As a kids movie is was pretty good. I can nit pick a lot of things. There are also things that seemed glaring. There is no reason for instance that the whole gang couldn't have gone on the adventure.
I did cry, quiet a bit, I also started laughing more then I have in any movie in a very long time. The car scene was really funny. My kids 8,6 and 1 were laughing, and I was laughing because oh my goodness that poor dad right, but that's from a parent's perspective.
I think stand alone it's fine, but I also feel disjointed with other movies in the franchise. The girl was only in kindergarten, meaning the very max amount of time from the last one is 3 years. And that assuming she was just three in the last one one now 6 and going to kindergarten. Just because your kid isn't playing with a toy now doesn't mean that won't change, especially for girls where traditional toys seems to hold favor for longer. There is no reason for woody to leave. Hubby said and I quote "all for a piece of tail". Now there is no problem heading that way, we grow up and leave home with someone we love and that's okay. But this wasn't that, it didn't strike me as change is good, it just seemed a bit flat.
The antagonist girl doll was great. I also liked forky. My 16month old made a small play dough guy recently and holy cow she loved that thing. If it hadn't been so, well playdough then I could have completely bought this situation. Bo was fun, but I keep thinking there were so many others ways to do this or end this. A happy ending isn't always needed, but in a kids movie (a small kids movie) it should be clear and not horrible. This was just odd.
Are they leaving room for more movies with woody? Are they leaving room for more movies with the other gang and not woody. I didn't hate it but I agree that the over all feeling was different. But again as a stand alone would be fine.
