Pixar Animation Studios specialty has always been creating worlds for things we take for granted such as toys, aquatic animals and even cars as well as making monsters seem lovable. It's latest release Inside Out elevates them further by giving characters to our emotions and their working station right in our head. The premise is basically straight out of a Spike Jonze and Michel Gondry movie that makes this latest release from Pixar worthy enough for me to spend two hours in the theater not insulting my intelligence. A big thumbs up also to the film's animators for creating a colorful world completely different from the drab terms usually associated with films with clinical complex terms such as this.
The film is basically a story of a young girl named Riley (voiced by Kaitlyn Dias) whose life will change dramatically when she and her parents (Kyle MacLachlan and Diane Lane) will move from their hometown in Minnesota to San Francisco for her Dad's work. The emotions inside her head include Joy (Amy Poehler), Sadness (Phyllis Smith), Disgust (Mindy Kaling), Fear (Bill Hader) and Anger (Lewis Black) suddenly will work into full throttle and ready for action since Riley is still a child and not in the right state of mine because of the sadness of moving out with your friends you grew up with. All of us can definitely relate to her struggling to fit in a new place.
Ably directed and sharply written both by the superb Pete Docter (Monsters Inc and Up) , Inside Out is Disney Pixar's best original film since Up.
