First, the premise of it being a movie inside a movie was already confusing for a kids’ movie. Then, they decided to add relativity to an already confusing for some reason. And it wasn’t even scientifically accurate relativity! His trip took way too long for the people on the planet (even with time dilation), he was not going fast enough to trigger such an extreme amount of time dilation, going faster causing his trip to take longer for the people on the planet makes no sense, and you show more can’t go faster than light—and even if you did, you wouldn’t experience time dilation, you’d actually go backwards in time.
For the rest of the movie, it’s just felt incredibly generic and the characters were very forgettable. It basically rewrites canon, because in Toy Story 1 Buzz is portrayed as an over-the-top, confident space ranger and in Toy Story 2 Zurg is said to be Buzz’s father.

A Fun Meal toy swaps places with Buzz Lightyear.

One expects more from Pixar. It's cute and entertaining, but, for Pixar, it's only just a step above a DVD bonus feature.

A robot has bad luck repairing a spaceship.

Cute. It can't stand on its own without Wall-E, although they could have made it do so - and ended up with a much better cartoon - if they'd wanted to.
