Toy Story 4

Pixar and Disney once again prove that they can make a children's animated movie that can also speak to adults watching in the fourth film of the Toy Story series. Taking place some time after the third entry, it sees Woody and Andy's old toys still adjusting to their new life playing with Bonnie. As she goes into kindergarten, Bonnie makes her own toy out of a spork and other items which somehow comes to life. Seeing how important Forky is to their new owner, Woody and the other toys do everything they can to protect him even as they lose him at a carnival where they reunite with Bo Peep and face a doll who wants Woody's voice box. As is always with Pixar's animated films, the animation is not only spectacular but shows how far computer animation has come since the first Toy Story in 1995. Most of the cast return along with new memorable characters like Duke Caboom as voiced by Keanu Reeves, comedic duo Keegan-Michael Key and Jordan Peele as stuffed animals Ducky and Bunny, and Tony Hale as Forky who's constantly trying to get into garbage. Toy Story 4 has a well told story, an ending that's just as emotional and gut wrenching as 3, and incredibly funny moments that are hard to forget. A few things that did bother me were how Woody had to constantly get back into an antique store in order to rescue Forky and the toys's methods of keeping Bonnie's family from leaving the carnival by sabotaging their RV. One big change that makes this entry different from the last films is that Gabby Gabby, the antagonist voiced by Christina Hendricks, isn't an all out villain as she has a good reason for what she does and actually does get a happy ending that you root for. Whether or not this is the last entry as the third was believed to be, much like childhood and the toys you have, one ending can lead to a new beginning. Over all: 100%
