I enjoyed this so much more on a rewatch. Forget the plot, enjoy the vibez. Lushness of death.

I wish this had been directed by Brian De Palma and had some sex in it. Needed more gothic wildness towards the end. I needed Oldman to go fully ballistic. But it’s engaging enough.

SOUL is another triumph for @Pixar - a spiritual sequel to INSIDE OUT that looks at how we find meaning & purpose in life, & what might happen in the space between those things. Death is portrayed as a journey into an obliterating void, plus there’s a funny cat. 💕

I’ll say this though - never has a Pixar film felt more focused on an adult audience. There are strong themes here about existential doubt, and the fear of having wasted your life; different concerns to the emotional management of INSIDE OUT. I wonder what kids will make if it.

As for me? Yes, I cried.
