An interesting parody about human emotional equilibrium

Rating: 7/10 (20 July 2015)

The point of this movie is so simple that maybe I tried to figure out what way it was going to take. And I felt surprise. The point is that the human being cannot live holding and choking one of its emotions. So, they presented us Joy, Sadness, Fear, Disgust and Anger. They are emotions of the kid Riley, and they work in her brain to keep her balanced. Once Joy and Sadness were unbalanced during her childhood, Sadness did not find itself useful and naturally started a sequence of mess in her head. As an effect, she was thrown with Joy out of the "control zone" towards the mazes of memories and personalities islands. The moment that everything happened was one of the most scary moments of our childhood: the moment you enter in a new school.(Genial script!) So, this is not a movie about the kid Riley. Her personality had been constructed and destroyed and then reconstructed all during the piece and again, this is not a movie about her. Instead of that, this piece is about her emotions and how they are connected with each other in the construction of her personality. And how sometimes, Sadness needs to take control. Because if you are an human being, Sadness is there, somewhere, repressed or not.
