Toy Story (1995)
Toy Story is a 1995 American computer-animated film produced by Pixar Animation Studios and released by Walt Disney Pictures. The story follows Woody, an old-fashioned pull-string cowboy toy, and Buzz Lightyear, a modern astronaut action figure. Their connection evolves from rivals competing for Andy Davis' affections to friends working together to reunite with Andy after being separated from him.
Toy Story had the highest opening weekend gross, grossing over $373 million worldwide, making it 1995's second highest-grossing picture. The film received positive reviews from reviewers, and it has a rare 100% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes. It was praised for its technical breakthrough in 3D animation, as well as the screenplay's humor and conceptual complexity, musical soundtrack, and vocal performances (particularly by Hanks and Allen), and is largely recognized as one of the best-animated films ever made.
