Alternate Versions
Two versions of the film have been releases, each one with different fake outtakes over the end credits. This was done because Disney hoped it would encourage people to view the film a second time. However, the 2005 Special Edition DVD has blank credits, and the bloopers appear as a separate bonus feature. See more »

"Toy Story 2" is equal to its predecessor. Some may say it is better (I am not sure about that) but it is on par with the original. This time Woody is stolen by a greedy toy collector and it is up to Buzz Lightyear and their friends to rescue him. The film is great-looking, the voice characterizations are all perfect and the film's screenplay is so intelligent that "Toy Story 2" would have been successful under the worst of circumstances. 5 stars out of 5.
