When the US media giant Walt Disney swallowed the rival studio Pixar (“Toy Story”, “Die Monster AG”) in 2006 and shelled nearly seven and a half billion dollars for it, the animation film fusion did not cause storms of joy among animation fans at first - the fear was too great Pixar under a commercially dominated Disney rule would only produce safe sequels instead of exciting other original materials. But puff cake! While Pixar continues to deliver such creative strokes of genius as “Wall-E” or “Oben” in addition to outstanding sequels like “Toy Story 3” or “Finding Dory”, Disney Animation is now under the supervision of Pixar mastermind John Let out one highlight after the other (most recently in a row: "Ralph Enough", "The Ice Queen", "Baymax" and "Zoomania"). But in the case of Leo Matsuda's animated short film "Heart or Head: Inner Workings", which is shown in the cinema before the Disney musical "Vaiana", there still seems to have been quite a miscommunication between the two sister studios - which is seven minutes namely nothing more than the stripped-down version of the well-thought-out 2015 Pixar masterpiece "Everything is upside down".






Okay, instead of a little girl, the protagonist here is an older man and instead of conflicting emotions in the brain, this is about controversial organs in the body (the bouncing heart wants fun, the pragmatic brain prefers to play it safe). But at the end of the day, “Everything is upside down” and “Inner Workings” are damn similar - and the Pixar feature film comes out on top: the animations in “Heart or Head” are certainly lively and charming, but wherever it is In “Everything is upside down” was still about coping with grief and puberty problems in a pleasantly complex way, “heart or head” comes to the fore (and in the times of work-life balance millennials also rather old-fashioned) morality amounts to monotonous work is okay, as long as you break out of everyday life in between and just have fun (read: surfing during your lunch break). The Pixar short films have long been legendary (and have won multiple Oscar awards), but Disney itself can do that much better (as the studio recently demonstrated with “Im Flug conquered” and “Get A Horse!”).


Conclusion: A very charming, lively short film - but in “Alles ist Kopf”, the same idea was simply implemented so much better.
