First off, Hi blue haired Tinker Bell and Pissed off Super Meat Boy. Seriously, why was she the only one who glowed? 
Not fucking done.
Let me say that the concept is NOT original. Countless shows have done this as an episode going into the mind of the mind character at some point. This is just Pixar's take on it. 
Hell, my first story in school for a project was myself being struck by lightning and having to team up with my emotional selves to confront a beast version of myself. Which was the first design of Zephyr, instead of arms he had tentacles don't ask. And the titles was "In My Head." 

I'm not complaining that "oh they took my idea," no because this idea has been done so many times! People online bitch about unoriginal things. Yet this movie gets SO much praise.

Do I hate it? No, there are moments that were charming, captured family moments kinda like what up did. Though, it repeated the main character and side car character concept that has been done before in Pixar movies. I was hoping for a bigger adventure with all the emotions. The visuals, most are pretty nice to look at, colorful is always a plus especially if it can take place inside the mind. While the real world can have some dull colors. The humor in this movie can seem cliche, I can't remember laughing with this movie. The only parts that gave me a little chuckle were the Pizza and bubble gum commercial parts. 

There was something that bugged me, you're making a movie about emotions, so to see these emotions act as an emotion they are not bugs me  for some reason. Unless you take into the concept that if you combine the two main emotions, you get another one. Like Joy and Fear make Surprised as an example. 

But I'd say yeah, I'd watch it again for visuals.
