We all need a bit of Joy in our life :-)

Rating: 9/10 (14 October 2015)

We meet Riley, a young girl growing up. We see the film through the characters of her emotions Joy, Sadness, Disgust, Anger and Fear. They work in HQ and operate Riley's state of mind. When Riley turns eleven her parents move her away to San Francisco, her life changes massively, Joy no longer having the influence she used to is temporarily lost along with Sadness, leaving Riley's start to school overseen by Disgust, Anger and Fear. The two have to find a way back to restore Riley's happiness. Along the journey Joy begins to see the benefit of Sadness. It's made all the more urgent that Joy gets back to HQ when she overhears Anger has decided that Riley will run away.
I've heard so many good things about Inside Out, I had to watch it, even thought it's not the usual movie I go for.
A clichÃ© I know, but there truly is something in this movie for everyone. It's bright, colourful and full of life on every level, you'd need to be made of stone not to enjoy it.
Pixar know exactly what they're doing, they make us laugh and well up, it's a great film, so imaginative. The last animation I saw that made an impact was Up, this did exactly the same. Joy's sadness was very sad, as was poor Bing Bong.
Amy Poehler's voicing of Joy is spot on, talk about a happy, positive voice.
It's a top notch film. A BIG 9/10
