Magnificent, super fantastic, rich, wonderful, full, stop-what-your-doing-and-go-see-it appeal.

Where can I start? Voices? Terrific. How about visuals and art direction? Superb. Action? Comedy? Fun? Yes. Yes. Yes. Okay, then screenplay and story line? Better than the original "Toy Story." A mere ounce of this carefully refined script could fuel a rocketship to infinity and beyond!

What are you doing this weekend? Don't worry about that new opera in town, take a pass on the blues band at the local bar, blow off the Sunday night game, duck out of your best buddy's big bash -- go see this film. Kids or no kids, date or no date, heck -- go alone!

Oh, so you didn't see "Toy Story" (a mishap easily corrected). Relax, take the week to rent it. Go see "Toy Story 2" next week or the one following -- don't worry, it won't be blasting off the screen anytime too soon. This is a sequel after all, although it could still be enjoyed as a stand alone, knowledge of the pre-story can only make this excellent production that much more endearing.

And what a production it is! When 100% of the visual imagery is computer generated, the director has millisecond control over ever edit, every cut, every action sequence -- director John Lasseter takes full advantage. A stream of star-burst colors blend animated characters with a kaleidoscopic of voices, rock solid scripting and pinpoint direction. It's fun, uproarious and plainly a great treat you shouldn't deny yourself. Forget the kids, take two hours and go see it!
