Short version - Run don't walk to see this movie just as good if not better than the first two!!!
I was reading about Toy Story this morning and how it slammed all other movies taking in record gross profits since it opened at regular theaters, 3D versions AND IMAX theaters too. I'd see it in IMAX again if any friends wanted to see it, in hindsight I think we missed out on some of the nuances of the animators by being glazed over by the 3D glasses.
There was nothing about this movie I didn't like! I absolutley LOVED it and would easily pay $12+ to see in IMAX! The jokes were fresh and real and just as enjoyable if you were 4 or 44. It was the first time in a long time I heard the ENTIRE audience applaud during and after a movie, it was just good hearted fun filled with laughter and if you wear your emotions on your sleeve (like I do) be prepared to cry too! There are MANY scenes that even after the movie are just GREAT conversation starters too for children and/or adults! My wife and I talked about how emotionally powerful some of the scenes were and we were watching a animated flick and we're talking about emotions and feelings - boy did we get our monies worth!!!
I totally enjoyed the subtle call backs to the previous movies. They weren't overpowering or gimmicky they seemed authentic and real and as mentioned subtle, you didn't need to see the previous movies to get it but it just made those scenes that much funnier!
I liked the emotions on the faces of the toys too!
I rate movies based on how much I thought they were worth, $15 is what you pay for a 3D movie these days and $1 is your Redbox rental, while I'd prefer to see this moive in 2D IMAX it was totally worth the $15 we paid for it and worth every penny we were entertained and felt a swaray of feelings for the entire 109 minutes!
So what are you waiting for put your sneakers on, warm up your cheeks for laughing, bring tissues for the crying and get running to the theater!!!
Yes, I recommend this movie.
