Toy Story 3

Toys make childhood childhood. Can you imagine life without toys? And can toys life without us? This touching story from the fantastic world of toys will move, delight, and make you laugh... Proof that imagination has no limits. My enthusiasm for Toy Story has not diminished even after the 3rd instalment, which was no less interesting than the previous two. (30/10/2010)

A perfect conclusion to the trilogy. Dark but at the same time sensitive, full of references and jokes. Some of my worst nightmares came to life so clearly... the winking baby, the monkey with the cymbals (from a short story by Stephen King) and that ending, that ending. They really had me scared and I seriously thought that it wouldn’t end well. The moment when I stopped telling myself that this is just a kids’ movie about toys and just waited to see how it turned out. And the final farewell is one of the most moving scenes that I have ever seen. So long, Woody, Buzz and the rest. (15/10/2010)

The third installment of Toy Story was the best one as far as I’m concerned. Compared to the previous films, it presents itself as a chilling thriller/horror with a happy ending. Not even Chucky can compare with the scary and badass Big Baby. If I were a toy, I definitely wouldn't be able to sleep after watching this film. Not to mention the horrors that occur in the Caterpillar room. Compared to that, all the films with the word Asylum in the title pale in comparison. As a bonus, there’s Barbie and Ken's fashion show. A clear 5 stars. (13/08/2016)

The most mature (but not the best) Pixar, this time following in the footsteps of the runaway classics whose clichés it playfully and imaginatively plays with. It’s almost surprising how much it has in "feeling" in common with Svěrák's Kooky, and not just because of the pink Teddy-bear. (19/06/2010)

Only exceptionally can the third part of the free series be said to surpass its predecessors. It is a surprisingly mature film that works excellently with human emotions and, although overflowing with sentiment, manages to dose it so cleverly that at least in my case it struck the right chord and I was more excited about Toy Story 3 than the surrounding crowd in the movie theater. It is a story of the inevitable end of a fateful relationship and the resulting life changes, such as the departure of children from home and the establishment of new families. The toys in the household, in which they have spent their entire existence, must come to terms with the boy's coming of age and his departure to college. As a second theme and genre setting, it is a film about rebellion against established orders, in this case against the dictatorship of the pink beast named Lotso alias the adorable plush teddy bear, and about a grand escape that competes in precision and inventiveness with any exciting contemporary thriller. The screenplay and technical aspects of the film are at a top level, and Toy Story 3 made the best impression on me. I rank it among the absolute best animated blockbusters right after Shrek and Ratatouille. Overall impression: 95%. (21/06/2010)
