What to Expect From Pixar’s Sequel – ‘Inside Out 2’

EntertainmentWhat to Expect From Pixar's Sequel - 'Inside Out 2'

Say Hello to ‘Inside Out 2’

Disney Pixar’s newest creation, ‘Inside Out 2,’ takes us once again into the mind of Riley, now a teenager. If you’re thinking Pixar always nails it with sequels, you might want to think again. While this year’s sequel does bring the fun, some fans think it misses the emotional mark compared to the first film.

Riley’s High School Journey

In ‘Inside Out 2,’ we follow 13-year-old Riley as she moves from middle to high school. This complicated phase is full of tough feelings, and the movie tries to tap into this. However, critics have said that the story and emotions fall a bit flat. That doesn’t mean there’s nothing to like about this sequel.

Looking Back at Riley’s Story

The main problem with the film seems to be the storyline around Riley. The first ‘Inside Out’ stood out because it touched on widely shared feelings in a special way. But ‘Inside Out 2’ leans more on fond memories from the past. It’s more of a usual growing-up story, which could let down fans of the original, which came out about 10 years ago.

Riley’s Mind World Returns

We’re back in Riley’s head, with all the old feelings like Anger, Fear, Joy, Sadness, and Disgust. This time, there are new feelings too: Envy, Anxiety, Boredom, and Embarrassment. Directed by Kelsey Mann, ‘Inside Out 2’ will be in cinemas on June 14, 2024.

Emotions Lacking Depth

The movie tries to explore tough feelings like anxiety, but it feels a bit rushed. The sequel doesn’t seem to add anything new to the world in Riley’s mind.

A Bit of Newness

Still, there are some good surprises in the sequel. The new feelings, especially Anxiety, add to the story. There are also new characters that bring some funny moments.

Laughs to the Rescue

Where ‘Inside Out 2’ really shines is its humor. Some jokes have been given away in trailers, but they’re even funnier in the movie.

Should You Watch ‘Inside Out 2’?

Even though it’s not quite as powerful as the first, ‘Inside Out 2’ is still worth a watch with its humor and warm moments. The movie comes out on June 14, and even with its flaws, it brings more laughs but less emotional depth than the first film.
