movie review- Toy story (1st story)

Introduction

This movie is a very funny movie. It is composed full CG image. This image is very real and beautiful. That way this movie won an Academy Special Achievement Award, I think. Toy story was released by Disney in 1995. Director is John A. Lasseter. This movie is watched all over the world. Of cause it is watched in Japan too. In Japan, it released in 1996. This movie's income was over 6 hundred million.

There are many fun characters in this story. For example, Woody, Buzz, Slinky Dog, Mr. Potato head and so on. They are toys of Andy. Andy is a boy. He likes toys.
