Amazon.co.uk Review
John Lasseter and his gang of high-tech creators at Pixar create another entertainment for the ages. Like the handful of other great movie sequels, Toy Story 2 comments on why the first one was so wonderful while finding a fresh angle worthy of a new film. The craze of toy collecting becomes the focus here, as we find out Woody (voiced by Tom Hanks) is not only a beloved toy to Andy but also a rare doll from a popular 60s children's show. When a greedy collector takes Woody, Buzz Lightyear (Tim Allen) launches a rescue mission with Andy's other toys. To say more would be a crime because this is one of the most creative and smile-inducing films since, well, the first Toy Story. Although the toys look the same as in the 1994 feature, Pixar shows how much technology has advanced: the human characters look more human, backgrounds are superior, and two action sequences that book-end the film are dazzling. And it's a hoot for kids and adults. The film is packed with spoofs, easily accessible in-jokes and inspired voice casting (with newcomer Joan Cusack especially a delight as Cowgirl Jessie). But as the Pixar canon of films illustrates, the filmmakers are storytellers first. Woody's heart-tugging predicament can easily be translated into the eternal debate of living a good life versus living for forever. Toy Story 2 was deservedly a huge box-office success. --Doug Thomas, Amazon.com

 Superb July 22, 2008
Clever, imaginative, charming and very, very funny. Note the jokey references to Jurassic Park and Star Wars.
 Great, but not as great as TS1 December 18, 2007
Sorry, not the best review really - If you loved TS then you will like this, but not quite so much (IMHO!)
More adventure and more laughs! September 6, 2006

Another great film from Pixar, during a period when computer animated films were still a bug thing, unlike now where they come out all the time, and we take them for granted.
This sequel is almost perfect really - even the computer technology had advanced over the 6 year gap, and the film looks so more detailed than the original. The plot is more adventerous, and the new characters are a real laugh, making it very fresh.
I think the first film was more "original" but this sequel has more of the laughs!
A brilliant film, if anything better than the original. January 19, 2005

There is a rumour that this was planned as a straight to video (DVD) release and it only secured a cinematic release when Pixar realised how good it was. It certainly was good enough.A great story following the gang attempting to rescue Woody after a toy collector has kidnapped him (technically I guess he is stolen but it feels like a kidnapping). As in the first film the story works on a number of different levels successfully appealing to children and adults. Once again the animation is fantastic and the vocal talents superb: Tom Hanks, Tim Allen, Kelsey and Joan Cusack are all excellent. Simply wonderful
Toy Heaven fun for people of all ages July 3, 2004
