Riley has lived a settled life in Wisconsin but
her parents decide to sell the house and move to San Francisco. Riley is 11 years old and she has the same emotions that we all
have. There are five animated characters that represent her emotions. Joy, sadness, fear, disgust, anger. Her emotions live in headquarters and this is the control
center of her mind. They help to
advise her through everyday life.
Riley has a lot of new emotions in San Francisco. A lot of them are based on sadness for
what she’s left behind. Her memories are shown as softball-sized spheres with color codes. The memories are stored as short-term, long-term or tossed away.
I liked the premise and the story for this film but maybe I could have related more if a little bit of the adult brains had been shown too? This is very colorful and I'm sure the target audience would really enjoy this. 3* (This movie is OK)
