Overall, "Soul" is a beautiful and inspiring movie that will leave viewers feeling uplifted and reflective. It is a perfect example of what Pixar and Disney do best, creating films that entertain and enlighten people of all ages. I highly recommend "Soul" to anyone looking for a cinematic experience that is both visually stunning and emotionally impactful. It is truly a masterpiece in every sense of the word.

Soul-Ful Experience,It's a Top-tier Pixar's beauty, It was simple yet too deep, The Concept at first was little like inside-out but once it goes further it gets as original and Great, The Animation is Stunning and soul's were playfully good, The music was 'soul', The voice cast was perfect and the story it was intriguingly brilliant, This movie literally makes the mind to think about everything beautiful about life for sometime, The Passionate jazz player and his misrable life taken when he just got a gig and his journey for getting back in life and A Soul's Quest to find purpose/ Thing in life, in that journey getting to know the purpose is nothing but meanings in life it was touching.. The concepts of spacing-out was brilliant and the fact that spacing-out due to passion and spacing-out due to obsession are considered same was surprising, The Joey and 22's journey was Fun and emotional, The character switch was entertaining, The 22's experiences of life and joey's obsession of gig just to taught him the meaining of life, The ending with 22's emotional transformation and joey's gift to her as life and at last joey getting another chance at life it was emotionally good, Overall it had Great Characters,Great Concepts and Amazingly beautiful POV to life, It was a Great experience to watch this "Art".

Soul, beyond most films and animations made from the past to the present, deals with the meaning of life.
This is not enough, and the main art of this animation is to make people think about life and how it is.
Extremely strong animate, unique soundtrack, and excellent directing and editing are so accurate that the viewer does not notice them, and this is exactly what the artist's mission in film and animation is.
To add value to a work of art without feeling its presence.
The right characterization of Joe Gardner, a very strong script and a tremendous impact after watching the animation, is what makes you think and think about your life for a long time after it is over.
Also, the type of display of pre- and post-mortem events for a child who is not familiar with these phenomena, is done beautifully and creates the best definition and mentality for them.
Ultimately, this animation was not made for a specific age group, nor for a specific way of thinking, and everyone will feel deep pleasure in watching it. In their thoughts and hearts.

The Redbox version I got had the director's commentary track. The commentary makes clear how many story changes occurred and how the audience is to decide what Joe choses to do when he comes back to Earth. Reincarnation is by no means the main theme here. Rather it ends in a very big Zen place John Lennon famously described as, Life is what happens to you while you are making other plans." I was thrilled to see the movie have an all black cast and turn this into a visual asset again and again. Jamie Foxx is astounding as usual. Jon Baptiste is the main musician. Three cheers I say.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Soul is an original movie from Pixar proving that the studio isn't yet down crafting stories that tackle ambitious themes. In this movie we see Joe Gardner, voiced by the talented Jamie Foxx, who thinks that he is living a meaningless life and that if he was just able to get his big break his life will finally have purpose. Right after getting his chance do play at a Jazz club with other talented musicians that he thinks will give his life meaning he dies and in trying to return to his life he ends up with an unborn soul named 22, who for thousands of years has been avoiding living. While trying to get Joe back into his body, 22 gets trapped inside of his fleshy prison, while Joe is locked in the form of a cat. Through this new perspective on life, 22 learns to put aside all of her preconceived notions about life on Earth and Joe comes to realization that it's the little things, not your passion, that make life meaningful. We realize that 22 has been avoiding life and is tries to create a disrespectful persona just to disguise her own insecurities with everyone telling her that her life isn't one worth living and through the mentor-ship of Joe she realizes that she is worth it and that life is worth cherishing.

There was very little humor or fun to this movie. It was slow and matter of fact, and I doubt kids will decipher the moral of the story. This movie probably won't be one your kids will ask to watch over and over. I also think the ending came up short... it would have been nice to see how the lessons affected change in the 2 character's futures...a "12-years later" scene would have been nice, IMHO!! 4/2021 Expand

FuriosaMar 26, 2021
This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Some time around the late 2000s, Pixar Animation Studios ceased to be the "can't do no wrong" auteurs that produced thought-provoking hits after hits. Somewhere along the line, it lost its soul and was reduced to being just another movie studio. And so, the world watched as we awaited the day when Pixar returns to form. Perhaps it's due to this vigilance that imbues in us an extra layer of stringency in our criticisms.

