Inside Out 2 Review | An Emotionally Great Sequel

Pixar said that they are taking a big risk with Inside Out 2. After the flop of Lightyear and the bad opening weekend of Elemental, this is their big test to see if they still got that magic and if people still want to see Pixar movies. In this emotional review, I’ll present why I think the studio can put their anxiety at ease, because Inside Out 2 still has that charm, even when making a sequel like this.

[@michaelbrowne3088]

Speaking as someone who suffers from anxiety attacks. The scene where Anxiety is zooming around the controls until she's a blur is one of the best ways to show how that feels. To the outside viewer, it looks like you're holding still, too scared or just unwilling to move but inside your head everything is spinning. Like a loud cyclone everything is going to fast to the point that you can barely hear anything. This is why Anxiety has already become my new favorite Disney character. At first it was because her anxiousness and muppet-like design made her adorable. But now it's because I know exactly how she feels, how scary it is when you're anxious, and how much it hurts. And you know what? It hurts seeing that happen to someone else too. There's a special feeling when you find someone (real or fictional) that you connect to because they experience the same hurtles in life you do.

[@saulthechicanootaku]

I agree as I feel Anxiety's character illustrates the hell it can do to us as anxiety can also allow irrationality and impulsivity to take command in our desire to seek answers, trying our best and shaping our future

And it is certainly what the studio needed after Lightyear bombed hard and Elemental having a not so good opening weekend, before going to a sleep hit thanks to positive word. I would say this would become the highest grossing film of the year and it is close to beating Dune Part Two domestically, but with Deadpool and Wolverine coming out at the end of next month, I think it is safe to say that film will take the top spot.

I'm actually pretty happy I got to see this film. It shows that Pixar can still make their masterpieces really well it's just that a lot of things hurt them during and after covid. My younger cousin Jace told me about Inside Out 2 without spoilers and this one got pretty realistic and even a little sad.

I saw this movie in theaters and I agree that this is another great Pixar film. I don’t consider it better than the first, but it’s still great in its own right. Some of the scenes actually hit home for me, especially with the scenes with Anxiety, and I love how Joy kept some of her character development from the first film here, especially with her improved chemistry with Sadness. With how much of a success this movie turned out to be, it certainly made me feel better after a while of worrying about Disney and Pixar’s future. Here’s hoping this continues with the next films they release. On a side note, when I was watching this review, I was interrupted by an ad talking about the film, which I thought was really funny.

[@danielgudinojuarez6729]

After two years of suffering lower box office results and many layoffs that sadly occurred, we finally have a sequel that is worthy not just to the first Inside Out but it became the best Pixar sequel since Toy story 4!! For months, I had anxious doubts if the sequel would ever stand on par with the 2015 masterpiece. But in the end, I was proven wrong and loved it very much. Just praying that the studio can still make newer original movies during their shifting phase at making sequels again. Yet either way, I expect great things for Kelsey Mann in the near future. He was head of story on Monsters university to Good Dinosaur and Onward, now he's a worthy and passionate filmmaker!!! 🥰🥰🥰

The first Inside Out movie had a red emotion, a yellow emotion, a green emotion, a blue emotion, and a purple emotion. For 9 years, I always wondered what Inside Out's orange emotion would look like, and now we have our answer! Anxiety is the orange emotion in Inside Out 2. I always worried about Mindy Kaling being out of Monsters at Work since I knew she was already recast in playing Disgust, but luckily she still plays Val Little in Monsters at Work's second season.

I’m currently on vacation in Austin, so my sister and I went to an Alamo Drafthouse and saw Inside Out 2, it was nice to spend that time together, since things haven’t always been easy for us in the past.😊(Weirdly enough, the last film we saw in theaters together before we moved was actually another Pixar sequel, Incredibles 2!) As for Inside Out 2 itself, I do agree that it’s not on the same level as it’s predecessor, but still a great sequel nevertheless! The animation is fantastic as always from Pixar, I love the new emotions, and it has a strong voice cast both old and new! My only criticism would be that the story did feel a bit too fast-paced, but it certainly made up for it with its heart, humor and especially that climax!

Orion and the Dark anxiety story: Feeling more soulless due to a sloppy mess and one of Dreamworks forgettable movies next to Joseph King of Dreams.

honestly i don't mind the voice actors change i did'nt even noticed until you brought it up.

[@Mariofanaticanimations]

I think Mindy Kaling didn’t also return for Inside Out 2 was because she was a sexual harasser on making her own Velma series for Max thus was the reason why she turned it down to play Disgust again for the second movie

Honestly, the heaviest hitter was the anxiety attack. Not just Riley's panic getting worse as the gravity of what she's done hits her like a truck, but Anxiety phasing in and out as the orange tornado keeps swarming the console.

Inside Out 2 The Story: 8/10 The Animation: 9/10 The Characters: 9/10 The Movie: 10/10 Is there anything I need to really say? Inside Out 2 is an amazing movie. There are moments that made laugh, moments that makes sad in a good way. But in the end, all that matters is that I enjoyed the movie. There's even talk about Pixar making a third movie, and a tv show.

I'm a HUGE fan of Inside Out and I loved the first movie back in 2015 when it came out!!! I loved the sequel EVEN MORE than the original because of the NEW emotions AND Riley's secrets as well!!!

[@BrandonCroker]

This was an emotional rollercoaster

[@SpacialRend7]

When going into this film, I was a little worried that the story would do a rinse and repeat with the emotion characters being flushed out of HQ and needing to go back to save Riley. But thankfully, there was a lot more elements added to the plot that added onto the plot to make it stand out and not a total repeat like its predecessor’s plot line. Inside Out 2 is a good sequel imo, a nice comeback for Pixar.

Lol! I swear, after a mixed review of a movie that was hyped up to be the highlight of Disney’s 100th anniversary, this movie as well as other announcements for this year, was a way to apologize for that.

[@KopaXTani]

Not to mention that, as someone on the higher end of the Autism Spectrum, as well as high anxiety and depression disorder, that one moment towards the end hit me way too hard to where I cried and I’m over twice the age that Riley is in this movie! Not to mention I rarely cry at things I watch unless it’s way too relatable trigger wise, or I haven’t slept the night before.

[@Tombola1993]

Pooberty sure hits everyone like a ton of bricks. I’ve been through that. We all have. Getting hairy, saying inappropriate and filthy jokes, being obsessed with adult video games while under aged (though I also like family friendly games to be flexible and have fun too), voice changing and having an overbearing attraction to girls and having crushes, trying and failing to get a girlfriend, going through breakups, getting touchy and ratty, having fallouts with friends, having anxiety about growing up, starting college and far more. I bet if Puberty was spelt like it sounded to Disgust, I bet Peter Griffin’s emotion, ‘Poo’ would be heavily involved. Just kidding. 😂 But yeah, looks great, love to see it, love the new emotions, love the casting of the ones who played Robin Buckley from Stranger Things and Sheldon’s Meemaw from Big Bang Theory respectively. Plus I love the Kingdom Hearts/Final Fantasy 7 inspired character named Lance, especially with his PS1/PS2 styled graphics. Really went the extra mile and kept him pixelated, rather than polished like Wreck-It Ralph in his universe.
