It is the third installment of the Star Wars sequel trilogy, following The Force Awakens (2015) and The Last Jedi (2017). It is the final episode of the nine-part "Skywalker saga" and was produced by Lucasfilm and Abrams's production company Bad Robot Productions. Its distributed by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures.

Wanting to avoid spoilers I decided to go watch the advance screening of the film which will air in the Philippines from December 20 to 22 on selected theaters throughout the country due to the MMFF. The film has already gotten mixed reviews from critics. And I wanted to see if myself to give my own too cents on it.

Geekatana Movie Review: Toy Story 2 (1999)

Released four years after the original Toy Story the plot that was to be the sequel to the original 1995 film wasn't originally made to be a full animated motion picture and was supposed to be a direct to video sequel instead. The folks at Pixar and Disney however pushed for the plot to be turned into a movie so around thirty minutes of additional animated footage was added.

As most movie critics would tell you getting a movie sequel to work is very, very hard. Most movie sequels tend to fell short of the original and is often the downfall so the folks at Pixar and Disney must be really confident to push this one into movie form.

Created by Pixar and released by Walt Disney Toy Story was one of those animated features that are aimed towards kids and young adults but has enough on the nose content that adults and parents alike can relate to as well. Something both Pixar and Disney seem to have slowly mastered.
