Eleven years in the making, Disney/Pixar Animation Studios newest masterpiece, Toy Story 3, has proved to be worth the wait. The movie, which is the last in the epic Toy Story saga, follows Sheriff Woody and Buzz Lightyear, along with their friends, in their latest adventure.

All three Toy Story films are the same in the way that they revolve around Andy's toys, struggling to find their way home. The film begins as Andy is getting ready for college, his toys locked away in a trunk. Feeling neglected and unloved, the toys decide it's time to leave their home and they head to Sunnyside Daycare — big mistake. The toys soon regret their decision, and work together as they battle their way home.

The movie provides both tears and laughs, one of the funniest moments being when Buzz is accidentally set into Spanish-speaking mode and briefly takes on a whole new persona. Maybe it was Pixar's way of appealing to the Spanish-speaking community, but whatever the case, Spanish Buzz is reason enough to laugh out loud.

The hardships endured by Woody, Buzz and the gang might just make Toy Story 3 the most touching film in the series. For us '90s babies who dragged our parents to Toy Story and Toy Story 2, and have, in a strange sense, grown up with Andy and his toys, the movie hits especially close to home. Still, like all great movies, Toy Story 3 definitely has something for everybody, and is sure to warm hearts the way only a Pixar movie can. Did you hear that, DreamWorks?
