I went to the weekly movie night hosted by SET. When you swipe in they give you a raffle ticket and you can get some snacks. They choose movies that are new and popular. This week they played the new Pixar™ movie Inside Out. Inside Out is a movie about growing up and the conflict between a person’s emotions during everyday life.

                The story begins with Joy’s quick overview of Riley’s life, Joy explains how Riley’s mind works and how she is a happy girl with a great life and Joy doesn’t think anything could go wrong. As soon as Joy finishes her explanation and introduces the other emotions a “SOLD” sign appears in front of Riley’s home. Riley’s Father has a new job opportunity in San Francisco so that’s where they are moving to.

When they arrive at their new home Riley is disappointed to find out how her home is dingy, small, and a bit run down. While Joy is attempting to have Riley keep a positive outlook, Fear, Anger and Disgust are fighting over the controls. Sadness begins acting weird and she keeps tainting all the memories from Minnesota with sadness, Joy tries to keep sadness from doing this but she cannot and Sadness ends up knocking all of Riley’s most important memories, her Core Memories,   out and they get sent to Long-Term Memory along with Joy and Sadness leaving only Fear, Anger and Disgust in Headquarters.

Inside Out shows the struggle that Joy and Sadness face to get back to headquarters before Riley ends up running away and how Joy has to learn the importance of Sadness before she is able to return to Headquarters to save Riley. This movie definitely is a must see with fun animation, a tearful storyline, and lots of laughter.
