Reviews from Rotten Tomatoes:
"It's a totally satisfying adventure with lot of surprising twists, and one of the best emotional payoffs in the Pixar canon," wrote Lou Lumenick from New York Post.
"A movie that's so smart and psychologically clever, it may leave little ones scratching their heads wondering why their parents are laughing so hard and getting so choked up," wrote Chris Nashawaty from Entertainment Weekly.
"There's no real way to prepare yourself for the flat out marvel of Inside Out, the Pixar release that not only revives the studio's legacy, but the whole concept of family entertainment," wrote Joanna Langfield from The Movie Minute.
"Whatever brainstorm led the Pixar folks to "Inside Out," they've created the most extraordinary film of the year," wrote Joe Neumaier from New York Daily News.
"A welcome return to form for Pixar, which gets back to making movies with smarts and heart," wrote Roger Moore from Tribune News Service.
"You want to see this movie. You need to see this movie. Because "Inside Out" is terrific, a mind-bending concept turned into a brilliant film, a return to form for Pixar not just in terms of quality but in taking risks - risks that pay off," wrote Bill Goodykoontz from Arizona Republic.
"This teeming, tear-duct-draining, exhaustingly inventive, surreal animated comedy is going to be a new pop-culture touchstone. In all kinds of ways it's a mind-opener," wrote David Edelstein from New York Magazine and Vulture.
