As someone who never grew up with Toy Story, I have to say I enjoyed the sequel adventure, but really didn't feel much else for it.

Yes, I just copied that from my Toy Story review, because these two movies are just so similar in my mind.… Expand

In this film, Woody will discover his own past of fame and prestige after being kidnapped by a collector of antique toys and put in contact with toys that are part of his own collection: his horse, an intrepid cowgirl called Jessie and a miner named Stinky Pete. Directed by John Lasseter, who continues his earlier work, the film retains most of the voice actors that were present in Toy Story.

Despite the bad reputation of sequels, this film managed to remain the level of its predecessor, developing to him a coherent sequence of events. This sense of continuity between them was achieved largely thanks to the maintenance of technical staff and initial voice actors. The novelty of this film, in fact, is the introduction of new characters, directly linked to the past of Woody (which the audience will discover along with himself), who will have a major role in the outcome of the film. The collecting is a matter intelligently placed in this film, allowing to reveal a little of what has been the history of the toys, from the fifties until today. Less interesting had the soundtrack, despite the appointment of "When She Loved Me" for the Oscar for Best Original Song. In fact, after the resounding success of the soundtrack of the first film with "You've Got a Friend in Me", also nominated for the statuette, it would be difficult to obtain similar impact.

For all these reasons, this movie deserves to be considered one of the best sequels of animated film and a great family film and deserves to be seen and reviewed by young and old.… Expand

Best Star Wars reference ever! This film was so great that I cry every time when 'When she loved me' comes out. I miss all my toys, and the memories with them. Just saying, Pixar doesn't just make sequels without reasons.

Toy Story 2 (1999): The animation is great, the twist villian is surprising, it expands the world, and it introduces many new characters; a stark improvement over it's predecessor.

I just saw Toy Story 2 an hour ago and I must say that, despite all the great reviews, I was still surprised about the quality....It started absolutely marvellous; one of the greatest and humorous opening sequences ever. The plot is really smart, the animation is brilliant and the humor...Oh man! The last 50 minutes must be the most fun 50 minutes I had in years and believe me, I'm NOT exaggerating. It seems impossible to imagine the fun the writers must have had, because this is a true film-fest whether you do like Disney-esque films or don't.

Having this fast-paced storyline, John Lasseter & Co. exploited it to a maximum. Cameo's from Pixar-characters (Geri's the coolest), unexpected and obliged references to other big films (really love the Jurrasic Park one), great new characters (Wheezy!!), and more jokes and gags rammed in an animated feature than you'll ever see and of course the out takes.

The action-department is also greatly represented in some astonishing sequences with great, original shots and angles. The music is moody and Randy Newman is at his best with the really non-disturbing, appropriate song about Jessie, which is definitely the message of this film.

O.K., I know I'm raving, but I really meant it when I chose the ten and clicked the "Vote" button. This film is great and I recommend it to every film-lover.

A few downsides (this hardly affects the overall film) are I think, first of all the lack of originality, which is excusable and acceptable for a sequel. Second, the still somewhat jerky animation of the humans (I know they said it was supposed to be, but I disagree that). And third: the ratio, 1:1,85 (I thought it was the theater, but Pixar is forgiven, seen the quality of the film.) These are minors things and my decision is final, Toy Story 2 is certainly included in my top 20.

O.K., now you may stand up and ring a friend to go and see it, come on!!… Expand

"Toy Story 2" is arguably even better than its predecessor, with more clever storytelling, hysterical jokes and very poignant moments.

La vida de los juguetes cobra un giro inesperado cuando una venta de garage pone en riesgo la permanencia de unos juguetes, y Woody en su intento de ayudar, termina siendo raptado. La historia es muy creativa para continuar este concepto de los juguetes con vida, cada personaje nuevo y su historia es muy interesante, y le da mucho valor a la historia.
En esta ocasión no hay nada que opaque a "Toy Story 2", es una historia que tiene de todo, comedia, acción, giros inesperados, mejor animación.
Sencillamente no se la pierdan.… Expand

Named my favorite film of all-time, Toy Story 2 is nothing less than a masterpiece. Full of charm, heart, and "I think I'm going to cry" moments, it wastes no time developing its characters and introducing its core themes.

A pretty fun movie with some heart-breaking and emotional moments (that "When She Loved Me" song scene still makes me cry everytime I watch it). This is an animated masterpiece and one of the few animated sequels that doesn't have a drop in quality and it manages to be as good, if not, better than the previous movie.… Expand

TheThis movie isn't as ground-breaking as the first, but Toy Story 2 is a flat-out miracle that it's a really good movie. This movie had so many production problems that I find it a major triumph and revolution of 3-D animated movies. The animation has already improved from the first and the story is harmless and witty and in no way offensive to its predecessor. I would say this movie relies too much on references to Star Wars, Jurassic Park, and other movies as its source of humor. What made the first Toy Story so funny is the new humor it created by inventing jokes that toys might say if they were alive. This movie has hardly any of that and relies a lot on references. The one thing I can think of that improves upon the first is the emotional beats which really worked for me at the end of the second act and finale. Toy Story 2 is a good movie, better than most Dreamworks movies, but it remains my least favorite Toy Story movie. But again, considering all the production troubles, I am extremely impressed with this movie and the quality of entertainment that it is.… Expand

Woody gets kidnapped by a greedy toy collector voiced by Wayne Knight and Buzz with the rest of the toys go to rescue him at Al’s Toy Barn. Since it came out four years later, the animation is a bit more polished and modern looking, but either way it’s still ageless! There are a couple of new characters introduced including Jesse and Bullseye who were good additions and added to the story. Most of the cast from the first film reprised their roles in this one including Tom Hanks and Tim Allen. Just like it’s predecessor, this film manages to be entertaining for the whole family, kids and adults. There are a lot of great jokes throughout and references to other well known movies which were all well done. This film is a perfect example of a sequel that does everything almost as good as the original, and it’s just as much of a classic!… Expand
