Search: Starring Tim Allen

Disney's predictable attempt to impose a narrative and to anthropomorphise the animals leads to some stodgy story-telling.

Have you been naughty or nice this year? Be careful - if you end up on the bad side, Santa may leave Christmas With The Kranks in your stocking.

The film should be hilarious, but isn't.

Both gripping morality tale and satisfying thriller.

The film might have drowned in saccharine, but doesn't, despite the non-unionised, happy-go-lucky elves.

No one in their right mind could read this script and find it worthy of their talents.

True believers in Father Christmas should avoid this film like the plague.

The 3-D is subtly done... There are no obvious changes to the picture, which is to Disney's credit.

Toy Story may be the first computer generated full-length feature, but it is also as close to perfection as it is possible to be.

Technically, imaginatively, emotionally, John Lasseter's sequel matches the original.

A dazzlingly confident and magical picture.

The simple search and rescue plot is more than adequate an adventure in which to indulge the antics of our original toys, and allows space to throw in a few choice newcomers.

Wild Hogs reflects Hollywood's attitude towards entertainment, without understanding that star names and a sound-bit scenario requires writers who know about comedy to make the thing fly.
