Inside Out Review

This review does contain a few spoilers. I wanted to avoid them but it really just can't helped with this movie. I will make the spoilers obvious though so if you don't want to see them, you can ignore them.

I really do not want to ruin this movie for anyone because in all honesty, it is a good film. However, it is definitely not as good as it looked on the adverts.

I walked to the cinema so fast, I was so insanely excited to watch this movie ok. And, if I'm being completely honest, I have never been so bored watching an animation before, especially a Disney animation.

Maybe this movie just had too much hype surrounding it? i don't know because I don't like frozen but I wasn't bored watching that.

Right, it started off really well, the story was so lovely to begin with. It shown Riley as a baby and how the emotions came into it all, and it was quite funny. I think the main problem with this movie is that it is based around Riley aged 11. The movie was completely about the emotions learning to control themselves and run a child properly. which does sound like a good plot, if it had been done at the right time in a child's life. I think the movie would have been a lot better if it had been based in a time when a kid is really learning about their emotions properly and going through puberty.

Okay, so the main part of the story is the fact that joy and sadness get sucked up the pipe that takes the memories from the day to longterm memory. So sadness and joy then have to get back to headquarters to save Riley from becoming a recluse because she is being ran by anger, fear and disgust. And it was SO repetitive. Like, they tried to get back and it failed, they tried again, it failed. They then got lost. Then they get lost again. Then they find a new way to get back, that doesn't work out. It was like every new method they had to get back failed multiple times before it worked out - which as a storyline, isn't very entertaining and it very boring to watch.

Now, I know a lot of people go to watch this movie for a happy, funny family movie and I hate it break it to every single person that reads this, but this movie is far from that. This movie is actually pretty upsetting. these emotions can literally only be what they are named, sadness can only be sad, anger can only be angry, joy can only be happy etc, but, joy learns to be sad in this movie. [SPOILER] My favourite character was thrown in part way into the movie, given an amazing, touching and sad back story, promises were thrown his way, he was an insanely kind character and then he is killed off.  How is that suitable for children? Kids films are meant to be happy and have a really good moral. The only moral to this movie is that sadness runs your life and unless you learn to cry,  you will never be okay.
What kind of lesson is that for a child?
I truly believe that if you go to watch this movie with an open mind, preferably without having seen anything about the movie then you will enjoy it a lot more than someone who goes hoping to see a happy, funny movie. I wouldn't say that the movie is awful, but it's certainly not one I'd pay to see again.

Questions and answers...

Okay, so this is basically an updated "about me" because I haven't done one since I started this blog two years ago. I basically looked through a bunch of quesiton and answer posts off of other peoples blogs and threw together a nice long list of questions.

   I make sure I wash it every 4 days because then it's still getting it's natural oils that it needs, but it's always getting kept clean - don't want to wash it too often. I also use two hair serums, a dove one (that isn't available in the UK, I got mine in a poundshop because the langauge on the bottle is in a different language) and a john freida one. I also make sure to use a deep conditioning hair mask every week and, I mainly use one called Roots from Lush. I'm not the best at caring for my hair though as I do dye my hair quite a lot. 
9. Whats the colour of your natural hair? 
   I think my natural colour is a mousy brown. 
10. What are your views on plastic surgery? 
    if it's what makes you happy then go for it, just don't go too far...one lip filler is fine, it looks nice, but 5 looks tacky - know the limit. But ye, I'm considering it myself. 
11. Do you bite your nails? 
    ew no.
