Inside Out 2, 2024 - ★★★★

Inside Out 2 should have been a two-hour movie to allow more time for expanding the concept, especially in the first act. I would love to see more of the other emotions and how they interact in a healthy way. Everything felt so rushed, without enough time to emotionally invest in any scenes. …
