Toy Story 5 Made a Skeptic Eat His Words Again

Going into a fifth Toy Story movie with low expectations turns out to be a losing bet, and movie critic Steve Stebbing explains why this one earns its place in the franchise on emotional weight alone. The story leans into screens replacing physical toys in kids' imaginations, and a surprising side plot involving a lost shipment of action figures steals just as much attention as Buzz and Woody do this time around. From there the picks turn darker, with a brooding retelling of Robin Hood's final days and a haunting Australian film about conversion therapy gone supernatural, both worth knowing before walking into a theatre expecting something lighter. The conversation shifts into streaming territory next, covering a deceased-sister voicemail romance on Netflix, a post-apocalyptic survival film, and a noir-soaked second season starring Colin Farrell that Steve calls the strongest pick of the week by a wide margin. Five very different recommendations, one weekend, and Steve makes the case for each. **Movies in Theatres** Toy Story 5 surprises with real emotional depth, while The Death of Robin Hood and the Australian indie Leviticus take the weekend in a far heavier direction than expected. **What to Stream** From a voicemail-based Netflix romance to a post-apocalyptic Prime Video survival story to Colin Farrell's standout return in Sugar Season 2, Steve ranks the strongest watch of the week.
