Great Movie. No matter what Terastas writes....

Rating: 10/10 (29 June 2015)

This review is in response to that horribly negative TROLL from Massachusetts which goes by the moniker "Terastas." I realize your sad little life hiding behind a computer monitor or smart-phone is all you have in the world, but you should be more supportive of original ideas like "Inside Out." First of all, this is a FAMILY movie. Pixar has mastered the art of movie-making that is highly enjoyable for the entire family. I understand you are either still a child or do not have any children, but let me assure you that millions of parents are thankful for Pixar for making films that simultaneously stimulate their children while entertaining their parents on a completely different intellectual level.
Secondly, "Inside Out" might not be a completely original concept, but then again neither are talking insects, monsters, toys, or the myriad of other usually inanimate, unintelligent, or mythical beings that movie studios have anthropomorphized for our entertainment.
Thirdly, the characters you so proudly labeled "one dimensional" and "dumbed down" because they weren't complex feelings or higher levels of thought processing represent the four basic emotions that control human thought. Remember, this is still an animated, FAMILY movie and not an avant-garde art-house film. Would you prefer characters such as "Sociopath" or "Bizarre Fetish Man" instead of Joy, Fear, Sadness, and Anger? Tarastas, I, too, feel that many of the average American moviegoers are simply sheep. And I'm absolutely sure that movie company executives think the same. If they didn't they wouldn't continue bombarding theaters with the same regurgitated crap that they've been doing for the past 15 or so years. Today, at the theater, while suffering through trailer after horrible trailer waiting on the feature presentation to begin, I noticed nearly every trailer was for a film that has either been "reimagined" or from an existing film franchise. The point I am trying to get across is that at least Pixar is still putting out quality movies that are well written as well as visually stunning.
Bottom line: "Inside Out" is a great film and an interesting concept with a good message. So call off the dogs, Terastas.
