10 Amazing Movies Under 90 Minutes Long

2. Toy Story

Toy Story
Disney/Pixar

Runtime: 81 minutes

It's amazing to think there was a time when Toy Story was considered a risk, because looking at the movie now, it's such an important part of pop-culture DNA and a turning point in animation history that it seems foolish to have ever doubted it.

You all know the story - Andy's collection of toys comes to life when he's not around, but their tranquil existence is disrupted when a shiny new space ranger enters the fray. The movie's animation does look a little dated (yet still charming), but that emotional, funny, effortlessly relatable story of jealousy and friendship hasn't aged a day.

It really is impossible to not enjoy Toy Story. It doesn't outstay its welcome, it's energetic, superbly voice-acted, and contains jokes for children and adults alike. Let's hope the upcoming Toy Story 4 can live up to the franchise's flawless winning streak.
