Vita da lampada

The short purports to explain Bo's journey from leaving Molly (before Toy Story 3) until she re-appeared in Toy Story 4. None of the material is compelling and like a lot of the deleted scenes shorts it has a perfunctory vibe. Worse as far as I can tell how Bo's arm got broken was never explained. This means the short doesn't even do what it set out to do.

This is an exciting short film! I finally got my chance to see what happened to Bo Peep! It was sad seeing her disregarded, donated so many times and then finally watched how she began being the athletic, survivalist Bo Peep! Definitely another great Toy Story film! It absolutely deserves it's spot light with the other Toy Story films, shorts, and the TV Specials!!!

Baby Lamp is such a beautiful right for kids. In the kid's room, parents put a baby lamp and light the room on.

It's a companion piece to Toy Story 4. Bo Peep and her sheep are at the carnival with Woody and Giggle McDimples. She recounts her life on the lamp and how she got to the playground. She starts as figures on a lamp and it's a long winding road to the second hand store.

This is sweet although a bit unnecessary. I kept expecting a big surprise reveal or a fun twist. It never really comes. I know that it's only a short, but a big idea would put this over the top. Tom Hanks is not here, but they do bring out his brother. It looks great especially with the carnival. This is a nice visit with a couple of friends.

Lamp Life (3 out of 5 stars).

Lamp Life is a cute short animation film focusing on what happened to Bo when she was absent from Toy Story 3 until reuniting with Woody in the fourth film. The animation is colorful and wonderful. It is cute and fun for the kids. The story was left dull with Bo's storyline. Really making this short film feeling like an extra add on that is not needed.
