Lightyear
Overview
Lightyear is a 2022 computer-animated science fiction action film produced by Pixar Animation Studios, a spin-off of the Toy Story franchise. The film is not about the toy, Buzz Lightyear. It is about the human astronaut who inspired the toy. The film stars Chris Evans as the voice of Buzz Lightyear, a young, cocky, and ambitious Space Ranger. He gets stranded on a hostile planet with his crew. The film is a fun, action-packed, and visually stunning sci-fi adventure. It was a critical and commercial disappointment, earning over $226 million on a $200 million budget. The film was praised for its animation and its voice cast, but criticized for its weak plot and its confusing connection to Toy Story. The film explores themes of friendship, sacrifice, and the meaning of heroism. The film is a must-see for fans of Pixar and for anyone who loves a good space adventure.
