Watch Toy Story 2 For Free

Sorry, this movie sucks

Admirable film.

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Having seen and enjoyed the original Toy Story, this came as one of the best sequels ever to grace the screen. We get a back story for our favorite cowboy figure and some new characters to boot. Plus some clever spoofs and references from other sources. And much of the original cast returns to make the movie worthwhile. This is the sequel to see from Pixar, though there aren't very many Pixar sequels out there. But please see it and enjoy it. It's really a fun movie.

I should say that "Toy Story 2" isn't a masterpiece, but still entertaining. What I particularly liked about it is how we see some characters' histories expanded and even get introduced to the evil Emperor Zurg (Buzz's sworn enemy). As usual, there are some references to movies outside the franchise to catch the adults' attention.So, the tykes will probably enjoy the action while the parents will laugh at the references. Not my favorite movie by any stretch but still fun. I suspect that back when Wallace Shawn first made a splash in "My Dinner with Andre"*, no one ever envisioned him voicing a toy dinosaur in a Disney movie (or even starring in a movie like "The Princess Bride").*My parents met him and Andre Gregory around the time that MDwA got released. The four of them had dinner together and had a philosophical conversation about the movie.

After the first Toy Story film (released in 1995) wowed audiences, the public clamored (despite the Pixar policy of not making animated films into sequel franchises) for an encore. Thus, in 1999, Toy Story 2 was released and, remarkably, surpassed even the highest of expectations, besting the original (no small feat).For a basic plot summary, this film sees Sheriff Woody (voiced by Tom Hanks) get "kidnapped" by a money-hungry toy collector, who needs the Woody doll to complete the now-infamous set from the classic "Woody's Roundup" TV show (the origins of the Woody doll). With Andy away at cowboy camp, Buzz Lightyear (Tim Allen) and the rest of the toybox gang plot and execute a rescue mission. Little do they know, though, that Woody, upon meeting the rest of his gang-- Stinky Pete (Kelsey Grammar), horse Bullseye, and Jessie the Cowgirl (Joan Cusack)--forms a bond that may lead him to spend the rest of his shelf-life inside a museum.What really makes this film work is that the writers/producers made the brilliant decision to include Woody's backstory into the movie, as it would have been very easy to focus (once again) on Buzz and have the cowboy play second-fiddle. Instead, the story actually hones in on Woody and the big decisions he must make. Of course, the entire film is also filled with hilarious sight gags, situations, and jokes that both children and adults will enjoy with equal enthusiasm. In terms of both humor and storytelling, this effort eclipses the original by quite a wide margin.Plus, the addition of the Bullseye and Jessie characters are welcome (and vital) new additions to the show, as their presence leads to some pretty tense emotional drama. In a music-video montage involving the girl Jessie doll, you may find yourself holding back (or letting go) tears. The best part of it is, you won't even feel as if you are watching nothing but a bunch of carefully constructed pixels...you will come to view them as characters as real as you or I.Thus, in a remarkable feat, Pixar was able to improve on the ground-breaking original Toy Story and take things up even another notch. As Toy Story 3 currently begins playing in theatres across the country, it will be interesting to see if the ante will be upped once again. As usual, it will be a difficult task.

Toy Story 2 was the sequel that confirmed Pixar was here to stay. After A Bug's Life didn't do as well as the company could have hoped for, they needed a huge hit. So why not a great sequel to the movie that started it all? In this one, Woody is stolen by the creepy toy collector we all turned out to be (played by Wayne Knight), and Andy's toys must go out and rescue him before Andy gets back from Cowboy Camp. Meanwhile, Woody finds out he's a rare toy from an old television marionette show when he meets Jessie (Joan Cusack), Stinky Pete (Kelsey Grammar), and a horse named Bullseye, who were all characters on the show as well. So the toys are on a hilarious, exciting, and fun adventure while Woody needs to decide where his loyalties lie. This movie is as good and, in many ways, better than its predecessor. It's absolutely hilarious, with so many gags is possible to miss quite a few of them in the first viewing. The animation is improved upon. The adventure has high stakes. Everything feels like an action film, except for kids. However adults cam find so much enjoyment too. This film tackles abandonment and growing up, and what it means to be loved. Absolutely amazing. I give this film a 9/10.
