Alien at the Movies

It is poor little 11-year-old Riley when her parents move her world from Minnesota to San Francisco; a new home, a new school, and missing her old friends & old hockey team. See what goes on inside the head of this troubled child as portrayed by her inner emotions, Joy, Sadness, Fear, Anger, and Disgust. This is a cute representation of how the mind thinks, remembers, forgets, dreams, imagines, and reacts. The humor here seems to favor adults but hopefully the animated antics of these five colorful personalities will entertain the little kiddies who feel their emotions more than they understand them. This feature film is preceded by an amusing animated short that sings about volcanic lava love with an Hawaiian flavor.

Alien gives it 3 "imaginary Bing Bong" stars out of 4.
