After a string of duds (by Pixar standards anyway) following the longest consecutive smash hit run maybe ever in motion pictures, this movie is back in line with the proven genius of the Pixar Brain Trust. However, it is massively unjustlyAfter a string of duds (by Pixar standards anyway) following the longest consecutive smash hit run maybe ever in motion pictures, this movie is back in line with the proven genius of the Pixar Brain Trust. However, it is massively unjustly over-rated yet again by the idiot critics who sense any kind of intellectual endeavor that strives to entertain and exert high brow thought as an automatic rubber stamp highest rating, best review they can generate. Again, this is because they are all sheep who cannot make movies themselves and they love to champion ones that put their values on display and also challenge them as viewers since all they do is watch movies and it gets boring, especially with all the garbage.
To put this in perspective for the rest of us: While this movie is extremely clever and very sharp, also with vivid bright colors I personally loved, it is not a great movie on the level of past Pixar greats such as "Finding Nemo", "Ratatouille", or "Toy Story 3" to name some of the best in my book. It doesn't have the all important emotional impact in a story that is by its nature very complicated, too complicated especially for kids.… Expand

It felt a little long, and I was a little bored now and then. I saw it in a theater full of kids and there was some restlessness, which doesn't happen for the best Pixar films. It isn't a bad film, but it certainly isn't as funny as some of Pixar's films. It mostly deals with a little girl's depression about moving to a new city with her family. In fact, I only remember one laugh out loud part, where we get a glimpse into a boy teenager's mind when he tries to talk to a girl. I would rank this one somewhere in the middle of all the Pixar films, which means it's still way above average compared to most animated features, but not a classic.… Expand

The only funny part was from the trailer so everyone had already seen it. It wasn't really directed towards a certain age group. It was to deep and not fun enough for kids, and to strange for teens and adults. The idea was good but the movie just felt like a stretched out ten minute Pixar short. Overall it was alright, but had the potential to be a great, fun family movie.… Expand

From start to finish, Inside Out is a lot of fun. It's got an all-star cast, which makes it less surprising that the movie is SO good. The story is relatable to everyone, it was done in a way to both shed light and make light of just growing up.

To make a shallow comparison,Inside Out is arguably the best Pixar movie since Toy Story 3; it brings a refreshing look that reminds us just what type of studio Pixar is. I was actually surprised by how mature some parts of this movie were. To make a shallow comparison, Inside Out is like Adventure Time in that it can awaken that childlike wonder and joy that you might lose in your daily life, while still making you mull over incredibly deep concepts. I think this is a movie that both adults and kids can watch, that it doesn't just cater to the whims of children, but rather respects, in a very much Toy Story way, how a child's view of the movie might develop as they grow up.

As we've come to expect from Pixar, this movie is visually stunning. The close-up shots really capture emotion well in an animated film. The story takes you inside the head of a pre-adolescent girl, Riley, and personifies her emotions in a movie that is truly a breath of fresh air. Inside Out reminds me of the Pixar I knew as a kid, the studio that had amazing, original ideas and presented complex issues and a beautiful way. We come into a very difficult stage in Riley's life, and we are reminded just how easily your world can fall apart when you are so young. Inside Out really shows you the stress we all endured at that point in our lives, how youth can seem so fleeting and that at times it may seem like we've forgotten what joy was.

Lastly, this movie made me cry. While not exactly the "tear duct sledgehammer" that Up was, Riley's character is strikingly relatable, which makes the movie hit deep in its own way. I rarely give movies a perfect score anymore. I rate movies on a adjectival system, meaning each number 1 through 10 has an adjective associated with it; a 5 is mediocre, a 6 is okay, a 7 is good, you get the idea. To me, a 10 is a masterpiece, a movie that beautifully does what it set out to do; while a 10 may not be perfect, it will definitely be remembered and looked to as a model. To me, Inside Out fits this description. I would recommend this movie to anyone who still has a little kid inside of them.… Expand

The problems that both my wife I felt were that this movie never had a real message or theme. All the great Pixar movies had a theme and message that could be summed up in a single sentence. Unfortunately Inside Out doesn't. Amy Pohler as Joy is the exact same character she was on Parks and Req. Sadness was so annoying that I felt like anger early on.

