I absolutely loved this movie, personally I would call it one of my favorite Pixar films. While I do agree the story isn’t the best, the execution definitely makes up for it, the animation is very well done and shows how far Pixar has come with animating fur on their characters from Sully's fur in Monsters Inc. to Mei's red panda form, the characters are really fun and really enjoyable and the humor is great, I definitely do agree this is easily one of if not the funniest Pixar movie out there. So overall, Turning Red for me was a movie that I absolutely loved and was so much fun to watch and is easily one of my new favorite Pixar films. Also I have to say that Mei’s red panda form is the absolute cutest thing I’ve seen in an animated film in a long time, after this movie was over I honestly wished Mei’s red panda form was real because I just wanted to give her the biggest hug ever.

Even if it’s not as perfect as the other Pixar films, Turning Red is still a very fun movie with great animation, a heartwarming story, and entertaining characters. The songs from the fictional band, 4-Town, were very catchy. Domee Shi did an excellent job at bringing this movie to life.

I had a great time with this film and while I don’t think it one of the best films I seen from Pixar mainly because of some jokes I thought were a dud and I thought the climax was too similar from how I seen from other Pixar recent films since entering the 2020 decade including what I went through with the final Hotel Transylvania film without spoilers by the way and I do agree that it rather predictable with how the outcome turns out from the type of coming of age story that we seen before, but it worth checking it out from the solid story, great animation especially how it tries to be more like anime, fantastic direction from Domee Shi, relatable characters, funny humor, strong voice acting, and good music score and songs from Billie Eilish and Finneas O’Connell and Ludwig Görransson. It a shame that some people are attacking this film because of the several choices that Pixar never went with including different animation style and the subject matter of puberty. It like Raya and the Last Dragon situation except in my opinion, the message from Turning Red and recently Encanto was better handled and more subtle than Raya was handled. So far the reaction is pretty much all over the place where you have people like you Mat along with CellSpex, Saberspark, Chris Stuckmann, Dan Murrell, Grace Randolph, and John Campea for example saying it was great while others like Schaffrillas and LS Mark saying it was alright to good at best while being respectful of course, and then of course people that has a hatred towards this film that just simply didn’t like this movie. It all over the place but I hope they don’t attack Domee Shi and the people at Pixar because of the different style and subject matter they went with.

I really enjoyed this movie though I will admit that I don’t think it’s perfect as the first 15-20 minutes are a bit cringey as Mei comes off as super pretentious and I got nervous that she was going to be like this throughout the entire movie, but after she turns into the panda she becomes a lot more tolerable and the movie becomes a lot more enjoyable. It can happen where she’ll slip back into being pretentious from time to time after she turns into the panda like when she’s at the concert and she says “what’s she going to do ground me” and one of her friends tends to use the word literally in the wrong context, but I’m just nitpicking at this point I still thought this was a great movie and I would definitely be up for seeing it again. Can’t wait to pick it up on blu ray when it comes out so I can listen to the commentary track (if it has one that is)

You think Mei being pretentious is cingey? That's nothing. I found the scenes where she twerked really cringey, especially when she used it against her mom in the climax. I hate twerking humor as much as underwear jokes. I would just like to ask if we could please stop relying on twerking or underwear jokes in animated kids films to make them laugh? I'm sure are there other types of humor kids find funny other than twerking and underwear jokes.

Redbandit

Was twerking even a thing back in 2002?

One thing I’d like to add about the story too, which I guess is a bit of spoiler if you haven’t watched the movie yet, so if anyone who hasn’t watched it yet is reading this and don’t want to be spoiled, please skip my comment. But anyways, when my mom and I watched this together, she brought up the fact that when Mei becomes a red panda and becomes popular in school because of it, it reminded her a lot of Micheal J Fox in Teen Wolf. If anyone here hasn’t seen it, well, trust me, you’re not missing much, but in Teen Wolf, Micheal J Fox plays an average teenager who wants to be popular at school (see why I’m saying you’re not missing much?) but one night, he discovers that he’s a werewolf, and at first keeps it a secret from school, but then he accidentally turns into one during a game of basketball, and everyone starts loving him because of it. Overall, Turning Red is definitely the better movie between the two, but I’d thought I’d point that out.

Kenneth Stoddard

I think it best not to use twerking in general both in animated films and shows considering the fact the fictional kids characters are under 18. I get why in context at the climax but there are other ways to do this without the twerking elements in this.

Kenneth Stoddard

I seen Teen Wolf when I just about to become a teenager I didn’t think about that movie until you brought it up. That a good point still.

Since we’re getting new movie directors for Pixar movies, including Turning Red, I wonder if any of the original directors like brad bird or Andrew Stanton are going to direct any more Pixar movies. When it comes to Andrew Stanton, Finding Nemo has always been my favorite movie of all time and I enjoyed Finding Dory the same. If any of the old directors are still producing movies at the studio, I’d love to see Andrew make a third finding Nemo movie.

Lady Helen Bio Rodriguez

Its very specifically made with a specific culture in mind and I for one love that.

Hunter O'Laughlin

Well, I know Twilight or Nightfall which is a parody Priya is reading wasn’t a thing in 2002. That wasn’t published until 3 years later.

Hunter O'Laughlin

I guess a nickname you can give Turning Red is Teen Red Panda.

Redbandit

Well Brad Bird has moved over to Skydance Animation to work on another movie so I don’t think he’ll be back at Pixar anytime soon, as for Andrew Stanton I honestly have no idea

Hunter O'Laughlin

If Andrew Stanton were to make an animated film for Pixar again, I’d rather it’d be an original animated film in the veins of WALL-E than a Finding Nemo sequel.