Ironically, the protagonist of Soul, Joe Gardner (Jamie Foxx), is very much like Pixar studios. He recognizes the craft, he knows it like the back of his hand, but he doesn't really understand the inner beauty of the music, the soul of jazz that embraces someone with the joys of life. He's too caught up in the technicality of the craft, too focused on textbook methods that make jazz function properly.

That's what Pixar movies have been for the past decade, and even now in 2020, it's my opinion that Pixar hasn't returned to its peak yet. That cat comedy schtick, man, it really took away from what could've been the movie of my dreams, the one that I envisioned when I first watched the teaser to the film and what potential it could have as a story. But instead, we get fairly generic comedy routines stagnating the middle parts of the film instead of focusing on Joe and 22 (Tina Fey)'s enjoyment of everyday life. I wouldn't mind watching an entire arc of that stuff. Act 2 of the film just wasn't as potent as it should be due to its reliance on tired comedy routines when it could've just been an entire slice-of-life sequence celebrating the mundanities of "regular ol' living."

But then comes Act 3, the final part of our tale, when Joe realizes what he has missed out or possibly forgotten in life, those very simple joys we take for granted: a new haircut, company with your dad, enjoying the morning breeze on a bike, sunrise, fireworks… and of course, the joy of opening a student's eyes to the wonders of life. You start to see during the final parts of the film what it should've been all along. You start to see what it could've been.

And if that's not tragic enough, I didn't really like the final scene either. I feel like a stronger ending would've been Joe being led to his teaching career again, bookending the story with where he started as he learns to appreciate the simple things. As it is, the movie just feels unfinished, like an unpolished draft.

To be clear, I think that 70% of the movie was well done. If you just cut out that 30% of comedy filler and focused more on building the atmosphere as Joe and 22 ride through the joys (and perhaps even the pains) of life, that would've been a stronger story. As it is, it's just another animated movie.

screenplayhouseFeb 8, 2021
This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. When I used to be a screenwriter type -- I'd sometimes write a story that was full of great ideas and such -- but at the end of the story it didn't nail the landing.

For days I'd scratch my head and try to make parts of the story more spectacular. Which this film does to... no effect. Except that it makes matters worse.

What I would then do is step back from MY story and act like it was written by someone else. What I would then do is go thru the 'rule book' (best practices of all great movies) and -- VOILA -- I'd discover broken rules. Everywhere.

Listen. I'm not talking about formula. I hate formula too. I'm talking about best practices. Do tables work best with four legs? Yup. So did Soul include tables with four legs? Or did they get caught up in/very distracted by their 'wonderful' story and forget these best practices? That's a big YUP.

The most appalling practice they violated was, "Who's story is this?" Like it or not, Pixar, every great story has one lead that the story belongs to. Did the Good Witch take over the story from Dorothy? Nope. Did Leia take over Luke's story? Nope. Did Buffalo Bob take over Starling's story? NOPE.

So why does SOUL think 22's story is more interesting than Joe's? To the (painful) degree that 22 inserts herself inside of Joe? This is not a transgender story. It was a story about a black man and jazz and then SOUL throws that in the dumpster.

So when this movie takes a victory lap for featuring a first black protagonist, think again. The morons are blissfully unaware that they got bored of that story and thought whitey ping pong ball Tina Fey was a better idea. Like I said, PAINFUL.

Tina Fey's role was supposed to be 'the best friend'. That's the 'best practice'. The entity that helps Joe on his journey. SHE should have become the cat, not Joe. The other major misstep in this piece is what I call WRITERS WRITING ABOUT WRITING. Instead of telling a story for all of us -- they're telling their story. The obvious violation of this is when a story is about a writer writing a screenplay that gets produced and his girl decides to marry him because "you're such a great writer!"

In SOUL Writers Writing About Writing is much better hidden. But it's there. You see the audience was pitched this story about a jazz musician. So what we wanted to see was a musician who goes 'into the zone' and makes us feel all warm and jazzy.

