I'm often skeptical when sequels come out. I believe in the saying, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." When those brilliant Hollywood studio execs decide to remake a TV classic into a movie, I cringe. When they commission an SNL movie, I shudder. When they demand sequel after sequel, I gag. I was nervous about the third installment of TS, but I was pleasantly surprised.
I missed some of the toys, including Bo Peep, but I enjoyed Jesse and Bullseye. Once again, a supposedly cute toy is a vaillian. However, there were more laugh-out-loud moments in this movie than I expected, including the moment when Mr. Potato Head becomes Mr. Latke. I enjoy Estelle Harris a great deal and loved it whenever Mrs. Potato Head had a line.
TS3 was very sad, but I think it's a nice conclusion for an epic saga. I really hope that this is the end because to do future installments would do a huge disservice to the movie's premise (not to mention the fans). Good job, Pixar! Maybe you'll pick up on Oscar for this movie.
