truly cute and fun movie. story is new and enjoyable. music is good but they kept using parts of the same song over and over, if they had given the band more songs movie would have been far better but still very worth seeing

Disney’s portrayal of puberty was spot-on! It was like the 1985 Teen Wolf movie, but for young girls.

Good animation, but very odd.

Truly an underrated gem

Like most Disney and Pixar movies, Turning Red explores the adventures of witty Chinese-Canadian 13-year-old Meilin Lee, who eventually turns into a fluffy red panda when she is mad, sad, or scared. With characters voiced by Canadians and the humor and emotional depth, Turning Red is an absolute must-watch for the family.

La peor película del mundo mi primito hace algo mejor en el modo cine de freefire es enserio trama mala personajes muy dramáticos exagerados y raros

Disney and Pixar's "Turning Red" is a great blend of teen coming-of-age drama, fantasy, adult and slightly cringe but funny comedy, brisk pacing, clever animation, and a nostalgic, boy band-inspired soundtrack. The themes about cultural heritage and growing up are very thought-provoking, and a lot of the main characters are memorable and full of personality. The only downsides to the movie are how the final scene at the SkyDome felt a bit too dark, clashing with the light-hearted tone of the majority of the movie, and that the character of Ming Lee felt a bit too mean-spirited, forcing Mei, the main character, to be someone she is not without showing guilt in doing so. Much like the Abuela in "Encanto", she is a slightly mean-spirited maternal character, only showing guilt later on when we learn on about her severe trauma involving how she and her own mother had a fight. That still is no excuse to be mean to your own child. Regardless, "Turning Red" is an amazing movie nevertheless.

How slow do you have to be to make a movie as bad as this!?!? HIRE ME I SWAER ILL MAJE A MOVIE SO MUCH BETTER THAN TS

An entire movie about… a teenage girl’s period, basically? You’re joking right? A woman director, I’m so shocked given the subject matter. Yikes, not funny at all, I really would have expected better from Pixar. Maybe this has its audience but it sure isn’t any guys, who will feel the cringe from the first frame.

What a beautiful coming to age story depicting the loving / hate relationship mother / daughter. Just rewatched it for being Chinese lunar new year. Beautiful story and animation sequences and a great message. And chery on top, music of my favorite vegan pop stars Billie Wilson and Finneas 🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿/5 on Disney +

Reminiscent of Inside Out - not surprising given that debut feature director Domee Shi has credits on both of those films - this takes the idea of turning into a giant red panda when emotions are heightened as a way of exploring puberty for adolescent girls. Funny and charming, and not afraid to be downright weird, it's well-intended and bound to be helpful for many girls experiencing the vagaries of that messiest of life-stages. But it may lack the greatness of the Inside Out films, and be a bit too liable to default to the bland animated film trope of the self-actualised, we're all OK as we are, type. It's fair to say my adolescent daughter likes it but doesn't love the film; she doesn't seem to connect with it in the way she does with the Inside Out films. But it may be, of course, that never having been an adolescent girl, there are things I'm missing.

My daughter and I loved this movie! If I could have given more stars, I would have! It is a great movie for all ages. It is funny, moving, has wonderful characters, and a great message.

It's different from the normal Pixar style, but still has the heart and humor you'd expect, just done a little differently.

Did NOT like it that much

Dec 2, 2024

I'm just so tired of these same type of kids' movies over and over again. This is the 86th "Just be yourself" kids' movie and it is the straw that has broken this camel's back. Now to get this out of the way, like all Pixar movies, this has all the technical stuff down beautifully. The animation, sound and voice acting is all on point. And in all honesty I can't say it's a bad movie...I just hate it. This is yet another kids' movie where the parents are painted as the monsters and the friends are the ones that are there for unconditional love. With few exceptions in Disney animated films the parents are either the villainized or dead. Why does this "family company" seem to hate parents so much? With so many of these films following this tired trope, why does this movie in particular get the brunt of my ire? Well for one, it's Pixar. This is an animation company that I have come to expect more than just run of the mill after school special tripe. Second, this is 2022. We have heard this message before and it has been run into the ground. Heck, the last 3 Disney movies ( Luca, Ron's Gone Wrong and Encanto) all had the same "Just be yourself, your flaws are what make you who you are" message. In the same way stuff like "Ferngully" would get criticized for beating down the same environmental message we've been hearing since "Bambi", I will critique "Turning Red" for giving this same tired message. And finally, this one lacks any subtlety. They beat you over the head with this message from the beginning of the movie all the way until they spell it out for you in the end. It makes "Zootopia" seem subtle. Also very on the nose about its puberty parallel. There just aren't any funny jokes you can make about menstruation, period. The characters in this film, particularly the mom, act so over the top ridiculous that she inevitably ends up being set up as the simple strawman to knock down for the sake of the message. The way she reacts to certain plot points was so unbelievable it immediately took me out of the movie. If you can get passed the narration at the beginning and not see exactly where the movie is going, and you're not sick of the "parents are the worst" cliche, then you'll likely enjoy the movie. I personally liked the setting and anime influence. But for me, in the words of another animated Panda, this movie gets "ska-dooshed".

By far the worst animated movie we've watched lately, we got bored with it as a family and turned it off halfway through.
