Toy Story 5 dubbed ‘worst in the series’ as new film divides critics

The film introduces a new character, Lilypad, a smart tablet voiced by Greta Lee, which prompts the established toy characters, including Woody and Buzz Lightyear, to work together to protect their owner, Bonnie, from the pervasive influence of electronic devices. While some critics, such as The Independent and The Guardian, awarded the film two stars, deeming it “the worst in the series” and “played out”, other publications like The Telegraph, Empire Magazine and The Times gave it four stars, commending its powerful themes and the expanded role of Jessie. Reviewers from The Telegraph and Empire Magazine praised the film's 'cautionary tale about online childhoods' and its 'welcome return to philosophical form', with The Times noting its potential appeal to political figures like Sir Keir Starmer due to its tech-focused narrative. Despite the mixed reviews and debates over the necessity of another sequel, Toy Story 5, which continues the franchise that originated in 1995, is scheduled for release in UK cinemas from June 19.
