Robin Williams stars in this surreal anti-war fantasy directed by Barry Levinson (RAIN MAN, DINER). Williams plays Leslie Zevo, the son of a fun-loving toymaker. Leslie and his...
more...sister, Alsatia (Joan Cusack,) grew up surrounded by their father's whimsical creations in the fantastic factory that he built. When their father dies, the children find that he has left his beloved business in the hands of his brother, a war-monger General (Michael Gambon), thinking that despite his children's love of the company, they don't have minds for business. Unable to disregard his military sensibilities, the General embarks on his own secret project in an effort to make toys that fulfill his confrontational nature, developing video games for children that actually control live weapons. Discovering their uncle's diabolical plan, Leslie and Alsatia set out to stop the general in his tracks and save their father's dream factory from manufacturing lethal weapons. Levinson's interesting social commentary also features rapper LL Cool J as the general's son, Patrick, a military man who specialises in camouflage; and Robin Wright as Leslie's love interest.

BEANIES
Review of Toys (DVD) by broksababe

Advantages: Loved By Children and Adults
Disadvantages: Not always sold at a fair price

...just love them!!, the collectable toys from TY warner. Beanies cover nearly every animal and some insects too, which makes them appealing to boys and girls and also us oldies too, as the bears can be collectors items as so few of them hit the shelves and also there are different bears for every country, which makes it more of a chalenge. I personally have all the Bears and some such as Britannia and Germania can change hands for as much as £50-£100 ... Read review

Beanie Babies - Quackers!
Review of Toys (DVD) by Sonatine

Advantages: big range, cute, cuddly, good quality, collectable
Disadvantages: pricey

Beanie Babies were at their height a year or so ago, everyone wanted them not only because they were cute but because of their collectability & value over a given period of time. But now I think the bubble may have burst and people have all moved on to the Pokemon fad. However, I still have one remaining Beanie, a little yellow duck called Quackers. It was given to me by someone very special and still very close to my heart all those months ... Read review

"Toys" For All Ages
Review of Toys (DVD) by Mom4more

Advantages: Great humor and non-stop adventure.
Disadvantages: You should not operate heavy machinery while watching this show!

...you experience the kind of toys that most of us wished we had. From dolls and stuffies, to war toys and videos games - it's all here! Have you ever seen a Sea Swine or Hurly Burly Helicopters or Maui Waui Fake Vomit or a Woozy Helmet? If you haven't you've got to see this show. It is a totally goofy and crazy flick that will have you laughing out loud. The music is enjoyable and the sets are amazing as you explore the life of toy makers in their finest ... Read review

an affordable hobby
Review of Toys (DVD) by ALLIECAT1

Advantages: affordable
Disadvantages: none

...thing I like about these toys is that they are affordable at £5.99 each or under from a primary seller, my little girl collects the beanie kids and gets one every 2 weeks with her pocket money. There are loads of websites which sell these and offer lots of news re the retirements etc most sites also have special offers which is always a bonus. As I said I've been collecting them now for 1 month and will continue to collect just as long as I'm ... Read review

BEANIE BABIES...Hooked
Review of Toys (DVD) by Eve

Advantages: Great Cute Collectible Toy
Disadvantages: Rare Ones Can Be Hard To Find

Well my love affair with BEANIE BABIES started in February 1998. I happened to be speaking to and American gentleman from Houston who asked me about BEANIE BABIES.. Beanie what !!! He then said that if I could find him BRITANNIA he would pay me £100 and PRINCESS £60. Well this sounded wonderful if not too good to be true. So I started to look for BRITANNIA and his friends simple I thought any toy shop will be selling stuffed bean bag toys. But oh ... Read review

Oh Dear....
Review of Toys (DVD) by JSpencer

Advantages: No obligation to watch it.
Disadvantages: It finishes.

...final scene, where all the toys go on a rampage, which I fancy the director visioned as being a classic ,are unmentionable. How did I sit through this on video? Answer - I was paralyzed with disbelief. Its a bad, bad, bad film. ... Read review

Toys - play with me!
Review of Toys (DVD) by peter_chrichard

Advantages: it's so bad
Disadvantages: it's un true

...struggle between good and evil toys is let down by a small, but crippling, flaw: the "good" toys aren't. Sure, the Zevo factory turned out no guns, no replicas of World War Two tanks, no violent arcade games. Their toys lacked all traces of violence - a virtue, but an entirely negative virtue. There wasn't anything GOOD about the oversized, sticky-coloured plastic, ugly, gimmicky trash that they sold to children, and there was no disguising this. ... Read review
