Toy Story 3
I know I’m not the only one who dreaded seeing this final installment of Toy Story. All I kept hearing is that it made grown men weep. Why would I want to go see something that is going to make me cry like a baby? Why? Because it’s Toy Story. The adventures of Andy’s toys: Woody, Buzz Lightyear, Jessie, Rex, Hamm, Mr and Mrs Potato Head, Slinky Dog, and Bullseye.
There is no other feeling than sitting in a sold-out theater for a kids’ movie with all adults. We were wearing our 3D glasses and ready to embark on this final journey with the toys. There were only two kids in the entire theater (probably because it was the second to last showing of the night). We all laughed and cried and enjoyed an incredible story.
I’m so thankful that I finally gave in and went to see this film. It was both beautiful and poignant. The creators at Pixar know just how to complete a story with heart and humanity. They make us all feel like kids again.
If you have not yet seen this film, please do so while it’s still in the theaters. It’s worth the extra couple of dollars for 3D. I’m not a big supporter of the 3D craze, but it was so comforting to be surrounded by the world of toys.
If you’ve ever loved a toy you will love this movie.
Rated G.
