Inside Out is a 2015 American animated coming-of-age film produced by Pixar Animation Studios. It follows the inner workings of the mind of Riley, a young girl who adapts to her family's relocation as five personified emotions administer her thoughts and actions. The director conceived Inside Out in October 2009 after observing changes in his daughter's personality as she grew older and consulted psychologists and neuroscientists in an effort to accurately portray the mind. In fact, Twenty-seven emotions—including irritation, envy, greed,gloom, despair, depression, love, shame, embarrassment, and hope—were considered for early versions of the film, but the number was later reduced for the sake of simplicity. In the mind of a young girl named Riley Andersen are a series of personified five basic emotions that influence her actions: Joy, Sadness, Fear, Disgust, and Anger. Riley's experiences become memories that are stored as colored orbs and are sent into long-term memory each night. A central theme of Inside Out is the consequences and portrayal of emotions and memories. Those depicted in the film are "honest" and "generous"; their goal is maintaining Riley's life. After the success of Inside Out(2015), the sequel, Inside Out 2, is released in 2024, which tells the story of Riley's emotions as they find themselves joined by new emotions that want to take over Riley's head. On the review aggregator website, Rotten Tomatoes, 91% of 287 critics' reviews are positive, with an average rating of 7.6/10. Inside Out 2 clears the head and warms the heart by living up to its predecessor's emotional intelligence.
