The film features the voice talents of Tom Hanks, Tim Allen, Joan Cusack, Michael Keaton and, appropriately enough, Don Rickles lending his voice to Mr. Potato Head.

Rolling Stone film critic Peter Travers wrote, "'Toy Story 3,' decked out in nifty, non-showy 3-D, is a joy to behold. It hits every button from laughter to tears and lifts you up on waves of visual dazzlement. And you don't need to take a kid along to appreciate it. Jeez, people, we were all kids once. And the way the Pixar wizards re-create a sense of childhood wonder is damn near genius."

The film garnered Academy Awards in 2011 for Best Animated Feature and for Original Song for Randy Newman’s "We Belong Together." It grossed more than $414 million at the box office.
