Inside Out (Pete Docter & Ronnie del Carmen, 2015)

7.5/10
I thought it was fine, but maybe a step down from what I was expecting because I'm used to setting the bar high for Pixar. I was kind of hoping it would touch even more on mental health issues actually (maybe a lofty goal for a cartoon aimed at children, I know) - it felt like it brushed up against those issues momentarily but quickly backed away and failed to re-address them. It was good entertainment although the ending felt rushed.

Up (Pete Docter & Bob Peterson, 2009)

8.5/10
I've only seen two other Pixar movies (Monsters Inc and Finding Nemo) but this one as my favorite...the movie manages to be genuinely funny, heartwarming, and entertaining and it does it all with more honesty than most live-action Hollywood movies I've seen this year. It was just a lot of fun.

Monsters, Inc. (Pete Docter, Lee Unkrich & David Silverman, 2001)

8/10
Really good, really cute movie. It was just a lot of fun. The animation is really incredible, I have no idea how Pixar does it.