I mean the whole theme of the movie is that a memory can be both joy and sorrow. Yawn. Finally, the relationship of the parents to the girl is very lacking. The parents "need" her to be supportive of the move and problems. She must show happiness and be supportive. Then in the end the parents finally realize that maybe the kid was sad about the move. Are parents that stupid?

There were some great parts. Loved showing other people's minds and their control centers. Too bad the movie couldn't have focused on this instead of the story it picked.… Expand

Phyllis Smith, Bill Hader, Lewis Black, and Mindy Kaling as Sadness, Fear, Anger, and Disgust respectively were all perfectly cast as well. The overall story is also highly imaginative, unique, and completely entertaining from start to finish!

I may only be young, but even elements of the story I couldn't relate to at all. Especially since I have moved and lived in America. It had moments of being too juvenile and it may have been for a younger audience, but I'm only 14 and I know that most teens will have gone to see this movie, also parents. As for the characters, I found Joy and Sadness to annoying. At times I wanted to claw my face out because sadness was borderline depressed and joy just needed to understand that you can't have the spotlight. It should have explored the islands more, which doesn't actually count as a spoiler cause it is featured in the trailer. Overall I just found it disappointing, especially for a Disney movie. It is different, with a really arty idea, just possibly not executed to he best ability I know Disney can do.… Expand

'Inside Out' is the 15th feature from Pixar Animation Studios, and is directed by Pete Docter who also directed 'Monsters Inc' (2001) and the Oscar winning 'Up' (2009).

'Inside Out' focuses inside the head of a little girl named Riley,'Inside Out' is the 15th feature from Pixar Animation Studios, and is directed by Pete Docter who also directed 'Monsters Inc' (2001) and the Oscar winning 'Up' (2009).

'Inside Out' focuses inside the head of a little girl named Riley, inside we meet the "little voices" and they are five different emotions. You have Joy (Amy Poehler), Sadness (Phyllis Smith), Fear (Bill Hader), Anger (Lewis Black) and Disgust (Mindy Kaling). They all control how Riley should feel and decide when it's an appropriate time for her to feel that emotion.

Joy is the main emotion here, she is always concerned for Riley and wants her to have a good day, every day. The way Joy feels connected to Riley reminds me of the way Woody feels connected to Andy in the "Toy Story" franchise. She always wants the best for her, and when Riley feels something, Joy feels it too.

'Inside Out' is filled with some beautiful and colorful animation, a heart-wrenching story and some sympathetic characters. It's one of the best Pixar films since 'Toy Story 3' (2010). Whereas 'Cars 2' (2011), 'Brave' (2012) and 'Monsters University' (2013) failed to live up to expectations.

There isn't a lot of comedy in this movie which can be worrying if you are a parent or guardian that's planning on taking your children off to a trip to the cinema. They would probably find 'Minions' (2015) more cheerful and silly, 'Inside Out' is mostly for adults to enjoy, there is nothing wrong with that, but children will no doubt find this movie very distressing.

Pixar Animation Studios is very good at making their films enjoyable for adults, in that when you watch films like 'Toy Story' (1995), that film basically says "We are all connected to our toys, remember when you were a child and had that one special toy?", or 'Monsters Inc' (2001) would say "When we were all kids, we all had those dreams of monsters creeping up in our bedrooms". Pixar is good at tapping into an adult's childhood.

But I don't want to sound too negative to this movie, maybe kids will enjoy it, all I am saying is, 'Inside Out' is in many ways a classic. A film to be remembered in years to come, I could see sequels and spin-offs based on this movie alone. It's definitely an Oscar winner for "Best Animated Feature", it is touching, inventive and just a gorgeous looking movie.… Expand

Inside Out is definitely among the upper echelon of great Pixar films. There is sequel potential, but I honestly would love it if they would leave this one to stand alone. But that is not Pixar's way usually. One can hope, though.

A departure from many Pixar offerings is there is no true villain. The tension is all created by the situations created within the fabric of the plot. And there are plenty of tense moments, along with several heartfelt moments that will pull tears from some viewers. As with nearly all Pixar movies, there is plenty here to keep younger audiences entertained while providing depth and emotion for the adult viewers, especially anyone who is a parent.… Expand

The middle part is long and painful, with too few of the hilarious moments promised in the trailer. Parents as well as tweens and teens may find it emotionally wrenching.

