I'm not really into the Pixar movies and this definitely explains why. The storyline was too weird for me. If this movie had been around when I was a kid, perhaps I would have enjoyed it more. As an adult, I did not.

Surprisingly good! Enough fun stuff for the kiddos AND does a very good job of explaining how the brain works at making, storing, and changing memories as they are influenced by emotions. Highly recommended!

This movie does a FANTASTIC job of showing how emotions and memory work together.

A solid entry from Pixar that'll help kids develop emotional intelligence. One of the better later films from the studio.

I've liked some animated films, I've fallen hard for a just a few (Pinocchio), but this one is a revelation. As an individual who has always stated that we would all do better if we reached back and remembered some of our childhood innocence and dreams, before we became harsh and embittered or "adult", this is the perfect representation of my view. Watching a youth's psyche literally maturing is actually a heartbreaking thing. Where the picture is mostly focused on just this, the idea may not seem like an incredible plotline, by far, but there's enough happening here to make you forget that fact. One of the best animated films ever.

well -the inside melted-and the out was happy indeed!

I love how the movie talks about how emotions are and even helped me in my life and the movie is great for everyone in the family.

Notice that there are just a bunch of feelings in there, fighting it out for supremacy. There isn't any ego or soul that referees or sets goals or anything like that. This is remarkably similar to what we learn from modern brain science, e.g., "How the Mind Works," by Pinker. I'm surprised the religious commenters haven't picked up on this. How are they going to roast you in hell properly, if there's nobody in there who's responsible?

A really solid movie overall. I love how it plays with the 4th wall.

Now ponder this. What if feelings had feelings?
