Review of Soul (2020) by Lucygamer2020 — 30 Dec 2020

I'm not saying people should NOT "enjoy every little things" but the pandering message is NOT what this world needs RIGHT NOW. While the underprivileged are enjoying their little slice of street corner pizza, the rich are savoring their $400 caviar in a pen-house on 40th floor; while the underprivileged are feeling the ocean sweeping over their feet on a disgusting public beach, the rich are sailing on a yacht more expensive than their entire home. Do you see it now? And this movie is telling the poor to just "watch the leaf fall" while their life-hood is quietly and slowly stolen away from them. This is so f*&k up.

We are NOT living in a society where equal effort warrants equal returns and the disparity of wealth is so staggering that fundamental systematic change is required immediately. This is NOT a time to ask people to "enjoy the little things", this is a time to ask people to make a difference, regardless what your role is in this society.

This is such a feel-good movie for lower-middle-class white people when the heroes of the movie - the black/brown communities are actually trying to make their ends meet every, single, day. So f*&k Pete Doctor and Pixar, for trying to teach black people how to live their lives and find their purpose.