This is really cute film. The story is engaging. The voice acting is strong. The animation is great. This is not the first story idea where aspects of a person were broken down. But it is the best one yet.

This movie was OK, but none of my family felt it was even remotely close to being one of Pixar's best. The endless high praise I don't get. Not a bad movie by any means, simply ok.

This film pushed so many of my buttons on a personal level that it's belittling to rank it with the common-tongue descriptor of 'masterpiece'. Inside Out . . . moved me deeply . . . beyond examination. I . . . didn't merely cry during this film, though you could say that the three or four times when I sniffled and my eyes welled up with **** that I was crying then. That was when I was crying. However, I also wept, no, I SOBBED. I profusely balled by eyes out like a big weenie. And it was one of the most cathartic experiences of my life. Never before has a work of cinema emitted such wracking waves of pure, touching storytelling that conveys so much universal, human understanding. Just because I cried (ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS), I wouldn't label this a melancholic, downer of a movie. It finds the perfect balance of euphoric, jubilant happiness to offset the brewing, incessant sadness that comes with every moment of joy. It is the sad realization that the feeling of elation is fleet. It won't last. As much as we want to reminisce and relive our memories from early youth, the purest concentration of feeling we have, we grow older and are taken out of the comfort of the world we've become used to. Moving, losing friends, growing out of childish things like imaginary friends (Oh, Bing Bong, WHHYYYYY??!!), becoming distanced from your family and becoming more independent, all these things are essential to the unending departing nature of life. I think goodbyes are truly the most traumatic loss we can experience. Inside Out illustrates that visually in a way that is unprecedentedly effective and hard-hitting. It is also brilliantly scripted, hilarious, GORGEOUSLY ANIMATED, ingeniously concepted and executed with unwavering skill and focus.

This may be the best animated film I've ever seen. Don't miss the opportunity to see this MULTIPLE TIMES in theaters.… Expand

It has challenged me to think about how I parent my daughters and what I teach them about their feelings and emotions. And it's also prompted me to think about my own challenges in balancing joy, sadness, anger, and fear. It's a wonderful movie for both kids and adults. Best film I've seen all year, by far.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This movie was outstanding. First off, let's just say that this movie is very unique. Featuring all the feelings was very creative of Pixar, and the crux of the whole film. Next, because they featured the emotions within Riley's mind, the development was unusually heavy and deep. You know why they brag that this movie is made by the guys who made up? Because the Up guys really put their hearts into it. That 10 minute relationship between Carl and his wife? Here, it's turned into a full-feature child-parents relationship, but also with Riley and her relationship with the new area she moves to.

Of course, uniqueness and development are only the tip of the ice berg. The movie is tension-filled, leaving me on my edge of my seat, tearing my hair out, yelling: "Nooooo! NOOOOOOOO!!!" (Especially near the climax scene where the emotions narrowly don't make it!) The fact that it's realistic and the lands Joy and Sadness travel to fall down one-by-one, showing that Riley is losing her core self and losing who she truly is--becoming a robot, becoming out of touch with her emotions--oh dang; that's truly suspenseful and horrifying! And shall I mention (BIG spoiler--You are warned here and now--BIG spoiler)-- Bing Bong sacrifices himself in order to make Riley happy--but it's not just about Joy. No; it's not about Joy leading onwards, optimistic no matter what. It shows that people have duality of emotions. It's realistic- - and the multitude of emotions, instead of simply one emotion (or no emotion at all in the case of the movie's crucial pinpoint), there are a load of emotions within the movie.

