Riley (Kaitlyn Dias) is a happy, hockey-loving 11-year-old Midwestern girl, but her world turns upside-down when she and her parents move to San Francisco. Riley's emotions -- led by Joy (Amy Poehler) -- try to guide her through this difficult, life-changing event. However, the stress of the move brings Sadness (Phyllis Smith) to the forefront. When Joy and Sadness are inadvertently swept into the far reaches of Riley's mind, the only emotions left in Headquarters are Anger, Fear and Disgust.

Inventive, gorgeously animated, and powerfully moving, Inside Out is another outstanding addition to the Pixar library of modern animated classics.

Almost as if someone realized that kids were people too...Inside Out truly pushed the envelope when it comes to kiddy flicks.

Inside Out, which is co-directed by Pete Docter and Ronaldo Del Carmen, may be [Pixar's] most inventive film yet.

In the first half of the film, I was being piloted by Confusion and Dissatisfaction. But by the end, Joy was very much in charge.

Rated: 4/5

It is not easy to depict something at complex as depression, or something that resembles depression in Riley’s case. But Inside Out somehow makes sense of it.

The voice casting is perfect, the humor is spot on and smart, and like the best of Pixar it brings the water works (three times for me!).

The movie is very entertaining. It shows the life of each teenager, their ideas, problems, and what they live every day. The emotions help to show how each thought works and how it becomes a feeling, new or old.

What I liked most intensely was how they show that all emotions are important, even sadness. It's a movie that makes you think and also moves a lot. I found it very creative and different from other movies. In addition, I really liked the design of the characters and how they represent what happens in a person's mind. It's interesting to see how emotions work as a team, and how they affect our decisions and memories Daniel Lamprea
