'Inside Out' Review

This .gif from Disney Pixar's Inside Out pretty accurately describes anyone who has seen the movie this weekend.

It is a beautiful animated feature that really touches on the hard parts of early adolescence and beyond, and how emotions play a part in all of our lives.

One of the most important lessons from the film is how it's important to feel sadness. We all try to bottle up the 'bad' feelings as much as we can, but without allowing those feelings to come through we can't move forward with our lives. 

It was truly magical to go to a 9pm show, where, at 24, I was the youngest person in the audience and the whole room was laughing like kids throughout the movie. It was such a joyous experience (with some prerequisite Pixar tears thrown in there). 

It is the best animated film I've seen in a long time, and the best part is - there are no obnoxious songs to get stuck in your head afterwards. 

Each voice was paired perfectly with the different emotions (with the talents of Amy Poehler, Bill Hader, Mindy Kaling, Phyllis Smith and Lewis Black). Writer/Director Pete Docter has created a true masterpiece, and one that is perfect for honestly any age group.

The feel good movie of the year that reminds you that feeling good isn't all that life is about.
