remove her bikini top in a laughably gratuitous scene. Ultimately. just another big. brassy and pointless ‘actioner' from Hollywood mogul Joel Silver and hired- band director Sena. General release. Thrill Ride (PG) (Ben Stassen. US. 2001) A mix of computer graphics and live action. providing a scientific. but fun look at the history of rides. from their early origins in 17th century Russia to today's ride simulators. IMAX Theatre. Glasgow.

The Tigger Movie (L') 0000 (Jun Falkenstein. US. 2000) 77 mins. Identical in many ways to 1977‘s The Many Adventures Of Winnie The Pooh. this new yarn based on A.A. Milne‘s characters finds Pooh. Piglet. Tigger et al still living a charmed life of tea parties and afternoon naps. Only this time. the wee stripy fella‘s decided being one of a kind isn't quite as cool as he'd first thought and so a literal quest for the Tigger Family Tree ensues. A happy ending eventually makes its presence felt. because even Tigger is smart enough to recognise that with friends like Pooh. Piglet. R00 and Eeyore. who needs family? MacRobert Arts Centre. Stirling.

Toy Story 2 (11)”... (John Lasseter. US. 2000) Tom Hanks. Tim Allen. Joan Cusack. 95 mins. The new film expands on the original settings and themes: When Woody is not taken to Cowboy Camp by his owner Andy. he begins to question the meaning of his ‘lifc'. When he‘s subsequently stolen by a collector who plans to sell him to a Japanese toy museum Buzz and the gang travel across town to rescue their pal. The emotive range of the animated characters is extraordinary: they say that computer generated images will never replace the real thing. but Toy Story 2 makes you wonder. Selected release.

Toy Story (PG) oooo (John Lasseter. US. 1995) With the voices of Tom Hanks. Tim Allen. Don Rickles. 81 mins. 11 isn't just the state-of—the-art images that distinguish Disney's first
