Another picture that wasn't targeted towards me at all due to me being older and not a female interested in boy bands. This is likely why I could not connect to the movie and therefore had a tough time enjoying it.
I have to admit, the animation from Pixar looks exquisite, and I appreciate them diving into more mature topics, but I just didn't like this from a story or character standpoint. Most of the characters in this are downright annoying and don't have the sort of thing that I could relate to, especially the main protagonist. Again, loved how cool the fur looked, but that doesn't make up for the fact that the characters are like cardboard cutouts of all the stereotypes associated with 13 year old girls. I understood the turning red metaphor in the movie and what it meant to the character in this who is clearly going through puberty, but this picture needed more than that concept to keep me intrigued. You are better off rewatching another Pixar movie than giving this one a chance. However, you may like this if you can relate to the boy band craze of the 2000's.
