As good as the first.

Not as good as the original but still fun to watch.

fun, fun, fun. as good or better than the first

Better than the original and that was a really good flick.

Excellent!
Toy Story 2, like the original, is a wonderful movie that captures the imagination! With excellent computer graphics (provided by Pixar) and voice-over performances from Tim Allen and Tom Hanks, this movie is entertaining and very funny. You just can’t love the hilarious antics of Buzz Lightyear and the rest of the gang on their quest to save their pal, Woody from the grasp of an evil toy collector.
Every toy creates a charming on-screen presence that stays in your thoughts after watching the movie. Don’t be surprised if you second guess the ‘magic’ of your children’s toys or even your own.

A slam’n movie, buz still rules the silver screen.

TOY STORY 2 goes even further than the original, with a better script & more

Disney has always had a stranglehold on the motion picture animated industry. Even in a year with a varied amount of animated movies, including the satrical South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut and the critically acclaimed Iron Giant, Disney still ruled with another hit in Tarzan. Disney decided to throw out another animated feature for 1999, and it is Toy Story 2, engineered by the geniuses at Pixar, who brought us the revolutionary original, Toy Story and the clever sophomore effort, A Bug’s Life. Where these two have very minor flaws, Pixar fixed every one of them in Toy Story 2, which is most likely the best of the bunch.

The original Toy Story was a clever movie, but more importantly, it was revolutionary for being the first major motion picture that was animated through computer generation. Movie audiences were enthralled by this, and despite being a very clever film, Toy Story was overshadowed by its own benchmark-setting. A Bug’s Life tried to show that Pixar could not only animate, but make a good film as well. However, the addition of flowing backgrounds and more lifelike settings still overshadowed the actual film. With Toy Story 2, however, Pixar is able to generate the best graphics yet, but more importantly, it is overshadowed by a very clever and funny film.

In Toy Story 2, all of the major players are back, with the addition of a few others. Tom Hanks and Tim Allen are back, and impeccable yet again, as Woody and Buzz Lightyear, respectively. The rest of the casted voices are wonderful as well. Don Rickles (Mr. Potato Head), Jim Varney (Slinky Dog), John Ratzenberger (Hamm), Annie Potts (Bo Peep) and Wallace Shawn (Rex) are back from the original, and do yet another wonderful job, plus there are even more stars providing their vocals for the film. Joan Cusack (Jessie the Cowgirl), Wayne Knight (Al the Toy Collector) and Kelsey Grammer (The Prospector) stand out from this ensemble. Just like all Disney animated films, the voice acting is dead on and is one of the most underrated aspects of Disney’s animated features.

The premise for Toy Story 2 is very simple and easy for children to understand. Woody, while saving fellow toy Wheezy, gets caught in a Yard Sale. When Al the Toy Collector tries to buy him, Andy’s Mom refuses. However, Al takes him anyway. The toys see this, and Buzz, Hamm, Rex and Mr. Potato Head set out to save Woody. Woody gets taken back by Al to meet up with some other toys, Jessie the Cowgirl, the Prospector and Bullseye. Woody finds out he used to be the star of a wildly popular children’s TV show. The movie than chronicles the toys attempt to save Woody and Woody’s realization that all toys do not last forever.

Unlike a lot of children’s films, especially The Adventures of Elmo in Grouchland, Toy Story 2 does not try to teach a sentimental lesson. There are some underlying issues, like friendship and the life span of a toy, but in the end, Toy Story 2 just tries to entertain us and does a terrific job of it. The script is very clever and despite being aimed towards children, adults will have no choice but to laugh at this wonderful film.

The original Toy Story was revolutionary, but was not always consistently funny. Toy Story 2, on the other hand, is funny and witty throughout all of the one hour and twenty-five minutes. For one stretch of the film, Buzz, Hamm, Rex and Mr. Potato Head are in Al’s Toy Store and this is arguably the best stretch of the film as the quartet interacts with a whole new set of toys, including Barbie, Rock ‘Em-Sock ‘Em Robots and the new and improved Buzz Lightyear. As said before, the film will appeal to adults, as well as children, and Pixar accomplishes this without keeping the kids in the dark. For instance, one scene has Rex chasing his pals who are driving in a car. To the children, it just looks like a silly scene. To the older audience members, it is a very clever spoof of Jurassic Park, as Mr. Potato Head checks his rear-view mirror to see the on-charging dinosaud, just like Jurassic Park.

In the end, Toy Story 2 cannot help but let you leave with a smile on your face. Instead of suscepting to the sequel curse and using stupid humor, Toy Story 2 improves upon the original and will have you talking about it for days on end. The tagline for Toy Story 2 is "The Toys are Back in Town" and if we are lucky, they will make a few more visits before packing it in for good.

Final Verdict: A

a great, fun story - possibly better than the first - a must-see!!
i laughed beginning to end, i love trying to pick out the voices, the story was great. made me want to get out my old toys and play!!!

If you saw it before the "outtakes", you’ve gotta go back!
Great animation - so good it’s almost scary!

The story-line was a little weak in some places, but the "Star Wars" humor and the incredible animation made up for it. If you don’t have kids, I’d suggest going to a late show though…

As good, if not better than the first… and that’s saying a lot for a sequel!
Toy Story 2 had me laughing out loud, especially during the outtakes. It’s another great story about life as a toy. Great for all ages. Can’t wait to buy the DVD and watch it again to see all the little details I missed the first time.

I loved this movie. Fantastic animation - great story!

Buzz, Woody and friends are back along with some new toys and another adventure. Still not as funny as the first movie but worth a matinee show.

Great movie! Better than the first!! Everyone should see it!!!

Entertaining, but I did not like it as much as a Bug’s Life.
A Bug’s Life did a better job at appealing towards an older crowd.

Tom Hanks voice also got on my nerves at times. Hilight of the movie was Newman!

More trash from Disney
Disney is at it again! Making yet another high budget movie that nobody under 5 would enjoy.
Tom Hanks, the Vogue Butt-Baring, bosom buddy is back with his annoying antics and nasally bark.
Equally as annoying, or , shall we say, "unqualified," is Tim Allen, the coke-snortin’, fraudy-ass handyman.
Are these corporate clowns really qualified to play the roles of zany, wacky children’s toys?
Disney is trying so hard, that it hurts. Even Pixar can’t save its ass.

This movie was definitely worth seeing. Humor for everyone.

Very funny movie, good play on current toy lines, and barbie was really cute.

funnier than the first i thought. went out and bought the mcdonald’s toys!
amazing computer animation aside, the story is so cute and the plot tight the dialogue
witty. all the familiar characters are back and i just thought it was really fun to watch. go at
a later time when the kiddies are in bed already.
