The Toy Story franchise is unstoppable. The excellence of the first two films continues unabated in this third installment… an average tier of 8.37 is nearly unheard of at Criticker. We saw this in 3D IMAX, and it was an incredible experience. Unfortunately, the rest of the new DVDs this week aren’t terribly impressive, with the possible exception of Winnebago Man, a documentary about the man behind one of Youtube’s classic viral videos.