Obviously, this movie is not just deep and touching. Let us end this review on a lighter note--this movie has excellent comedy as well. The main comical subject is the aforementioned Bing Bong 9in my opinion), which makes his death ever so-more heart-wrenching. But other than that, the humor is quite intelligent. The helicopter guy, Angry's flame, goofball land, they all add a good amount of laughs and heart-warming moments to this film. So in conclusion, this movie is amazing. It's one of pixar's best, if not the best-- failing only second arguably to the Toy Story series. (And even that is arguable). If you haven't watched it, you definitely should. It has made it into the top ten of my best movies ever watched. :D… Expand

The Pixar gimmick is that her emotions are run by 5 characters in her mental "Headquarters:" Joy (Amy Poehler), Fear (Bill Hader), Anger (Lewis Black), Disgust (Mindy Kaling) and Sadness (Phyllis Smith). This group and their rapid-fire reactions drive the movie and the comedy. When things get bleak, the trip turns peculiar and the story loses steam. The visuals are colorful, but not as dazzling as we've come to expect from Pixar. This creative slant on growing up and the complexity of feelings is an ambitious subject. While it's energetic, fun and sweet, it's emotional impact failed to connect with me. NOTE: Stay thru the early credits to enjoy the cleverest moments in the film.… Expand

Funny? Yes! Charming, oh yes! Too long? Indeed! Despite mixing an outdated psychology of emotions with contemporary concepts of mind, the biggest fault of Inside Out is overestimating its story as worth a full-length feature film. Half of the film is a round-around journey of the two main characters trying to return (without success) to their headquarters. After the fourth attempt, my daughter was like, “will the rest of the movie be like this?” When the plot solves, you feel relief it just ended, but don’t care anymore.… Expand

Dose anyone remember that TV show back in the 90's called Herman's Head, no? well your going to think this is a original story but really it's ripping off a story line that already exist.

The story to Inside Out is about a girl calledDose anyone remember that TV show back in the 90's called Herman's Head, no? well your going to think this is a original story but really it's ripping off a story line that already exist.

The story to Inside Out is about a girl called Riley who is just like any typical young girl - dealing with the ups and downs of life - but on the inside, things are much different. When her father gets a new job in San Francisco and moves the family from the Midwest to the West Coast, "Headquarters" the place in Riley's mind that contains her emotions, goes into overdrive. Joy, Fear, Sadness, Anger, Disgust - each one plays a role - and with a new city, home and school - there is going to be some major conflict.

"The most original animated ever made".

"It's both funny, original and better than Up".

"Inside Out is Pixar's original film yet".

NO...

Everybody is going nuts over this movie calling it as "A masterpiece", and "One of the best animated films of all time". Now since I did like this movie as I do think this is a solid Pixar film, but I wouldn't go that far to call it a flawless masterpiece as people are calling it as the movie does have flaws. I feel like this is going to be one of those movies were people get really hyped over at the first like everybody is giving it the same rating and giving it the same love as everybody else, and if you say anything bad about it or you pick out a flaw in the movie people will rip you a part, but after a while when the hype dies down that's when it's okay to say that it's sucks or you didn't like it because everybody is coming out saying they think different of it. This happened before with movies that got hyped to death such as: Toy Story 3, Frozen, Gravity, The Avengers 1&2 and Avatar. But who's this movie may still get love after a while and it may seem like I'm hating on this movie which I'm trying not to come off like that as I think this is a good movie, but to me I like stepping out of the box and not try to join the hype as some people doing as I think a lot of people block out negative or any problems when they watch a movie just because A: They were looking forward to it or B: They wanted the next big thing. To those who are not convince that I don't hate this movie let me drill this in your head, I like this movie, I don't hate it. It's better than Cars 1&2 and Brave. But to me it's not a original masterpiece even when this story has been use already, but still this is a good movie. Okay I got that out there.

Let's talk about the positive's: The animation in this movie is so beautiful and really colorful and that colorfulness really suited the tone perfectly giving it a kid colorful welcoming feel to it. I can already see this movie is going to win best animated movie at the Oscars that's how good the animation in this movie. Pixar never disappoints when it comes to animation to they movies, even the ones I didn't like so much at least I can look at the visual's and be amazed of the detail put into it. And in this movie once again Pixar impress me with the animation.

The movie towards the end which I'm not spoiling it but I think everybody who's seen the movie or even heard someone talk about it as brought up that the movie does have a sad scene that made everybody cried like little babies just like me. Damn you Pixar for making me cry, you always play with my emotions when it comes to watching your movies. But good job through for making me feel something for this movie as I will go into that later.

