Pixar’s first sequel is another search-and-rescue story. But it’s also a wry commentary on the collectibles craze, and it’s the first hint of the deep poignance and sorrow built into the "Toy Story" universe, with the characters coming to understand the loneliness of toys that aren’t played with, a fate that awaits them all. There’s still plenty of comedy in the antics of Buzz, Woody, and the rest, but this is a more mature film than the initial "Toy Story."
