Steven Rosen Denver Post Toy 2 is colorful and funny, and the computer-animation from Pixar Animation Studios creates a convincingly detailed environment for the toys. Rated: 3/4 Aug 6, 2012 Full Review Paul Clinton (CNN.com) CNN.com Toy Story 2 is a brilliant example of that rarest of Hollywood phenomena a sequel to a major hit film thats as good, if not better, than the original.

Frank the Pug . I haven’t rewatched this movie in years, and I’ll be honest…I still love it. It has a solid story with good character development, the performances are all great, and while the animation hasn’t aged great sometimes (the extreme close-ups of Wheezy at the end are…certainly something), the writing easily makes up for it. Besides, it’s hilarious. Had a great time. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 06/25/25 Full Review Sebastian C Película muy buena, muy entretenida, con un buen sentido del humor, hace mucho no veia esta película y hoy que la vi con mi familia a decir verdad me saco muchas risas y muy buenos momentos. En mi opinión es de las mejores películas de Disney y la mejor de la saga de Toy Story, muy bien merecida la calificación que le dan. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/22/25 Full Review Ryan N This movie, to me, blew the first one out of the water! This was great! Zorg "I am your father" to Buzz Lightyear was great! Toooo much to say about this movie! It was a great addition of the other Woody cast stars!!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/22/25 Full Review Brayden G This film is enjoyable but its flaws with this movie is the character development and Plot Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 06/19/25 Full Review Paul S This is such a great sequel to a masterpiece of a movie! It's so much fun to watch and all of the characters are great. I definitely recommend it! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/04/25 Full Review James E Every bit as good as the first one, maybe even slightly better with the introduction of Joan Cusack and Kelsey Grammars amazing performances. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 06/02/25 Full Review Read all reviews
