• Best debut for an animated film in Brazil with R$96.3 million;

• With US$152 million (R$829 million), it was the second-best debut for an animated film in the United States, after Incredibles 2, with US$183 million (R$998 million).

Just like the first part, Inside Out 2 continues to explore the emotions inside a girl. With the young woman on the verge of puberty, Alegria (Amy Poehler originally / Mia Melo in Portuguese), Tristeza (Phyllis Smith / Katiusia Conoro) and the others are faced with new and confusing feelings.

At the helm of the new students is Ansidade (Maya Hawke/Tata Wernick) – a deep recognition for three generations of spectators.

In a state of chaos and control, the newcomer expels the veterans, who once again need to cross different corners of the girl's mind to prevent a potential catastrophe.

The group's journey, driven by well-intentioned blunders of sentiment, is the greatest echo of its predecessor and could be a little more inspiring. But it is difficult to condemn the decision not to change the winning team.
