But hey, what can you expect from a movie named "Toy Story 3," especially with the humans mostly offstage? I expect its target audience will love it, and at the box office, it may take right up where " How to Train Your Dragon" left off. This is a jolly, slapstick comedy, lacking the almost eerie humanity that infused the earlier “Toy Story” sagas, and happier with action and jokes than with characters and emotions. There is a happy ending, of course, but I suspect these toys may be traumatized for eternity.

They pick up, however, some additions to their little band, including a Ken doll with an extensive wardrobe. There seems to be relatively little grieving about the loss of Andy's affections he did, after all, sentence them to a toy box for years, and toys by nature are self-centered and want to be played with.ĭay care seems like a happy choice, until a dark underside of its toy society emerges in the person of an ominously hug-prone bear named Lotso ( Ned Beatty). What with one thing and another, the other toys find themselves at the day-care center, which they think they'll like, because there will be plenty of kids to play with them all day long.
