At the Liberty:"Lightyear"

DAYTON—Lightyear is the definitive origin story of Buzz Lightyear—the hero who inspired the toy (in Toy Story) - follows the legendary Space Ranger on an intergalactic adventure.

The Rotten Tomatoes website describes this movie as: “Legendary space ranger Buzz Lightyear embarks on an intergalactic adventure alongside ambitious recruits Izzy, Mo, Darby, and his robot companion, Sox. As this motley crew tackles their toughest mission yet, they must learn to work together as a team to escape the evil Zurg and his dutiful robot army that is never far behind.”

This movie is rated 75% and 85% favorable by Rotten Tomatoes critics and audiences, respectively. The audience consensus is “Even if it doesn’t quite measure up to Toy Story, Lightyear offers an entertaining -- although somewhat complicated -- origin story for the beloved title character”. It is rated PG for action/peril, and it has a runtime of 105 minutes.
