This short film alone is more than enough reason to go see Inside Out.
When I went to the theater to see Inside Out tonight, little did I realize that the best part of my evening would be when they showed the short, Lava, before the feature film. However, like Inside Out, I doubt if Lava will resonate very well with small children, as its intended audience appears to be adults.
The short is very simple--as you'd expect in a short film. It consists of the most adorable volcano in history singing a love song--hoping that perhaps a girl volcano will answer his call. Amazingly strange, I'll admit but the film works remarkably well because Disney Animation is clearly working at its best on this one. The CGI is breathtaking--working magnificently with the 3-D technology-- something that isn't true of most 3-D films. The story is lovely as well and will most likely have many of you reaching for your Kleenex. The bottom line is that this is one terrific short and more than reason enough to arrive at the theater with plenty of time to spare so you don't miss a moment of this lovely film.
