Critics Consensus

A film as beautiful to contemplate as it is to behold, Soul proves Pixar's power to deliver outstanding all-ages entertainment remains undimmed.

If anything, Soul is guilty of over-ambition. The wizardry and wit are there, but it lacks Pixar’s usual deftness in making complex themes sing for youngsters.

What follows is an absolute delight. It will make any viewer cherish the life they have and want to live it more fully, every single day, ideally with lots of laughs along the way.

It shortchanges itself at every turn by overextending itself.

4/5

It is a little scattergun in its approach, and the ontology may be a bit much for kids, but even they will relate to its message about appreciating life’s smaller pleasures, which this year feels like a good one.

A hectic, but wonderful celebration of life, and a moving animated ode to New York City’s jazz scene.

It's an inspiring movie as it shows how life works at it is sparks doesn't decide what you become it's your passion and need says what you become like the barber on the movie who wants a different job but his daughter was sick. As what it was it helps people get inspired as it shows how your own path is made by you with your own choices, it might be not how you wish to be done but there's always a challenge in every road.
