Featured review
Marry a horse, go to jail
Woody's finest hour indeed (Toy Story 2, anyone?). This is one of the most hilarious and wonderfully paced comedies out there. The commentary by the narrator is priceless; truly outrageous while spoken in a dignified tone. I miss comedies that had tons of sight gags, but weren't just throwaway, but very, very clever. 'Take the Money and Run' has at least three gags and hidden jokes a minute, and they're all brilliant!
In all honesty, I haven't seen that many of Woody's movies, but I can safely say this is the best one. It's inspired me to see what I can carve out of soap!
