Hut 3 The toys are a red herring. This film is about hurting people being healed by one another with the guidance of its namesake. That’s the true magic. Makes me ache every time. Beautiful. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/04/25 Full Review Kalli S This is one of the best movies I have ever seen in my life. Yes, at the beginning, some of the toy store effects weren't as special as the director may have wanted... Perhaps a bit overblown, but once you get past that (that falls somewhere between the beginning and the half way point), this movie is an absolute gem. The characters are truly made to stand together... Alone they do not make sense. This film made me appreciate inter-character dynamics more than any other film I've seen, where I'm so used to switching perspectives based on each character. Mr. M's speech is iconic. The line that shook me: "Your life is an occasion. Rise to it." I literally want to print that out and put it in my cubicle at work. Life can get so serious, heavy, and hum-drum as we get older. Movies like this serve as reminders that we don't have to lose that childlike wonder as we age.

Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/17/24 Full Review Alex M Edit: Sorry, I'm just not realizing this movie is G-rated. Please disregard (although, I'm not sure why it was playing on regular television). I'm sorry, I really try to not be mean about movies and to take them as entertainment but this was insufferable. I'm not even sure how long I lasted. I don't know the best way to describe it, but it's very obvious that this is a movie, and I found it impossible to get immersed. I wouldn't be surprised is one of the actors blurted out direction notes it's so forced. The way the characters behave is so inorganic, it's almost like this could be Not Another Whimsical Movie. It's like they're Doctor Seuss characters, but in a normal world, so it just doesn't work, and it's painful. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 07/11/24 Full Review george w im like halfway maybe mid movie fr fr Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/24/24 Full Review hannah w This movie is by far one of the most incredible films I have ever seen. As a child I was so drawn to the color and imagination and the joy. Whenever I watched it, having being 8 when it came out, I was always filled with such emotion. It helped me understand death in a light and special way when it had always seemed awful. And it is, death sucks. But this movie played a beautiful role in showing me how eloquent and okay everything would be also. As I grew older I thought about the movie frequently but only in passing, but over the last few months I felt drawn to it again. Only to discover you can't watch it, anywhere. But tonight I found a perfect full length version on YouTube and cried the whole time I watched it. Now being 25 and seemingly inserting childlike wonder and optimism into just about everything I can I can't help but give this movie some credit for helping me achieve the WONDERful outlook I have now. Wherever I was slowly turning grey on the inside as a result of a work, home, work, bills, home, work, clean, bills repetition, this movie filled me with color and wonder. I believe everyone should see this film, especially as an adult. And the music score?!?! Are you kidding! Phenomenal!! So moving. I'd see this movie accompanied by a live orchestra everyday for the rest of my life. All I'm saying is, the overall rating some shmucks gave this initially, made me feel terrible because this movie, this movie… is an absolute masterpiece. Thank you🍭🧡 Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/13/24 Full Review Read all reviews
