Jen and Tim grit their teeth through Barry Levinson's oppressively whimsical passion project that literally no one liked, Toys. Also, take a drink every time we use a variant of the word "whimsy," but please drink responsibly!


See the (in)famous Toys teaser trailer on YouTube.


Roger Ebert penned a more measured analysis of the film back in 1992:

There's a curious residue of dissatisfaction after "Toys" is over. It opened so well and promised so much that we're confused: Is that all there is?


Listen to Tim's favorite song from the movie, "Happy Workers" sung by Tori Amos.
