Toy Story, being the first 3D computer animated feature length blockbuster from Pixar, has influenced many animations since and revolutionised animation. Toy Story is a smooth, realistic and impressive 3D animation with a great storyline of a fun "what-if" scenario touching on friendship and acceptance. The toy characters are animated and voiced magnificently. Woody (Tom Hanks) and Buzz (Tim Allen) have real character, which the audience can relate to.
