The movie was fun. I have a hard time understanding an audience that needs every story and artistic message to be preapproved by themselves first.

The hyperrealistic animation is incredible and the story is engaging. There are some emotional moments, but overall it is mostly light-hearted fun. Good concept and execution. Also wonderful to see LGBTQ+ inclusion in big budget animation. Don't let the insecure far-right review bomb scare you away from this gem… Expand

As with most other Pixar offerings, "Lightyear" serves up a visually resplendent feast of solid storytelling and clean character work. Where the rubber really meets the road, however, is in this movie's relation to its source material. A kindAs with most other Pixar offerings, "Lightyear" serves up a visually resplendent feast of solid storytelling and clean character work. Where the rubber really meets the road, however, is in this movie's relation to its source material. A kind of "Kill-Bill-to-Pulp-Fiction" dynamic is at work here, so to speak, with "Lightyear" representing a piece of media within another piece of media — that being "Toy Story." Tragically, what should be the movie's biggest selling point ends up actually being its most substantive issue, with so much of its attempts at being its own thing ultimately flying in the face of the world in which it spawned from. Whether one looks at the retcons employed or the narrative inconsistencies therein, fans of the "Toy Story" trilogy may find themselves getting frustrated in their attempts at connecting this to the other films. Again, it's a real shame, because I think everything's decently executed. I just find the reasons behind the existentiality of the film to be a little weak overall.… Expand

This Pixar film is easily one of the top 5 I've seen, and I've seen all of them except for Soul. Maybe top 3. Let's start with the good. It's a beautiful film with great direction and the pacing was great. Now the bad...it was a little predictable knowing who the villain was going to be and the villain changing his tune. But other than that, I really enjoyed it. Lastly, I guess some people were upset that Tim Allen wasn't Buzz. This is completely idiotic since in reality most talking toys don't have the actual voice of the actor. Chris Evans has a very "Buzz" voice and it worked well. Other than that, haters gonna hate.… Expand

It could have been a new character and it wouldn't do a difference. In fact, I think the movie would have been better without that reference. Because in terms of scifi story with time travel, it is pretty good. If certain parts are repetitive, it is more an effect of the story. The cat is a fun addition. This is a Pixar movie, so you know you get solid visuals. Good action. The music was a mix bag for me. The sounds effects were strong and I had no problem with the voices over. I give the movie 68%. Disney made a big mistake by using Buzz instead of a new hero. They tried a cheap cashing with nostalgia and alienated Pixar's fan. Do yourself a favour and watch the movie by thinking that Buzz isn't there. You will see a good scifi movie for what it should be.… Expand

This is just an awesome implementation of origins of Buzz Lightyar with all modern Disney attributes, like action, cute character (Sox) and time travel. Good one.

Meh. It was an average movie, with a lot of plot holes and without the beloved Pixar formula.

Chris Evans was fine (though I did miss Tim Allen a bit; he brought the Kirk vibe to Buzz in Toy Story for me). I really liked Uzo Aduba.

A nice story featuring Buzz in the film role Andy from Toy Story first saw him in, that led to him wanting the famous Buzz toy featured in said Toy Story films. It has some interesting twists although its not greatly memorable in and of itself. It felt a bit like a long TV show, rather than a particularly good, large scale film as such. It explains the origins of the famous 'to infinity...and beyond' catchphrase. I thought the inclusion of a cat character was a bit random - its kind of sweet but also, as I say, random. I wouldn't say this is great but its not a bad film either - its a pretty ok, reasonably good film of its type, I reckon. I'd recommend it if it sounds of interest, yes.… Expand

Edit: one day after, i watched the 30+ minutes documentary movie "beyond infinity: buzz and the journey to lightyear" about the highs and lows in the process of making "lightyear", i realized how hard it was to make this "lightyear" buzz distinct from the "toy story" buzz, because...this buzz is a man with a life and not just a toy, the liveliness, the animations (especially buzz's appearance), the stressful 2020 pandemic, etc. i see myself didnt give enough credit to these the behind the scenes, i felt sorry; my rating is now 8/10.
Meanwhile, i have high hope of how the actual origin of buzz lightyear will unfold in the sequel, we did have a sneak peak about buzz's past when he cheered the old guy in the team up by saying: "when i first went to the academy, i was not..you know..good, i screwed up everyday..."; and let's not forget zurg, curious to see that too, you'll know what i mean if you saw the final credit.… Expand

The level of animation displayed here is absolutely incredible. The footage of the landscapes as well as the facial expressions of Buzz and other characters are so realistic it is kind of scary. Chris Evans does a decent job of replacing Tim Allen and after a while his voice basically became Buzz. I wished there was more of an emotional punch but that relationship with Alisha really got me. The plot is actually rather complicated and some kids might not be able to understand what the heck is going on in the last act of the film. Lightyear in some ways feels like one of the Star Trek films. Michael Giacchino's score feels very patriotic and heroic which I really enjoyed. The 'Infinite MOEtion' cue is stunning. Overall though, it is really well done and entertaining although parents might appreciate this more than kids.… Expand
