When Andy gets a Buzz Lightyear figure for his birthday, Woody, a toy cowboy who used to be the boy's favourite, becomes filled with jealousy; and so, when said space ranger is knocked out of the window (vaguely accidentally), Woody is ostracised by his fellow toys, who suspect him of foul play, and must stage a daring rescue in order to win back their trust, in Lasseter’s inventive, funny, and slickly animated film, which should appeal as much to adults as to children.
