    Missing the spark

    I am quite surprised at the overall positive reactions for this film compared to the first one as I don't think they are comparable at all.

    Unlike the first film, Inside Out 2 felt rushed and lacked the time to properly develop each character. The film lacked direction at times and felt quite disconnected. The first film had an amazing sense of journey and adventure and I think that's where this one missed the mark. The journey undertaken by the original characters simply didn't have the same sense of purpose the storyline felt forced to try and rush to the end where where we all learn lesson of the complexity of emotions are what life is about.

    All in all not a bad film, the animation was still great, same with the voice acting, it just lacked the extra magic of the first and didn't quite evoke the same feelings.

    6/10.

    Not bad, but not that great either.

    What we have here feels like a cheap copy of the first film. Except where the first Inside Out was filled with 'magic' and 'wonder', this one is replaced with lacklustre moments and uninspired inserts. The train of thought becomes the stream of consciousness. The core memories are now core beliefs. And where in the first film, Riley must grapple with her entire known world collapsing beneath her - she now must grapple with going to a new high school without her middle school friends.

    The movie isn't exactly bad, but it feels cheaper in comparison. Even the lessons learned are important in this movie. Don't let anxiety control your brain.

    But isn't that what we learned from the first film? We saw Joy trying to be a control freak - and - what do you know - in this film, Anxiety turns into a control freak, causing a bunch of chaos for Riley.

    What's more, the new emotions seemed like lesser versions of the original emotions. Fear becomes Anxiety. Disgust becomes Envy. Sadness becomes Embarrassment and Ennui.

    It's just too bad that the first movie came out of seemingly nowhere and told a unique and loveable story with lessons for all ages, and in its sequel, we have a movie that feels half-baked and lacks as many whimsical/playful ideas as the first.

    The movie wasn't as fun or meaningful as the first. Even the new characters felt gimmicky and lazily imported. A children's cartoon and a video game character show up. Sure they were amusing but they added very little to the story, unlike Bingbong in the first.

    First film better

    All in all, while "Inside Out 2" has a good concept and loveable characters, it is not perfect. Promoted as an entertaining event that lasts one and a half hours, it has a problem with a story. It introduces Joy, Sadness, Anger, Disgust, and Fear again who travel through teenage Riley's mind, but it is not as profound as the first movie. While pacing appears to be slow with large chunks where not much story occurs and the audience is not able to form a bond with the character. Although the first film was emotional and deeply meaningful, "Inside Out 2" lacks a single, overarching message compared to its predecessor. The humor and warmth are insufficient to make up for the shoddy plot, even though some of the animation and voice acting are excellent. Younger audiences will find it entertaining, but it falls short of the first film's potential, which will disappoint some viewers who were hoping for yet another heartwarming tale.

    This movie resonates not just with children, but the more mature audience as well. That's what makes animated movies great

    I can't believe I'm saying this, but this is one of the best Pixar movies to date. I did not expect to like this movie very much. Disney and Pixar have been vastly disappointing and even controversial recently, but Inside Out 2 rivals Pixar's best movies like Up, Monsters inc., Ratatouille, The Incredibles and Toy Story in quality.

    I found the story very moving. The best animated movies ever made appeal not just to children, but resonate with the more mature audience as well. And that's what this movie does.

    The theme was very poignant. I loved the introduction of the new characters and especially how they incorporated anxiety into the transformation of puberty. Anxiety is not fun, but many people struggle with it.

    The ending was great too. I love that they didn't wrap it up in a cliche way.

    Great job Disney and Pixar!

    Inside Out 2 - A good movie

    I have disliked a number of Pixar movies, for being idealess and soulless. It truely felt like Pixar had lost all of their magic. But Inside Out 2 is a welcome movie among recent disappointments. Not at all perfect but still good! The story of Riley's transition into her teenage years, and finding a way to handle all of her new emotions, especially anxiety, appeal not just to children, but resonate with the more mature audience as well. The theme can be a little complex for younger audience. However the writers mange to keep it simple, funny and emotional. All the classic signs of a truly good Pixar movie. I loved the introduction of the new characters, and found them all to be likable in there on way. You could understand the motivation of each character, and none of them were over the top and outstayed their welcome "Except nostalgia" :-) The ending was great too. I love that they didn't wrap it up in a cliche way. Over all Good! Therefore i give it 8 starts. Great job Disney and Pixar!

    • Trivia
      Phyllis Smith came out of retirement to reprise her role as Sadness for Inside Out 2. She requested that Pixar find her a recording studio in Missouri, as she had no intention of traveling all the way to Los Angeles just for that.
    • Goofs
      When the original emotions are in the back of Riley's mind with all the suppressed memories of negative experiences, several gold ones can be seen strewn about mixed in with the rest, representing joyful experiences.

      Although this may seem as if the original emotions have tried to suppress joyful memories, which they wouldn't do, this sequence occurs after the new emotions have taken over operations, so we can assume they are the ones behind the jettisoning.

      Joy: I don't know how to stop Anxiety. Maybe we can't. Maybe this is what happens when you grow up. You feel less joy.
