A Totally Brilliant and Highly Original Film

Rating: 8/10 (26 March 2018)

Everything about this original gem from Disney/Pixar had me absorbed from the very start. It gives a graphic, amusing, serious and interesting account of an 11 year old girl uprooted from an idyllic life to the harsh realities of the inner city, and how five of her key emotions help her to adapt - even when things go wrong. From a psychological viewpoint, the film researched the subject with input from professionals in their fields, and this is demonstrated throughout the story. The only thing missing was a soundtrack. Disney could have included the brilliance of good music / songs, which would have made a Inside Out an Oscar winner on every front.
