    Return to Form for Pixar! Hooray!!
    This is a fun, emotional, colorful, sometimes silly, feel good, family movie! Just what we have been waiting for from the Disney company. Pixar hit it out of the park! See what can happen when you make a movie without pushing an agenda. My boys loved it. My 9 year old said 10 out of 10 (and he is a tougher critic than me). We talked the whole car ride home about our emotions, the choices Riley makes, right and wrong, pressures we are under, what it means to be a good friend. This movie touched on some great themes and topics in a way that is relatable and thoroughly entertaining. Please give us more like this!

    "My job is to protect her from the scary stuff she can't see."
    When I first heard that Pixar was making a sequel film, I was very excited as I simply adored the last one. I saw the trailer and thought that it looked good for a current movie. I went to see it with high expectations, and I came out sobbing from how personal it felt to me.

    For some context about me, I had terrible anxiety for years until I finally healed from it and watching the film from that perspective made it very personal. I found myself teary at a few of the lines that Anxiety said just because I had said them to myself in the past. The film portrayed accurate depictions of teenage life, from struggling to fit in, those feelings associated with friends going away, thinking less of yourself etc... One scene I found especially hard to cope with and that got me SOBBING just because it gave me time to reflect on how I used to be.

    Personal feelings aside, this film was really amazing. The animation was incredible, and the plot was surprisingly good. I loved the new emotions and its just as good as the first one (almost better)

    Good not great
    The first movie was brilliant in concept,screenplay and animation. You could relate to the characters. The kids in my family were in tears when Bing Bong disappears. It was the loss of childhood for all adults also. The dream studio was extremely funny. And you are stressed out when Riley runs away from home.

    I didn't feel connected in anyway to the characters the same way. Its got a good point but thats all there is to it. The screenplay is extremely predictable. You know she is going to make up with her friends in the end. You know Joy and co are going to somehow land back . In the first movie, every scene was a surprise and extremely creative. This movie severely lacks the same. The only part I could laugh at ,were when the Dora-like character appears. There is no endearing character like Bing Bong, no fascinating sequence like the dream factory or even the "train of thought".

    Please don't do a 3rd movie unless you have a original plot and setup.

    Inside out 2 was very disappointing. The idea of it was still there but it felt very rushed. I like the idea of Riley emotions going through a hockey camp. I didn't really care for the whole adventure. Truly wasn't that funny besides sarcasm part. That was a creative part. Maybe since I'm out of my teen years. I didn't really connect to the new characters all that much. The movie didn't get as deep into your emotions as the first one. The inside out short was the direction I hope this movie would go in. It was a decent movie overall. The picture was incredible and colorful. This is a bad review. I'll be better next time lol.

    Good, but.....
    The first Inside out wasn't like any other animated movie ever. It was a very deep movie it had great Characters and I felt like the Atmosphere of the movie was fantastic. The second Inside Out is a lot like the first in a few ways but still worth a watch if you enjoyed the first film. Inside Out 2 was a lot like tue first film but it was still imaginative and gave us more enjoyable and lovable characters. The plot was interesting but it was still kinda shadowing the first film. Although I liked the first film more doesn't mean this movie is bad. It shares a lot of similarities to the first masterpiece and sometimes the dialogue might be a little messy, but it's still a solid Pixar movie and a good sequel.
