You have to wonder how a studio takes a story and makes it last throughout its sequels but Pixar/Disney does it with style in Toy Story 3. There are a lot of little life lessons, especially about loyalty, letting go, and redemption that are woven beautifully into this basically simple little tale. The ending was a tear-jerker (though a happy one) for my 10-yr-old. Would definitely recommend it to any parent!
