Individual Commentary:

Wesley Lovell (WL): I’m intrigued, though the slow degradation of the Pixar brand gives me a bit of trepidation.
Peter J. Patrick (PP): This Toy Story prequel doesn’t do anything for me.
Thomas LaTourette (TL): I doubt it will be as good as the Toy Story films, but it should be a fun Pixar piece even if it not exemplary.

Individual Commentary:

Wesley Lovell (WL): Generic teen romantic drama with nothing to recommend it.
Peter J. Patrick (PP): Typical romantic drama doesn’t seem to offer anything new.
Thomas LaTourette (TL): It looks perfectly fine, but I doubt it will be any better than any other teen romance.

Individual Commentary:

Wesley Lovell (WL): Emma Thompson is a terrific comedienne. We’ll see if she can carry off this sexually-charged comedy.
Peter J. Patrick (PP): Off-beat comedy about an older woman and a male prostitute might have some merit.
Thomas LaTourette (TL): Emma Thompson has not had a lot of luck with Oscar nominations in the last 25 years,but this comedy might change that. The trailer did have me laughing.