Jazz, in this story, is really about being a Disney animator. Spending morning noon and night rendering crap on computers. This was hinted at in the scene where the stock broker is given a soul. Remember what he did the moment that happened? He pushed his PC and monitor off his desk and ran out of the room gleeful to be alive. In other words: "Don't be a tool like me and sit in front of a computer all day. Go outside, in the sunshine, watch a leaf fall, and enjoy a slice of pizza!!!!"

This 'universal truth' is more an accidental recommendation of the story instead of an inspired goal. And really -- this viewer would have rather watched a musician find JAZZ and by doing so somehow unlock the secret of the universe. And I don't love jazz that much, mind you. It's just that --

-- yet another best practice is called 'If you put a gun on the stage -- use it." The gun, in SOUL, is jazz. Which they trashed for a slice of pizza.

This movie is being rated better than it should because black lives matter. But the cynical way this film blackspoited Joe to tell Tina's story is APPALLING.

5 stars is being generous.

I'm giving this film a 5 but frankly it's not worth recommending or seeing again.

Now its not perfect, it does have issue such as the Joe and 22 Body switch with 22 in Joe's body and Joe in his cat's body has been done to death so many times and honestly it was hard for me to watch at that point because I was kinda uncomfortable watching stuff like 22 (as Joe) eating Pizza in a allyway or trying to be Joe, it just was super cringy. That and New York as a location has been done so many times. With That said, Soul is still a very powerful movie. The message about earth having something to offer everyone is relatable for anyone, the jazz elements make the film feel more grand, the ending where Joe gives up his chance to go back to earth to 22 was just wholesome and he got to go back to earth anyways, and it should a lot of relatable elements like wanting to impress our parents, and following our passions. Soul although as issues I addressed at the beginning of this review, is still a very strong, emotional film. Does it stand against the OG Pixar films? No but its a very good film and I recommend it.

While playing fast and loose with the concept of birth, death and the afterlife, it often succeeds, but misses its opportunity to give life to itself with a truly worthy theme. Instead, Soul suggests that humans with a true purpose in life abandon their excellence in favor of acceptance and the world’s view of carpe diem. In short, it’s an attack on introverts and artists. While a somewhat entertaining film there are a dozen messages that are not especially positive for young viewers. As a piece of pure fiction, however, it delivers the typical feast of Pixar humor and humanity. Expand

I'm glad I watched it a second time because I like it even more now. This movie definitely feels more aimed at adults, although kids can enjoy it too, but they won't understand the themes until they grow old and have similar experiences that the movie depicts. Soul is once again another great original PIXAR film. I was really excited for this one because it showcased jazz which is one of my favorite music genres. After I watched it for the first time, I just had to sit and think for about ten minutes about my life and how I was spending it. This movie, though being deep in its themes, is very uplifting and also really funny, which I wasn't expecting. The animation is top-notch and very impressive. I especially loved the jazz sequences because I could tell that the musicians were in fact playing the right notes which blew my mind. The afterlife sequences in this movie were good but it really reminded me of Inside Out. I also really love the character design, especially for the "Jerry's". Soul really surprised me. As a story, it works really well. If I had a big gripe with the movie I would say that I wish that they wouldn't sacrifice some emotional moments with jokes, which happened on a couple of occasions. I don't know if this will be considered a PIXAR classic within the coming years, but I wouldn't be surprised if it did. Expand

With the release of Soul, I can confidently say that Pixar has made me cry more times than any other film production company.

Soul is a beautiful movie about a man named Joe who wants nothing more in life than to be a professional Jazz musician. After getting the opportunity of a lifetime, he does not feel the same way about it and questions his own existence. Joe then, unexpectedly, has an out-of-body experience that allows him to explore answers to many of life's questions about our body, soul, and if we have a purpose in life. Along with his new pal 22, they must try to get back to earth but not without first finding their purpose. Joe is a charismatic man who is such a relatable character; you connect with him right away. His new friend, 22, is a funny free-spirited character, and the two make for a great duo with contrasting ideologies about how to live life.

Joe and 22 have an interesting journey in the film as Joe gets to see someone else live his life, and through this experience, Joe realizes that there is no exact formula to living life, and it's about the adventure, not the final result.

Peter Docter returns to the director's chair to make you cry for the millionth time. Peter and Pixar seem to understand their audiences are not children anymore as the stories evolve with each film release. This understanding has allowed them to tackle very heavy questions about life, death, and our existence; more so than any other film I have ever watched.

