Review of Inside Out (2015) by Duncan P — 10 Jan 2016

Ironically one of Pixar's least emotionally-exploitative films, because it actually lets the emotion come naturally from what's going on, rather than getting so-called "depth" from trying to force the viewer to feel like crap (see: opening minutes of Up, for which the entire rather mediocre movie was lauded far too much; or the driving premise of the decent, albeit highly-overrated, Toy Story 3).

It's not perfect by any means - it works better on paper than in actual execution in some ways, but it was enjoyable, and darker than one might expect.
