REVIEW: TOY STORY 3


It's not a secret I'm a huge fan of Pixar made movies. They're 11 for 11 so far. And I don't think they'll ever disappoint me.

Not when they're producing movies like Toy Story 3.

Best movie of the year for me so far. Apparently, Hollywood's been making alot of crap this summer, so it's really refreshing to see something as beautiful as this movie. To tell you honestly, apart from Kick Ass, I haven't seen any great summer movie lately. These two films were actually the only movies I was looking forward to see this year.

Toy Story is the conclusion to the trilogy that started the whole Computer Generated Animated film genre. A fitting conclusion to the story that started fifteen years ago.

This time, Andy's going to college, and Woody, Buzz and the rest of the gang are worried with what's in store for all of them. Will they be thrown in the trash, will they go to the attic or will they be donated to a day care center? Due to some unfortunate incidence, they end up in Sunnyside Day Care Center. A would-be heaven for toys, because it's a place where they never run out of kids. Would they make it out to get back to Andy before they he goes off to college? And if they do, where would they end up going?

This isn't the best Pixar outing, nor is it the most touching. But it is definitely the movie that I enjoyed watching. I loved everything about Toy Story 3, I love that even if they're just toys, they tug strings on my emotions. And not only that, it's great to see people who I grew up with, Woody, Buzz, Hamm, Mr and Mrs Potato Head, Jessie, Bullseye, Barbie and Rex, and even the newer characters like Ken and the porcupine.

I didn't cry when I watched the movie. It was difficult to do so when you have 3d glasses on. But I did cry. Specially whenever I remember the ending. The closure for all the toys. It was heartwarming, heartbreaking. It was something I didn't expect, but it's the perfect ending for all of them.

It is a rare peat for movies that come in threes to do well story-wise. But it's Pixar. They'll never let you down.

RATING: 10 out of 10 stars.

I loved/liked/want the inset photo. Gustong gusto ko ung Squeeze Toy Aliens.
Yeah, ang ganda nung ending. It was perfect. Lalo na ung bago umalis si Andy, nakipaglaro pa sya kay Bonnie with the toys. Very heartfelt.

i liked it, but i like Toy Story 2 more. parang story ni jessie din kasi yan habang kumakanta sya ng

When somebody loved me,
Everything was beautiful
Every hour we spent together lives within my heart
And when she was sad,
I was there to dry her tears
And when she was happy,
So was I
When she loved me

at nagdalaga na yung owner nya.. :'(

Uy may movie review ka din pala. Bagu-bago lang ako dito so I didn't know you do this too.

I haven't seen any of the Toy Story movies yet, but I love Pixar because we consider it our own. It is based here in the Bay Area in Emeryville. I've been looking into maybe visiting the compound. I don't know if they allow visitors but I'll find out.

I also just watched King of Persia on the theater last Saturday. I know you are going to tell me it's been playing for a long time. Thankfully here, they play quite long and you have chance to see it. No need to rush on its first week of showing.

I loved King of Persia. Have you seen it?

ang gusto ko sa PIXAR animations is yung tipong parang ayaw ko pang manuod kasi parang walang appeal sakin yung movie pero pag napanuod ka naman talagang nakangiti kang lalabas---yung ganung feeling. mahirap ipaliwanag. hehe.

I LOVE TOY STORY 3 ! I ALSO LOVE THIS POST OF YOURS. YOU KNOW, I FELT LIKE I'M ANDY. GOING TO COLLEGE AND HAVE TO LEAVE EVERYTHING BEHIND. LIKE LEAVING OLD HIGH SCHOOL FRIENDS TO HAVE A NEW STEP ON LIFE. THANK YOU SO MUCH. I CRIED WHILE WATCHING THE MOVIE END. LIKE WHEN ANDY'S CAR WAS STRAIGHT AHEAD OFF THE ROAD AND HIS TOYS WERE HAPPY SEEING THAT THEIR BELOVED OWNER LEFT THEM BUT STILL CARRYING THEIR CHILDHOOD MEMORIES, LOVE AND FRIENDSHIP.
