Toy Story 4

Right now you can watch Toy Story 4 in Australia on Disney Plus, and in the US on Disney Plus and fuboTV — and it is funnier than its reputation suggests. The length is exactly right for the story it is telling — nothing rushed, nothing dragged out. An 8/10 rating says what the writing already makes obvious: this one works. Tom Hanks is the obvious draw, but the whole ensemble earns its laughs. Put it on tonight on Disney Plus and see for yourself.

Part of the current wave of titles people are actually watching, Toy Story 4 earns its spot. Toy Story 4 does what great comedies rarely manage — it is actually funny, consistently, across the whole run. Woody has always been confident about his place in the world, devoted to taking care of his kid—whether that's Andy or Bonnie. But after Bonnie creates a reluctant new toy called "Forky", a road trip adventure alongside old and new friends challenges everything Woody believes about loyalty, purpose, and what it truly means to be a toy. Between them, Tom Hanks and Tim Allen carry the comedy without ever forcing it. It hit screens in 2019. The timing in Toy Story 4 is precise enough that even the throwaway lines land on a second watch. The consistency throughout is what elevates it — not every moment is the best, but none of them are a reason to stop watching.

Comedy fans looking for a reliably funny watch will find it in Toy Story 4. It does not lean on comparisons to make its case. Short enough to finish in one sitting, substantial enough to feel satisfying. Tom Hanks is funny in a way that holds up on rewatch. Put it on when you need something guaranteed to land.
