Inside Out

Retrieved from Retreived From

Inside Out proves that Pixar just proves itself again at being a factory of making memorable movies that so many people love. Inside Out really takes the cake as far as animated movies go in the past several years. It contains all elements that make a movie, drama, comedy, action, and even adventure. It is relentless in making you keep your eyes on the screen and it dazzles you with creativity. The characters to the right are representations of human moods, and the main characters live inside the brain of a young girl named Riley (Kaitlyn Dias). It gives quite a theoretical version of the processes that your brain goes through and how it dictates how you act.

The main emotions that live inside of her mind are Joy (Amy Poehler), Sadness (Phyllis Smith), Fear (Bill Hader), Anger (Lewis Black) and Disgust (Mindy Kaling). They all try to play their part of keeping her acting normal and sane while dealing with the rough emotional roller coaster of moving into a new neighborhood and house. As Joy tries to keep Riley from feeling sad she tries to keep Sadness away from any doing in the headquarters of her brain. This leads to Sadness feeling like she should do more and as events unfold it is Sadness and Joy by themselves in the "lost world" of her brain where such things as dead memories and make believe friends go. Sorry, don't want to give up too many spoilers due to this movie being so good.

All in all the film does relay a message of how even things we try to avoid, such as sadness, need to be in our lives by way of being able to learn from them. This movie is the definition of heartwarming, I was on the verge of tears at the very end but I was watching it with a girl I just started hanging out with so I decided to choke them down and wait to sob at a movie another time. The creativity and hilarity of this movie makes me watch again and again. The casting was flawless in terms of who played who. It was directed and written by Pete Doctor and I give Inside Out 8.5 out of 10 stars. One of the best films of 2015.
