Storyline

Growing up can be a bumpy road, and it's no exception for Riley, who is uprooted from her Midwest life when her father starts a new job in San Francisco. Like all of us, Riley is guided by her emotions - Joy, Fear, Anger, Disgust and Sadness. The emotions live in Headquarters, the control center inside Riley's mind, where they help advise her through everyday life. As Riley and her emotions struggle to adjust to a new life in San Francisco, turmoil ensues in Headquarters. Although Joy, Riley's main and most important emotion, tries to keep things positive, the emotions conflict on how best to navigate a new city, house and school.

Reviews

Pixar as we've always know have proved to the world that they can deliver all sorts of emotions and messages in their wonderful films but Inside Out takes that to a whole new level. Riley's story can be relatable to many people in the world but the message and emotions she goes through is relatable to everyone. We all experience happy, sad, fearful, anger and distraughting moments constantly through our lives and Pixar truly delivers on this film by showing why it's important to have all those moments in life as they help us grow as an individual and learn valuable lessons. It's incredible to see Pixar deliver their powerful life lesson through such creative way, which is something that has been lacking in their recent films but Inside Out puts Pixar back on the top mark.
