Toy Story 4 (2019)

Another Toy Story sequel that eschews the light, snappy buddy comedy antics of the first film for treacly sentimentality and toys dealing with PTSD or existential angst and making supreme sacrifices. This one's particularly messy and sweaty, with characters regularly changing motivation on a dime, or dropping out of the movie for long periods. It feels like a fan-fic story or perhaps a clumsy attempt to stitch a handful of tv show episodes into a connected narrative. Gets half a star more than TS3 because I chuckled a few times.
Rating: Awful
