4/5

There is nothing short of a giddy delight in watching the fine folks who founded PIXAR living out their dreams in ways much larger than even they could ever have imagined

The Pixar Story should be required viewing for film school students as it shows what following through and persevering through hardships can get you.

Iwerks may not have the gumption to pop open Pixar's hood and explore the mechanics, but she's created something warmly nostalgic and uplifting instead.

Further research would contribute few added resources but this documentary successfully, wholesomely goes over Pixar's celebrative legacy while elaborating it in a bigger spotlight at the crafted bookends that expands on the impacts they had from and to the film industry to boost up the fascination. (A-) (Full review TBD)

These men only are showing the good side of this story because they started early on and are being paid an amazing amount of money. Disney is a disgusting company that takes billions and gives nothing back. Its suppose to be about children. Walt would be disgusted!
