Which are the different emotions that guide us, interplay inside our head ? What really does happen in there ? Wouldn’t we just want to be happy all the time ? Could we ? It’s always fun when an animated movie raises such fundamental questions…and answers them in its own simplistic style…



Inside little Riley’s head run five emotions – Joy, Fear, Anger, Disgust and Sadness – and they’ve been with her since she was born. She’s an only child, happy, bouncy, loved by her parents, enjoying a normal existence in Minnesota, when suddenly, at the tender age of eleven, her first major crisis arrives. They have to move to San Francisco, due to her father’s work. Now she, and her five emotions, have to navigate through a new city, new home, new school, new friends…the works…



There is an extended sequence, which takes us out of Riley’s mental control room, and shows us other portions of the mind – a quite fascinating take on how our mind is organized, it’s different components, memories, islands etc. This part does go on for a little bit too long, drags a bit but is also when some fundamental realizations are made…



This isn’t one of those laugh out loud movies. There are a few moments of slapstick humour but most of the movie is funny in a more subtle way. Though a brief look at Riley’s parents inner minds is assured to bring on more than just a smile. Do stay for the end-credits, where they do a swift tour of some of the movie’s supporting cast. Events wise, there is nothing dramatic that really occurs, it’s all quite normal day-to-day stuff in our lives, - but then isn’t there a lot of depth to be found even in the most mundane of activities ?




PS : Whatever you do, do not arrive late for the film, as it’s preceded by a most beautiful, touching short (also by Pixar) called Lava…
