Toy Story 5’s runtime has been confirmed, with the sequel set to be the longest movie in the series. The new film is finally due out in cinemas next week, reuniting Buzz, Woody, Jessie and the gang.<\/p>\n

The BBFC<\/a> has now revealed how long it will run for, with the movie lasting 102 minutes \u2013 putting it ahead of previous record-holder Toy Story 3’s 98 minutes.<\/p>\n

Behind that is Toy Story 4 at 96 minutes, Toy Story 2 at 89 minutes, and Toy Story at 81 minutes. It is also the first PG-rated film in the series since the first one.<\/p>\n

Toy Story 5 sees the toys come up against modern technology, as they compete with tablet Lilypad (Greta Lee) for eight-year-old Bonnie’s attention.<\/p>\n

While official reviews are not out just yet, the early reactions have been overwhelmingly positive<\/a>, critic Jazz Tangcay suggesting the fifth movie is “magical and pure perfection”.<\/p>\n

Collider’s Meredith Loftus added that it was “up there with Toy Story 2 & 3”, and had a “deeply profound” story to tell.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, star Tom Hanks has teased that Toy Story 5 contains one of the franchise’s “most heartbreaking scenes”<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“These movies, they end up speaking [to] and puts in words [and] stuff that everybody is thinking anyway,” he told The Hollywood Reporter<\/a>, revealing the scene sees a young girl have her “feelings hurt” by “what other people are texting about her”.<\/p>\n

“She doesn’t understand why,” he added. “She doesn’t know what she did wrong, but it hurts, and that is a very prescient thing to have in a motion picture today about little kids and toys.”<\/p>\n

Elsewhere, Taylor Swift has released a brand new song<\/a> for the film’s soundtrack called ‘I Knew It, I Knew You’.<\/p>\n

Toy Story 5 is released in cinemas on 19 June.<\/p>\n
