SOME PEOPLE ARE SCARED TO BE HONEST HERE - at least, that's what I think. Yes, this movie is super well done (pixar quality all the way) ! But, what I feel is... This not a children's movie. It's just a good message given on proper timing. They were so focused to pass a message, that the entertainment part was sooooo lacking... I HONESTLY got bored in the middle of it and got really close to sleeping on my couch. What kept me going was the message, which was super predictable, but irresistibly sweet... AND SUPER ON TIME! Visually interesting, interesting plot, revolutionary characters. The magic and wonder, we are used to get from pixar, is just missing... The movie also lacks the super relatable characters and the fun plot full of funny scenes... That I was hoping to see! I almost cried, and it was beautiful sometimes... BUT I didn't want to watch a sundance premiered drama short film... and that's what it felt like.

After the opportunity of the gig of his life, Joe, finds himself in the limbo between Earth and an unknown world. As for the technical part, the animation is grest, with a lot of attention to detail and atmosphere. The sound design is very competent, with a personal and vibrant glow, but I wanted more. The story itself has so many layers that it is difficult to describe them all. It begins with the case of a life of acceptance and stagnation, dreams that are nothing more than that and fear of rejection. Then, the film addresses themes like anxiety, the failed educational system, social exclusion, the need for peer approval, elitist classes and opportunities that are not given to those who deserve them, and much more. Our spark is unique, and it is up to each one of us to discover the way to make it, and keep it lit.

This movie is full of mental twists and turns. A little hard for kids to follow I'm sure, and hard for some adults to follow as well. I enjoyed the movie and it will spark conversation about meaning. Isn't that a great thing? To discuss a movie. Watch it and make up your own mind. I loved Inside Out and this movie has some similarities in that it delves into psychology and makes you see life through a different set of eyes. Don't listen to the bad reviews.

Soul is a delightful movie that is surprisingly suitable for adults, more than for kids. A grown up man dies, only to rethink everything he thought was his passion, his spark. The movie is a success. Scene for scene, every moment is a possible tear-jerker or smile provoking. But its biggest flaw is that it downplays the essence of purpose so much, that it loses its content, and overplays the "live here and now" message. That doesn't make this a bad movie, because it's perfect for a lovely evening. But it's also remarkably forgettable.
