Pixar's Turning Red Review Roundup

It has been over six months since we were blessed with a Pixar movie, and if  you are anything like us, you have been craving a new adventure. Luckily, our cries have been heard, as Turning Red is releasing this week, but can it scratch that Pixar itch? Here's a round of what the critics had to say? 
USA TODAY
'Pixar’s at its finest finding a different angle to tackle the personal, and the best parts of “Turning Red” are reminiscent of how “Inside Out” also explored growing up – with heart, humor and the occasional gag. The story will likely mean a lot to young girls dealing with changing bodies and new hormones, and the moms and dads helping them through it. And for everyone else, the film reminds us to wholly embrace that “messy loud weird” inner beast that makes you, you.'

THE WRAP 
'For all of its unforgettable films, Pixar has justifiably taken heat for its lack of women in the director’s chair, and “Turning Red” acts as an object example of the universal but relatable storytelling that comes from offering a female perspective in family-friendly comedy. It’s a film as cuddly as Meimei’s panda form, but it’s also a perceptive examination of how one person’s coming-of-age has a ripple effect on those closest to them.'

ASK.COM
'There’s a strong message in the movie about maturing, making your own decisions and knowing when to say “no”. There’s also that idea of controlling your inner beast but being aware of when it may come in handy to let it out — I try to unleash mine only when dealing with rude people.'

ROGERS MOVIE NATION
'“Turning Red” isn’t so much a bad movie as a tentative one. It came to life with grand intentions, some cute characters, a ready-made toy tie-in and a hint of controversy. It plays as focus-grouped and watered-down — not the daring, boundary-pushing children’s edutainment it might have been.'

VARIETY 
'So will Shi and co-writer Julia Cho’s more serious ideas. Irresistibly cute and thoroughly unashamed of its own silliness, “Turning Red” may be second-tier Pixar, but the emotions run every bit as deep as in the studio’s best. Consider the magical scene in which Mei meets her mother as a young girl and gets to hear what pushy parents so rarely tell their children — perhaps the most resonant expression of long-withheld approval since the beauty parlor scene in “The Joy Luck Club,” when Tsai Chin’s character assures her daughter, “Now you make me happy.” Between this film and “Bao,” Shi has a gift for hatching allegories that translate well to animation. By unleashing her inner panda, she’s given girls everywhere inspiration to do the same.'

IGN (VIDEO REVIEW)

In the end, the film amassed a critical score of 92% from 61 reviews on Rotten Tomatoes. An absolutely great score, and further proof that when at their best, Pixar is number one in this industry.