This is a good kids movie and even the adults will enjoy it because most adults like most Pixar films and when it comes to emotional scenes it get's to them. This may be everybody's new favorite of all time or the year, but as I said before that feels like I said it about 100 times already, I like the movie, it's enjoyable, but I think it's time to talk about the flaws and one of those flaws is about the story and some of the characters.

The problems: Every critic and every person as brought up that the story is original and Pixar is back at it's best, but hold on a minute as this story been done before? The concept has been done before but in different ways, but even when it's a little bit different it still feels the same. I know some people may not seen Herman's Head or any TV special's that's focusing on what your emotions are what it dose in your head and them as character's. This doesn't really make the movie bad and it doesn't mean you can't enjoy it, but I think you should take some consideration before praising a movie and calling it original even through it's not. Can you handle the truth?

The other thing that isn't original is the character's, now they not badly written character's or anything like that, to be honest I think they were enjoyable to watch on screen but just like what I said about the story the character's didn't feel anything new and it feels like they been taken off by other characters from cartoon's, TV shows and other animated movies. It's all for the new original merchandise that will sell like mad after everybody sees the movie. That's how business works in Pixar, they just want loads of money that's what it's all about. Now if you think I'm a dick for saying that about Pixar then well your going to hate me even more after I bring up the pointless squeal's they came release that nobody wanted but they made it anywhere because all of the merchandise. Remember Cars, you remember when people didn't really like it and then Pixar did Cars 2, and that's because of the box office hit it was and the amount of merchandise was sold. Same with the other Pixar films. I just can't stand it when these film producers people choose money over art, it's just a big insult to cinema, and yeah it's a great way to get money off from people and all this money thing I told you about many not bother you as you just want a good movie and yeah Pixar as made great movie I mean one of my favorite movies from Pixar was Toy Story and Up. But I don't think Pixar is back as they next movies are just squeal's that we as a audience never asked for just because it's all about the f**king money.

These a scene in this movie where Riley plays hockey and she's been doing it for a while now, but out of nowhere she forget's how to play and no she didn't get disinterested or unmotivated, she literally forget's how to play hockey and she's already on the ice as the game just started. She didn't lose her desire to play, she just forget's. What really would have made this movie original if the movie was just about her emotions play with her depression affect's a person, now that will show that Pixar as the balls to do that and take a step forward and break new grounds by doing that, I mean this is about her emotions and she is going through tough times. But instead the movie focus on these character's in her head that are just a copy and cut out of other character's in past movies, TV shows and cartoon's. I know it's a kids movie and they don't to make it too depressing even when it kind of is towards the end but what's the point making a movie about somebody's emotions while that person as I said before is going through tough times. Come on at least some movies have the balls to do that and not just go "Oh wait a minute we shouldn't step back a bit".

I was never bored and it's a good time watch. If you loved the movie then good for you, if you liked the movie I'm with you on that one. To those who hated the movie it's okay, you don't have to like every movie that people like and praising. Be different, be unique. As for me I will recommend it to people who love animation or just movies itself, as Inside Out is a good movie.… Expand

In Inside Out , the life of anAfter a slightly disappointing run for Pixar in the last few years with movies like Monsters University and Cars 2, the power house of animation gives us their most thematically complex film since Wall-E. In Inside Out , the life of an eleven-year old girl named Riley is shown to be controlled by five voices inside her head: Joy, Sadness, Disgust, Fear, and Anger. They control her emotions and affect her memories, but Riley's life is thrown out of control when she moves to San Francisco. Her core memories, the most important ones, are thrown out of the control center as well as Joy and Sadness, so they have to journey back to put Riley's life back on track. The plot itself doesn't contain any big twists or even a villain. It's a seemingly simple tale with huge ambition. Showing what's going on in someone's head is a difficult feat, but Pixar achieves this in such a creative and original way. The ideas presented in Inside Out might fly over younger kids' heads, as there are some rather complex themes here: you can't be happy without experiencing sadness or anger or disgust or fear. They are natural parts of life. The film even deals with depression, identity, and self-worth. Inside Out is undeniably the most enjoyable, hilarious, and entertaining film that incorporates such heavy themes. It's certainly not a movie you will ever forget.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Pixar is unarguably one of the premiere animation studios around, yet everything since Toy Story 3 has been rather mediocre. I had almost lost hope in the studio at all. I mean, I grew up with Pixar – I remember seeing masterpieces like Finding Nemo, The Incredibles, and Up in theaters (ok I saw them all in theaters) but they were honestly really a big part of my childhood and I couldn't tell if I was growing out of them or if they were simply not as good. I am relieved to say that the latter is true. If nothing else, Inside Out is a breath of fresh air in a musty room and revitalized my hope for the hope of Pixar Animation Studios.

