Been to see it with my four year old.

Technically this must be the finest animation ever made. We saw it in 3D and it is astonishing. The story is a little uneven and was probably a little overwhelming for son. It is hard to know who the target audience is. Thematically it is very adult.

There are just about enough 'cute' moments for kids but it is no Toy Story. This is a beautifully rendered (literally) allegorical tale that is certainly worth seeing in 3D particularly.

9/10 (it loses a point for the slightly uneven storyline)

If you see it in 3d it makes it pretty dramatic for a youngster - much of it is filmed 'high up' and it is so real it feels perilous - especially in the final scenes.

Visually it is truly stunning.

The trailer for this looked amazing when I went to see Final Dest 3D.. Toy Story 3 also looks amazing.
Avatar is also one to watch for. Great season of a great new kind of film coming up!

He kept taking his glasses off when it got a bit intense. He was mostly OK.

i watched it with my 2 year old son as i thought it would be good as he loves monsters inc, cars etc but left thinking it was a horrendous movie, also noticed quite alot of people leaving in the movie and never returning. just could not get into it.

I've been trying to find a cinema showing Toy Story 3D with no luck. I know it was for a limited period of time only but nothing.

Any one seen it?

Yes I saw it. It was only on last week. It was indeed just like Toy Story - but in 3D.

Like everything Pixar does it was technically accomplished. Very good - my 4 year old enjoyed but takes the 3D glasses off when it gets dramatic.
