Inside Out movie is about a girl, Riley, and her five emotions: joy, sadness, anger, disgust, and fear. Due to some financial problems, her parents moved into a small house and Riley had to attend the school of their choice. This was a difficult situation for Riley; it challenged her bond with her parents and caused joy within herself to no longer be enough to keep her in balance. Anger, fear, and disgust began taking control. Joy always thought that sadness wasn’t good for Riley… But eventually it was discovered that sadness is also necessary to maintain equilibrium.
This is an intriguing movie. I enjoyed how it portrays different emotions as individual people. There are many moments that will make you tear up. Everyone can watch this movie.
Anyone out there who’s in junior high school, working it out, suffering- there are days you’re going to feel sad, you’re going to feel angry, you’re going to feel scared, that’s nothing you can choose. But you can make stuff. Make films. Draw. Write. It will make a world of difference.
