    Surprisingly good sequel for such a difficult concept. But somehow I wonder if kids may find it more boring than adults, because I would probably not get this movie as a kid.

      My 6 year old likes the sequel more and says her favorite character is anxiety because of how it reminds her on when her emotions get too big for her. I think the second didn’t capture the exact same fire as the first, but overall they’re both good. It also teaches the kids about important concepts that imo everyone should’ve been taught from childhood. You’d be amazed at how much kids can understand.

      You wouldn’t get social pressures as a kid? It definitely speaks a lot to an adults sensibility of stress and anxiety, but it’s not like kids never struggle to fit in. Especially when there are major changes in their lives.

        Yeah… Now that you say so, my teen years didn’t look like the movie, that might be why.

        I just had weird nihilistic friends until I was adult enough to find happiness.

      I think it was aimed more toward tween and teen on the young side, and the “kid in all of us” on the older side.
