Pixar O.G. and now Chief Creative Officer Pete Docter touched our hearts with
Up, then plumbed the intricacies of the human mind in
Inside Out. It would follow, then, that his next movie would be
Soul.
Together, these are arguably the most grown-up entries in the Pixar canon, not for any sort of overly mature content, but rather for their sophisticated themes and storytelling. And Soul might be the most adult-skewing: It's the longest of the three, exploring The Great Hereafter and even "The Great Before," namely where souls originate prior to their arrival on Earth. This concept requires quite a bit of exposition, and it's executed masterfully by Docter, co-writer/co-director Kemp Powers, and co-writer Mike Jones, through bold visuals and pithy gags.
