As a stand along film, this would be incredible but as a sequel to the other three, it somewhat lacked.
The movie sadly shows little of the other toys (being a Rex fan, I was disappointed) and mainly revolves around Woody and partly Forky. It also shows very little of Andy, I get that he's grown up and no longer requires them but it would have been much better to see Andy give Bonnie the toys.
All being said, I did enjoy the movie and even got emotional at the end... I just think it would have been better as a stand alone movie rather than part of the franchise.

Very interesting storytelling, something I haven't encountered before, but loved it. If you know any movies that follow the same concept, I would love your suggestions.
We enter the life of a hotel management, a hotel that has a life of its own. We follow the owner and the lobby boy, as they try to solve a mystery regarding a rich and powerful woman, that gets murdered but has an interesting will.
These people embark on an adventure for truth, in times where everything seems to be against them.
I loved the cameos from so many popular actors, and also loved the dry humour. A very beautiful, intriguing and unique movie.

Bailey and Gage have been friends since they were children, and after a previous accident, Bailey stepped in to support Gage by becoming a live-in nanny for his adorable daughter Scarlett.
Great in theory, but the undeniable attraction between Bailey and Gage could not go ignored. But will it be enough for a happy ending?
I really enjoyed reading the first in the Seattle Sharks series, getting to know the sharks and learning the heart warming story of the blossoming passion and love between Bailey and Gage.
The story was wonderfully well written, and the energy and emotions were palpable. I look forward to reading the others in the series.

Inspired by the incredible true story of how the people of Denmark saved their Jewish neighbours...
Gary Born is a master at creating a vibrant and descriptive story. He has a way of transporting you through time that gets you lost, in a good way!
Sara West is our heroine, I love her. She is equal parts intelligent, brave and capable.
Sara is the first person we meet and it's apparent straight away that she is a strong independent woman.
I'm not going to head into too much detail as you seriously need to climb aboard for this cracking story and discover the twists for yourself.
I'd recommend savouring The File snuggled up on the sofa with snacks (you know this is my favourite thing by now). It would also be a great choice for a book club or just a casual thing with friends!
