If you don’t have ADD when you enter the theater, you will when this film is over. The show starts with sensation and shaky chairs and sound coming from everywhere. I was wondering how to turn down the sound.
Then we see Lightyear (the Chris Allen version) who seems to be an animated version of Tom Cruise in “Top Gun,” a smart-assed pilot who ignores the rules and the command and flies faster and farther than anybody thought he could.
Buzz does the same thing in animated fashion, only he ends up getting stuck on some nowhere place called T’Kani Prime and unable to get away.
Lucky for him he’s got a good crew and a new buddy, a feline named Sox (voiced by Peter Sohn) who knows more about just about anything you can name than Buzz.
This version adds things we haven’t seen before, perhaps because time moves along so quickly. Or maybe filmmakers are just catching up with society. Anyway there is a married pair of women, who have a kid who grows up and wants to be a space ranger too.
There’s a lot of other stuff I won’t bother you with, but suffice it to say that when they finally get back, Buzz is offered a new team. But he sticks with the crew he had. At least he’s learned something. Good for him.
