It's been a while since I watched Toy Story, but as I wasn't especially impressed I had few reasons to run around checking out Toy Story 2. However. As the third installment of the franchise was receiving so much praise, I had to get around to this prior.

My biggest concern with the original was the annoying morale puzzled into everything. Thankfully they did a more grown and laid back storyline in this one, and that makes all the difference in the world. Add in a nice little adventure, some solid references and a lot of fun, and you got yourself a hit. A truly enjoyable Pixar event, and I can't wait to check out the 3rd installment.