Riley is a girl that could have easily been me. I moved quite a bit in my childhood and I really related to all her personal struggles and the disdain she felt with the attempts to run away. She had haywire emotions, but who knows! Maybe we all do once in a while.

Joy:This movie was inexplicably happy and visually stunning. I can't recommend it more for anyone of all ages. Not only does it provide remarkable insight into the way our own minds may work, but it has a compelling plot with extremely lovable and complex characters. I was enthralled the entire 92 minutes even though in the end we all knew it would turn out to be alright. The journey is the most important part, after all.

Sadness: I'm so used to being the age of the children in these movies that it was so odd for me to almost relate to the parents more than I did to Riley. The only part of the movie that I can think of being sad at all is the loss of Bing Bong. It kind of symbolized letting go of the past and moving on to more important things. I related to this and I found that this movie is relatable for practically everyone of all ages.

Fear: I'm terrified to live in a world where everything is serious and movies like Inside Out don't exist. Movies like this one are so important to me because it reminds me of the past and reassures me that the future will be great. It lets me know that everything's okay and I think that's so important.

Anger: The unfair treatment and rap that animated films seem to get. I can guarantee you without a sliver of doubt in my mind that Inside Out is one of the best movies of the year and deserves to be up there nominated with all the other knockouts for Best Picture at the Oscars.

Disgust: The fact that I don't have these emotions in my head? For all I know, I might but I can't see them! I'm not disgusted with any part of the movie, sorry Mindy Kaling. I still love you. The ending of the movie even managed to avoid disgusting clichés and for that I have nothing but my sincere applause.… Expand

Inside Out is one of the most intelligent ideas Pixar (or any filmmaker for that matter) has ever put to screen, and possibly their most accessible film to date. Even when I felt some individual characters in the film begin to cloy, that feeling quickly dissipated, as I was soon blind-sided by their charm only seconds later. As with the universally acclaimed Toy Story 3, Inside Out clips along at a relatively fast pace, but never feels hollow, and is often hilarious throughout. Every moment of this film is truly a joy (no pun intended) to behold.… Expand

Inside Out is a beauty. The newest film from Pixar following the emotions of an 11 year old is, by far, the most creative movie the studio has made so far. You will not be disappointed when watching this movie.

But hey, here we go! I got 'Inside Out', which is now one of my favourite animated movies, filled with emotion. I can tell a lot good things about this movie, but "Major emotion picture" describes it best. It's filled with emotions, not just verbatim. I was crying both with laughter and true sorrow, I was smiling and frowning. Actually, I felt as if I was right there, next to Sadness and Joy, next to Riley – little, lonely girl, next to her parents with too many problems to explain their daughter, next to confused Fear, Anger and Disgust. Next to everybody, but also inside them. And out of the movie.… Expand

This movie has it's share of zany fun, but there's plenty of heart-wrenching moments - I could feel the waterworks flowing around me in the theater. It definitely makes you "pay" a bit fore the emotional payoff toward the end. It drew me in so much that I was a little shocked when the credits rolled. That's it? It's over?

Disney and Pixar have a great answer for you: five charismatic characters who, together with other interesting faces, control the cute Riley and teach us how our mind works. Inside Out explores all the mysterious and funny places of our head in order to show us that everything works together. Being happy is important but being sad, angry, disgusted and scared are part of our lives too and make us who we are. This is an amazing film not only for kids but to everyone else. It's common to forget essential things like the one that and being reminded of it in such an amusing and touching way is priceless.… Expand

With mature themes, great characters, superb voice acting, a hilarious script with strong emotional punches, breathtaking animation, and an excellent score, Inside Out proves that Pixar has still got it with their best, and smartest, film in years.

