, animated shorts, documentaries, commentaries, etc.br /br /The quality of the film transfer is spot on, this DVD boasts the highest bit-rate for this film during any of its other DVD releases. I haven't got an older DVD to compare it to - but it does look strikingly fresh and crisp.br /
