Loved it, so did 4 kids I babysit. Don't let bitter parents stop you from enjoying this film.

Rating: 10/10 (29 July 2015)

Inside Out is the story of a young girl, Riley, facing emotional distress when 2 of her emotions, Joy and Sadness, are lost in her mind. They team up with a lighthearted old imaginary friend of Riley's, Bing Bong, who helps lead them up to headquarters to save Riley as the things that make up her personality start to disappear.
I greatly enjoyed this movie, as did the 4 children I babysit. They enjoyed the cute humor, fun characters, and colorful setting of the movie, and I enjoyed the accurate representation of what a mental illness is really like. While at some parts the movie did drag on a bit and there were many plot holes, as long as you're willing to suspend your disbelief enough, you'll enjoy this movie.
Yes, the movie is dark. But my god, I am tired of seeing ranting parents who think that they're suddenly great film critics because their kid didn't like it. If it's supposedly "Too dark for kids to enjoy", why are the merchandise and toys flying off the shelves? Why is it one of Pixar's highest grossing movies? If your kids can take Frozen and Big Hero 6, they can take Inside Out. Just because it's not Frozen doesn't make it immediately sh*t, parents. But I guess it would be hard to see this movie from all the way up on your high horse.
There are many great points to this film: Amazing character development, good humor that doesn't resort to fart or poop jokes, emotional (no pun intended) score, not resorting to a lame plot twist to keep the viewers interested, accurate representation of depression, etc. However, it has a few weak points too, such as mentioned before: Plot holes, slightly drags on in the middle towards the end, questionable universe inside the mind. Overall I give this movie an 8 out of 10. Definitely worth seeing in theaters, and I will be buying this one on DVD.
