Bad Reviewers miss the point [Posted on 2006-07-24]
This is supposed to be the cartoon that the Action Figure in the movie is derived from. These complaints about "No Computer Animation" and no "Depth" is missing the point of the show. It is a fun show for kids and adults. I am a huge fan of Pixar and the Toy Story series, even more so, of Buzz Lightyear himself. I Love this movie and I Love the animated series (with great voice acting, including the always hilarious Patrick Warburton). Highly recommended from this Amazonian.

I've found that it's often dangerous to over-analyze the simple joys of childhood -- ice cream, running in the park, Saturday morning cartoons. And yet here on Amazon, Buzz Lightyear has somehow morphed into a polarizing figure, on par with the likes of Barry Bonds and Ronald Reagan.

Both of my boys were fully hooked by the dazzling "Toy Story" movies -- and, to be fair, most of us parents were big fans as well. So what can we make of "Buzz Lightyear of Star Command: The Adventure Begins"?

If your kids are Buzz devotees -- my sons have all but pushed for matching Star Command tattoos -- this movie is a good bit of fun. The stunning computer animation of the previous movies are missing, save for an early intro scene. Buzz's beloved three-dimensional movie pals are gone; what we have here is Buzz the cartoon hero.

Brace yourself for plenty of laser blasts, spaceship chases and, well, cartoonish showdowns between Buzz, Emperor Zurg and cast of new Buzz buddies. The movie went over well with the boys, who at 3 and 1 can somehow cope without the Woody and all of the computer animations. The question is -- can we?

Good but wish there was more [Posted on 2007-10-25]
We love this DVD the only thing is there should be more episodes on it! My son was really bummed.

kids might like the action,though it is pretty tame [Posted on 2008-03-02]
i wasn't too impressed with this animated spin off of the Toy Story
films.i just expected better.the story was pretty weak,but at least
there were a few amusing moments.i found it too preachy myself.i like
the message it has,about friendship and teamwork,but i just thought it
was a bit too unsubtle.kids might like it,considering there was a fair
amount of action.there's nothing inappropriate that i saw,so it's
probably suitable for most ages.in fact,the movie is pretty tame,with
pretty much no violence.anyway,this isn't horrible by any means,it just
isn't anything special.for me,Buzz Lightyear of Star Command:The
Adventure Begins is a 2/5

How about a DVD of the TV EPISODES??? [Posted on 2008-05-21]
The movie was fine but long for the younger kids. When will Disney come out with the TV EPISODES on DVD??? They are only 30 minutes in length & my son loves them. We would be first in line to buy it. We are SOOOOOO disappointed that Disney has taken the re-runs of Buzz cartoons off the air! Please bring them back!
