Disney Pixar’s Toy Story 1 & 2 in 3D Review

So I took the wife and little one (age 3) to see these movies yesterday. This is the first movie my little one has seen on the big screen. I am glad we waited for her to see 2 of her favorite movies in the theater, it makes it more memorable for us as a family.

The movie going experience went well from the moment we walked in. The theater was not packed as I hoped and prayed it wouldn’t be. There were more adults reliving their youth than younger kids. It was probably due to the fact the showtime was when most kids take their nap. With large popcorn, drinks, glasses and candy in hand we venture out to find a seat in this somewhat empty auditorium.

As we fight over the large popcorn the lights go down and as we watch the opening trailers. We are greeted by Toy Story 3 preview, the Chipmunks, and a few other uninteresting trailers. Meanwhile my daughter is double fisting our popcorn, the screen goes white and we see the shadows of familiar Toy Story Characters joking around with the audience. She loved it and laughed the whole time they were on screen, that was a nice touch.

The movie was really cool in 3D it wasnt to gimmick-ey and overdone, it was very cool to see the film spruced up this way. My daughter didnt want to wear the glasses for long but was fine seeing the movie blurry looking in parts.

Toy Story 1 is a great movie but my sweet pea likes 2 better because of Jesse, Toy Story 1 seems like a little boys movie. For the most part she sat there and watched the movie till she had to go potty and wanted to run around at the end of the movie. She is only 3 so we expect that.

So after potty breaks a 10 minute intermission begins, featuring some interesting Toy Story trivia and clips. The trivia was great and I learned a lot of things I didn’t know about Toy Story and Pixar! I liked the countdown timer, reminded me of something you would see at DisneyWorld.

Toy Story 2 seems like more scenes were in 3D than the first one, it looked like different objects were coming right off the screen. About half way through the movie my wife and little one pass out. I think the lull of sitting in a seat for 3+ hrs is making everyone sleepy. I myself probably dosed off for a minute or two. Guess I am getting old. After our quick power nap we finish up the movie and stay for the closing credits and giggle at the outtakes.

Overall it was a wonderful experience we had a great time, killed a better portion of the day, and our daughter did really well for her first time going to a movie. I recommend going to see this double feature while it is in theaters, I know if you have kids you have seen this movie a hundred times over but seeing it in 3D was great and all the little extras Disney/Pixar gives new life to a classic movie.

Having left the theater and started walking out to the car I realize I left Woody under the seat in the auditorium. I run back and see the person cleaning up the huge mess we just made of popcorn, napkins, and 3d Glasses bags. I tell him I left Woody behind, we both chuckled and he commented “just like in the movie”…
