I don't think the movie gets enough love. Not sure why. I went to the theater to see it and thought it was a good movie. It is actually ahead of its time because it has to do with upgrades and charging large amounts of money, and middle-class robots can't afford upgrades. Sounds familiar such as real life with technology. But it is a good story about a boy Robot who's dreamt of being an inventor like his idol Big Welled. He goes to Robot City to make his dreams come true. It's a feel-good action-adventure film we don't see often. It holds up well. The animation holds up well. The story is predictable but it's charming for all ages.

I admit. I have avoided this movie for years. I immediately judged it assuming it was kind of stupid. Or that she's dumb blonde who got accepted to Harvard because she's attractive. Of course, it's acknowledged she is judged because she's an attractive blonde she must not be smart. I did the same thing and I regret it. She is smart in a different way, and she brings it up people assume she's dumb and it's great. I love when movies point out stereotypes in people.

But I never realized the script is pretty good. The premise is ridiculous yet great pitch for a film. It's a great script for a romcom. It is obviously Reese's best work as Elle Woods. She is made for that role.

Definitely a tearjerker for any age. It is a fun family film but with so much depth. Kids will enjoy it for the character as emotions and the colors of the world inside Riley's mind. However, adults will like it because it has a hidden message for all ages, but probably more so for adults than children. I believe it is a secret movie for adults because of the hidden message. The message is it's not healthy to keep your sadness bottled up inside. If you ignore sadness, you might go into depression which is what Riley goes through. This was out in 2015 before everyone else preached mental health awareness. This was probably a first hint maybe it's a good idea to let out your emotions to heal your wounds.