This exceeded expectations and more. Pixar is back with this one (until they make cars 3 of course). The fiftieth movie in the Pixar saga is an instant classic. This is the funnies Pixar movie sense find memo and is the third best in the franchise. Only find memo and monsters inc. top it and that's saying something.
The movie focuses on the emotions of humans. How emotions start, how they grew, and now they evolve. The movie is simply brilliant. This is the most or second most smartest movie ever. (Only movie to maybe top it is spirited away). The whole process that these emotions go through it amazing. They sleep, they have emotions themselves, etc.
The world they live in is the most impressive part of the movie. How each core memory has its own world, how dreams have their own world, and even how imaginations have their own world. This all constructs who we are as people.
They story is of how the core memories getting messed with and then sent away with joy and sadness. They have to get back to headquarters in order to ha panniers and Riley's (main character) whole existence. Though it won't be easy as they both will have trials and potential disasters to overcome.
It's a movie with great emotion as the forefront. It leaves you sad and happy (irony and mind blown). It's a great insight into what happens when someone gets depressed. The subtle things are also done so well. The little details in the worlds, the things they say, the things they do, etc, all add up a movie that is by far the best move of the year.
Overall I'm impressed that Pixar took a step back and really but their heart and soul into this movie. It shows on the screen. This is not just another great movie from a great studio, but a triumph of what the human mind can do and accomplish. 9.7/10… Expand

It also lacks an emotional punch, unlike 'Toy Story' or 'Up' just to name a few. But that's not a major flaw as it's very creative, has well developed characters, smart, and it's relatable, as most of us have been through these emotions and experiences. We do and once had gotten angry, frightened, sad, disgust, and have joy. Pixar really showed these experiences with Riley by having joy for her family's moving, disgusted by her house, frightened by the foods, sadden for not having friends, and angry by running away. We also see Riley's imagination or Goof Land fading away as she ages which is a nice detail.
Pixar's on the right track and hopefully they stay on that track.… Expand

The film takes you on a journey from inside a young girl's mind which are controlled by five emotions as she deals with moving away from what she has known and grew up. The sheer details and imagery is breathtaking. Pete Docter is a brilliant human being and really knows how we all feel and go through in life.… Expand

It may be a ways away from the pantheon of Pixar's far better films - i.e. "Finding Nemo," "Monsters Inc.," "Toy Story 3," etc. - but "Inside Out" still contains a hefty amount of that imaginative glory that made the studio what it is today.

Which makes the movie's ending that much happier. Inside Out easily ranks up there with UP, Finding Nemo, and the Toy Story Films. Pixar is back, baby!

While I give it a 10, it is not perfect, but it is one of the best animated movies in years. Yes, the ending is predictable, but how they got to that ending is not. It is a well thought out universe with characters you can love.

With the exception of Cars (which got Mildly positive reviews) all Pixar movies gained critical acclaim, with two films even getting nominated for best picture (UP and Toy Story 3) But after Toy Story 3, there was Cars 2. The movie that broke the chain of good movies. After that there was Brave, a dissapointment, and Monsters University another pretty bad movie. Pixar seemed to have lost its charm. Until this movie. Inside Out has all the amazing things of a Pixar movie plus more. All Pixar movies are visually stunning (even Cars 2), but this movie takes it up a notch. Never have I seen a movie create a completely new world so perfectly. Not only were the enviroments amazing, but the characters were great. The last time I felt this way about characters I had just met was Up. Of course in UP I cried in the first 8 minutes (which I usually dont do in movies so thats saying something) and in this movie I cried towards the end. If this doest get nominated for best picture there will be issues. My rating would be a 98/100 (9.8/10), but Im going to round it up to a 10. Pixar, youve done it again… Expand

As per usual the story is well crafted, and inventive, but the most impressive thing is the use of humor to help the moments of true drama. By that I mean the film has a relatable humor, that anybody can laugh at and have a good time with, so when the film decides to get serious it hits the audience even deeper. This something Pixar's always been good at, but this movie has some of the most touching moments since Up. On top of the brilliant use of humor, the visuals are stunning, the voice acting is perfect, and the characters are surprisingly well crafted.
