Inside Out 2 Review: Pixar’s Long-Awaited Sequel Is a Near-Perfect Return to Form

The following contains spoilers for Inside Out 2, in theaters now.Pixar has been experiencing a bit of a low point as of late, with several movies underwhelming their general audiences. Ever since 2020’s Onward failed to impress movie-goers to the level of its previous films, the studio has been struggling creatively. It’s also worth acknowledging the reality that the COVID-19 pandemic and the rise of streaming played a part in knocking Pixar down a peg. All that changes, however, with Inside Out 2.
The sequel to the highly acclaimed Inside Out which was released back in 2015, Inside Out 2 does a great job reestablishing the concept and reintroducing the characters. Within the first 15 minutes, Inside Out 2 tugs at the heartstrings and elevates its story to the emotional peak that Pixar fans have eagerly been waiting to return. The film easily tops the first Inside Out and stands among Pixar’s best works, both as a sequel and a stand-alone movie.
Watching Riley ultimately make the poor decision of breaking into her coach’s office to find out how she’s doing in the hockey team is subtly heartbreaking. This girl who audiences watched grow up in Inside Out is now being haunted by anxiety and goes as far as breaking school rules and her coach’s trust just to satiate her ego. Through the lens of the anthropomorphized emotions in the film, Inside Out 2 does a wonderful job of relaying the message that what Riley is doing is wrong. Inside Out 2 has the potential to mold younger viewers’ moral compasses for the better, and that’s a testament to the incredible storytelling on display.
