Toy Story 5
The beloved gang is back, this time helping 8-year-old Bonnie navigate friendships in a world where everyone is glued to screens after she receives a kid-friendly tablet called Lilypad. It is a warm, funny, and genuinely thoughtful Pixar adventure with a few emotionally heavy moments around rejection and being left out that may land harder on sensitive little ones.
Great for most kids 5 and up, with a little prep for very young or sensitive viewers around the online-bullying and friendship-rejection scenes.

Multiple Buzz Lightyear toys emerge from a lake in a scene reviewers describe as creepy-looking; brief but unexpected for young viewers.
Farm animals suddenly appear and startle Jessie and Bullseye with a jump-scare quality.
Several Buzz toy clones kidnap Woody and dangle him from a rope; he is then chewed by a pig toy. Action is slapstick but the danger is presented as real stakes.
