That was an excellent one.

Such a frustrating disappointment

Redundant and unnecessary.

It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.

"Inside Pixar" is exactly what the title says, namely a little documentary movie from February 2013, so it will have its 5th anniversary soon, that takes us into the world of famous and successful animated movie production company and I don't think I need to tell you the names of the films they came up with in the last decades as you have probably not only heard of, but seen most of them if you end up on this profile page here. Now you will probably say that 30 minutes is definitely too short and you will be correct just like the previous reviewer, but let me tell you that in fact this one runs only for 20 minutes approximately as it seemingly was a half-hour television special that included a great deal of commercials too. But we should be happy with what we got here as these 20 minutes were pretty interesting, even if obviously more than just a bit rushed. And there are a few funny moments too like one man's preference for a certain kind of shirts. They include interviews with most of the big filmmaking names attached to Pixar and we see some nice scenes from Pixar films while hearing informative snippets about the production of said films. I guess this is all that needs to be said. I would not recommend seeing this one as a double feature with one of Pixar's finest films, but those who love the company's work (and honestly how can you not?) can certainly give this one a go. I give it a thumbs-up, even if I did not like the female narrator very much, but that's just subjective I guess.

This is a very short program about the Pixar company--and about John Lasseter (the leader) in particular. It has some very interesting stuff-- such as how laid back and childish the work atmosphere is here. Additionally, you get to see Lasseter's office--perhaps the coolest combination of an office and toy museum you could imagine! Some other things you learn in the film is that George Lucas made a HUGE mistake by selling out early on, about the impact of Steve Job's ownership on the company and the various projects they have done. The bottom line, however, is that this is a very short film (designed to fit in a half house time slot--including commercials). This makes it more like a glimpse instead of a comprehensive look at the subject. For this, see the much more thorough and interesting film narrated by Stacy Keach, "The Pixar Story".