The script is beautifully written and is full of so many new unique inspirational quotes that just make you question life and your own decisions you have made. Atticus Ross, Jon Batiste, and Trent Reznor put together a gorgeous soundtrack that takes you on an emotional rollercoaster that compliments every aspect of the film.

Soul is one of the best movies to come out of 2020 by far. It delivers such a powerful perspective on life and how we live it. Anyone who is a practicing artist, or has dedicated much of their life to a goal, should relate to these feelings of self-doubt that Joe goes through in the film.

Sometimes you just have to live your life, have fun, and enjoy the ride. We all know life gets crazy and hectic, and are all guilty of letting it take control. We are so blessed to be living right now, and we often forget what it is like to look up at the stars, or to take in the wonderful scent of a flower, or getting lost in a beautiful song. Life is made up of small moments and as Joe says " I'm going to live every minute of it".

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I really like Jamie Foxx and Richard Ayoade, so I was looking forward to Soul. Foxx is great, but Ayoade is unfortunately there for like 2 minutes in total. I don't think Tina Fey did a great job in this one. Graham Norton was ok for someone who is not a professional actor.

Animation is great, soundtrack is good, but the story is a little hard to follow sometimes and there are some things that I feel were left unanswered, like what happened to cat's soul, or who was that Lisa character. Overall, like most of the recent Pixar movies, I got a feeling that this is a movie that tries a little too hard. It was a godd one-time experience for me, but don't think I'll ever get a desire to watch it again, like I get with WALL-E, first Incredibles or Inside Out.

**11.5/12**

Yup. This one was an immediate masterpiece for me. The meaning of life and jazz piano, centralized by a black character. That's some pretty progressive stuff and quite the mature subject matter for a kids' movie. Disney/Pixar films are beginning to master the incorporeal and deeply philosophical themes that adults can watch and have their mind and soul enlightened, while children can be entertained and laugh. This one pairs with the the akin films: "Inside Out", "Coco", and "Big Hero 6". All instant masterpieces. The only thing that fell flat was the humor for me.

I didn’t laugh at very many jokes and a lot of them just seemed too childish or just unfunny to me. These type of movies are typically better at doing that but this one didn’t work. The next thing I'd like to see these films do is really provoke deep thinking like Lynch or the Coen Brothers do; create some surreal explorations of dream logic or leave the viewer misled and confused, respective to each director's challenging of perspective and storytelling. Rather than the surreal postmodernism of the aforementioned filmmakers, these type of movies challenge the viewer in a much more digestible and kid-friendly way. I adore it in a different way, but I would love to see Disney/Pixar try to disorient or challenge the viewer in a different way some day. Anyway, I've rambled enough. This was a tremendous film and truly made me feel cathartic and hit the right spots. I've been tapping into my spiritual side more and "Soul" showed me that those meditating or trancing go somewhere else and what it means to be in these metaphysical states. "Soul" inspires me to explore meditation and art, while also inspiring me to enjoy life as it is, small or large, and to follow my dreams, enjoying every negative or positive experience along the way. Here I come world; I've got a masterpiece to make now, straight from the soul.

'Soul' didn't connect with me on any deep level, but it is an undoubtedly sweet film. It attempts a lot of heart and I respect that. Jamie Foxx has been in some of my favourite films and he is good as Joe here. I also like the casting of Graham Norton as Moonwind.

One thing that probably stopped me thoroughly enjoying this is the animation and character design, particularly when in the "Great Beyond". It's not that it looks bad, or anything close, but I just found it a bit too plain. I never felt attached to any of the characters or settings there. I did, though, enjoy the sounds and music, especially in the aforementioned afterlife area. They do do that nicely.

It's definitely a good film and one with a nice and honourable message, I just needed that something extra to enjoy it more personally.

Pixar continues its transcendental journey. Trying to give meaning to questions that we all ask ourselves and that mainstream animation rarely addresses, this time we leave behind the interior of our emotions, the nostalgia of a past life orPixar continues its transcendental journey. Trying to give meaning to questions that we all ask ourselves and that mainstream animation rarely addresses, this time we leave behind the interior of our emotions, the nostalgia of a past life or the desolate future of humanity. Now PIXAR dares to focus on a theme that had been eating away at it since Up, Toy Story 3 and Onward; death. It specifically talks about souls, but this is only a vector, a spirit-shaped path that takes us to the beyond to really tell us about something more frugal and constructive: life!

