Lightyear - Reviews

...succeeds as escapist summer entertainment for the family.

...is an unabashed attempt at classic space opera, and the visuals of the film are often the movie’s biggest strengths.

It’s a good one-time watch for anyone who’s grown up loving Toy Story.

...it does engage, thrill and amuse, and at times delivers an emotional wallop.

Kids will love Lightyear. Adults will enjoy it.

...it reminds you why we loved Pixar in the first place: wit, fun, storytelling and heart.

...a fun, frenetic experience.

...a beautiful starship with precious genre cargo, functional and direct in its simple mission to carry on.

...manages to have all of the heart and emotional impact we’ve come to expect from Pixar while still feeling as derivative as one would expect a movie about a toy from another movie to be. 

...an action-packed and visually stunning experience that puts less of a premium on Pixar’s legendary heartfelt comedy.

With its fabulous animation, honorable hero, and lovable sidekicks, this tribute to a host of space adventures is a story of perseverance, teamwork, and friendship.
