Inside Out


Family movie night.  It’s nice that Netflix now has (some) Disney/Pixar movies, unfortunately this one wasn’t high on our “to see” list, but hey, it saved us spending $5 on some other crappy animated movie.  Inside Out has some really neat concepts, I think they flew right over my 7 year olds head however.  It’s smart, intelligent and witty, but perhaps too much so for it’s own good.  About half way through my son says “Does this movie have a bad guy?” … you see to young 7 year old kids, movies are about good guys catching bad guys, not necessarily about thought patterns, emotional connections and cognitive thinking.  So, for an adult, it was a pretty cool movie made for kids.  For a kid, it’s a movie about thinking?  I don’t think he got it.  Tough to say you should pass on this one, but when it all comes down, your kid may just want to.