Once again the house of the lamp is mastered with the power of metaphor and Pete Docter dares to give us his conclusion to that thoughts that some of us have been chewing on all our lives without giving it any resolution. Visually, it embraces the poetic style of Inside-Out adapted to the celestial context, you'll discover a palette of secondary characters as intriguing as they are surprising, and I have to say that the quality of the animation is so sublime, dense and rich in micro-expressions that one can no longer speak of technical mastery but of pure kinesic art.
I can't forget about the other protagonist, The JAZZ. His notes are not only for the delight of our ears but also are used to deconstruct the traditional scheme of the story and take us on multiple journeys full of comings and goings but with different tints that only the union of our five senses can capture.

For those who feared Pixar's Disney-like drift, Soul seems to be saying that even as time passes and people change, Luxo Jr's jumping and curious spirit is still present.
Pete Docter is a genius who is not aware that he is.

Soul is a fantastic movie. This was one of my most anticipated films of the year and after reading an abundance of overly positive reviews I started to build very high expectations. For the first time this year all of my expectations were metSoul is a fantastic movie. This was one of my most anticipated films of the year and after reading an abundance of overly positive reviews I started to build very high expectations. For the first time this year all of my expectations were met and some even exceeded. I had forgotten about how undescribable the feeling of watching a truly fantastic Pixar film could be, watching this all the more confirmed that Pixar is undoubtedly my favorite studio in the business. The plot is great it’s an unpredictable and extremely original story. It’s a story that questions every aspect of life while also reassuring the beauty of living life to the fullest. The story is full of unpredictable plot points that creates a engagingly fun tone. There is a few minor flaws with the story the most notable one being that there is a couple negligible plot holes. The pacing is great since it’s such an incredibly fun story there isn’t a single slow or uninteresting moment. The voice acting is fantastic from Jamie Foxx and Tina Fey. I was hesitant at first about how their voices would fit with the characters but I was surprised at how well their voices fit with the personality of Joe Gardener and 22. Both characters are very well crafted characters that will most likely grow to become some of the most memorable Pixar characters. Moonwind, Terry, and the multiple Jerry’s are great supporting characters as well.

The direction is fantastic from Pete Doctor and Kemp Powers, both men are some of the most promising men in Hollywood and through their directorial choices it’s obvious that they wanted to make this film like nothing that had been made before. When it comes to directors of animated films it doesn’t get much better than Pete Doctor. It’s hard to believe that he has never been nominated for Best Director at any of the major awards. The script is fantastic it’s an intelligent and very well layered script full of beautiful pieces of dialogue. The animation is phenomenal it’s realistic animation while also displaying cartoonish looking characters. The score is great it’s a simplistic and memorable score. The humor is fantastic this film is full of hilarious jokes, gags, and one liners. From watching the trailers the main thing I was worried about was that the humor would be dry but I was honestly surprised at how many times I was laughing. What always impresses me with (most) Pixar films is that they near perfectly balance genuinely hilarious humor and intense yet soft emotion. In terms of the Oscars I feel this film will definitely win Best Animated Feature and possibly (hopefully) get a nomination for Best Picture. Also I could definitely see this film getting a nomination for Best Original Screenplay and Best Original Score. The ending is a completely satisfying ending that leaves you to infer what happens next with the characters. Overall Soul is an extraordinarily emotional and incredibly well made film that will truly be considered an animated classic in the future. 94% A

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. A huge step forward for Disney who continues to extend the cultural variety and diversity of its characters. This time we follow an old black man whose passion is jazz. Everything is far from being perfect in his daily life, especially the day he comes to die by accident. The story really begins at this point. I think this is truly ingenious and even thought it was going to be a far more interesting movie than I expected. Following a man in his fifties is awesome. Following a man struggling with life but who realizes that it could be worse is great. Following a man who dies by being not enough focus in the streets is promising. Following a man trying to make a living from music is profound.

Soundtrack is as great as the animation. Pace in general is a bit weird with two serious slow and sleepy parts. Scenario was awesome at some point but ends up getting all messed up...

