Rating: “Great Stuff, Great Stuff”
Well me call me surprised. This is pretty great for the most part and without a doubt the best non Toy Story sequel Pixar has done. Which given their track record, isn’t saying a lot.
Yeah it’s not quite as amazing as the first film as it does lose some of the huge emotional core that first film had (like no scene in this came close to the tear jerker “Take Her To The Moon For Me” scene in the first film) and it did played on familiar ground in terms of plot and structure. But where it lacks in those departments, it makes up with some creative ideas that expands the series in an organic way, the animation is beautiful, it’s still really funny at times, the new emotions are fun editions (Maya and Eyo are the highlights and everytime they share the scene together it’s just pure gold), and it still had some solid emotional ground behind it to let those feelings (ha) it wanted to achieve hit affectively.
The future of Pixar might seem bleak given their recent statement about focusing more on sequels and less original films, but if they are going to shift their focus towards sequels, can they at least try to be very good like this? Please? I would take like 100 of these than another fucking Cars 2 or Lightyear any day of the week.
Also they should pull a Before Trilogy route and make one of these every 9 years or so. But that will never happen most likely.
