Our take
Inside Out 2 goes back inside Riley's head as puberty arrives and Anxiety joins the crew. You get emotional storms, a few loud scares in the mind-world, and no swearing. Fine for children who already handled the first film. Very sensitive kids may find the anxiety sequences intense
Uplifting themes
Riley learns she can hold more than one feeling at once A clear picture of how anxiety can crowd out the rest of you
Story (may spoil tone)
Teenager Riley's mind headquarters is undergoing a sudden demolition to make room for something entirely unexpected: new Emotions! Joy, Sadness, Anger, Fear and Disgust, who’ve long been running a successful operation by all accounts, aren’t sure how to feel when Anxiety shows up. And it looks like she’s not alone.
