The Review: Inside Out 2


Inside Out 2 (8/10)


A few weeks ago L and I watched this. She had already seen it before me though. This takes place two years after the first movie with Riley heading into high school. Her same emotions are there along with a new element called Sense of Self. Joy of course is just putting good memories in there and puts the bad memories in the trash. Riley and two of her friends get invited to a well known hockey camp. Suddenly a damn puberty alarm goes off and some workers start installing new gear. New emotions Anxiety, Embarrassment, Ennui, and Envy show up. Anxiety quickly takes over and they get rid of the old team. The team have to fight back to get to the control room and stop Anxiety from ruining Riley's life.



I liked this movie but after further thought liked it just a tiny bit less than the first one. Some of it is because Joy seems to not learn lessons. Tossing away all the bad memories will end up making you a weird ass adult. We tried ton figure out some new emotions if they make another one of these films but considering how long it took for this one to come out I'll be in my 50's and not trying to deal with any emotions.
