Toy Story 3-D”: Funny and Exciting

684 Words2 Pages

This is the best movie I have taken my kids to see in years. The adventure continues for the toys in the third Toy Story movie where Buzz Lightyear and Woody the cowboy played by Tim Allen and Tom Hanks, must once again find their way back to Andy’s room before he leaves for college. I know the storyline sounds familiar but I truly feel you will be pleased to find that it takes a bit of a twist this time around and ends with a very exciting trip to the landfill while not sparing any of the humor along the way. My essay looks to show why this movie is funny and exciting while not just rehashing the same story line repeatedly.

As in the past Toy Story movies the story begins with a fun loving scene where Andy is playing with his toys happily, unfortunately for the toys this is all a dream as they are now being kept in a toy box in his room due to him being much too old for toys. He is now getting ready to leave for college and his mother has given him three options as he is packing for school: trash, attic or day-care donation.

Woody being the leader and most calm of the toys is convinced that none of them will be thrown away. As Andy starts going through all of his things he selects the most common toys of the group to be stored in the attic with the exception of Woody who is chosen by Andy to go away to school with him. This is where things go wrong for the toys. Andy’s mom accidentally mixes up the toys and after Woody tries to save them, they all end up at a day-care center.

...haracters and emotions” (RogerEbert.com). I strongly suggest going with your children to see this movie as it also has a subtle hint of adult humor included in it for the parents and if you have issues with 3-D movies they were nice enough to have it shown in normal 2-d as well. It will have you laughing while you are on the edge of your seats waiting to see how they escape danger and ends with a touching moment that will have you near tears. Toy Story 3 truly has it all no matter what age you are.