The rest of the story we follow Joe Gardner's soul in heaven who obviously wants to come back to Earth as soon as possible. He comes up to encounter some disruptive elements allowing the movie to take a huge funny yet unnecessary journey to make the kids laugh because in overall this movie is really hard to understand for them. For example, creatures living in heaven are just human concept ideas and are wierdly represented. Without speaking about a particular religion this movie however question their existence and especially asks the question of life after death (and life before life).

The ending is what made me lower the score so much. You don't die from nothing. Dying by accident doesn't make your death funnier, easier for your friends and family, less unexpected or even reversible. The major flaw of this movie is that it sweetens the reality of life too much. What would you have thought if Bambi's mother or Simba's father had woken up as if nothing had happened after being mortally wounded? Or the queen in 'White Snow'? Or Synndrome in 'The Incredibles'? 'Soul', in its core-story, is way too close to reality to allow itself to take death lightly. The fact it came out during COVID should have make the directors think more about it. If you want to sell dreams, sell real dreams, if you want to get closer to daily life, do it. But don't get piteously stuck in between. There were some truly attractive points in 'Soul' but when you consider it as a whole you easily realize it is falling into pieces.

Moved Me To Tears

I can't put into words how close to home this movie hit for me. Not to sound pretentious, but it's more than a movie - it's a life lesson on how to live. It'll teach you that life isn't about careers, goals, passions, or achievements. It's about living, right here in this moment, exactly where you are.

The voice acting, animation, soundtrack, writing - all phenomenal. It is officially the greatest Pixar movie ever created in my book. Kids will enjoy it, but this one is for the older crowd. It's for anyone who's ever felt like their life has been a waste. That they've made too many mistakes, that they should have done something else, that it's too late to live. 10/10

Overall a good movie. It is a bit too out-there for my taste though, but I still enjoyed it.

The great beyond and before seemed a bit too silly for my taste. The concepts of it all didn't really click too well for me. I struggled to keep track of the various different soul states and ways to enter the realms they are contained within. It felt like they had expanded their ideas too far when designing the movie. They did a lot better with that in Inside Out, which was brilliant!

I also felt that the movie struggles to deliver its message. Not that movies always need a message, but it clearly tries to deliver one.
But I was quite in doubt about what that message was when the movie ended. Should I give up my dreams and just sit and look at leaves falling from the trees all day? Was that the message? I'm not sure. But it was something along those lines. Or maybe it was about being less focused on yourself. That also makes sense I believe.

I quite liked that the movie doesn't really have any clear-cut bad guys. The antagonist is more like a soul thing. An inner struggle I guess you could say. Which I found interesting.

It's an endearing and lovable movie, it has most of those Pixar'y things that we've come to love. So it's absolutely worth a watch! But it didn't make me choke up the way Pixar movies otherwise ALWAYS seem to do. So I did feel like it was missing a few of the magic Pixar ingredients.

This film is the reason why I made an account here, I really adore this film! We definitely need more films like this. This is probably top 1 next to Zootopia! :D

The movie was perfect. It threw every element into play and made you enjoy the simple, tiny things in life again. The music was incredible and the musicians featured couldn’t have done a better job.

The music was incredible and the musicians featured couldn’t have done a better job. The explanation of your “spark” and how you become who you are is shown in a super unique way. I’ve heard dozens of stories of this movie inspiring kids and I’m inspired myself to make more out of life itself. This movie will change lives. 10/10 Expand

A lot of attention was put on world development here and the characters are spot on. So much so that this will probably figure in most top five Pixar animations lists. But it suffers a bit with verosimility, specially on character arcA lot of attention was put on world development here and the characters are spot on. So much so that this will probably figure in most top five Pixar animations lists. But it suffers a bit with verosimility, specially on character arc development. However, if the movie had done it better, we migh not have had a Pixar animation that is kids-firendly. Expand

First of all nice idea but just that, there is nothing more, even not deep emotional moments. just a nice idea and they just wanned to put it in your mind ok enjoy of every single minutes of your pathetic life even walking what next. thereFirst of all nice idea but just that, there is nothing more, even not deep emotional moments. just a nice idea and they just wanned to put it in your mind ok enjoy of every single minutes of your pathetic life even walking what next. there was no creativity in performance.in comparison to up or inside out it's disappoiting.
