Inside Out (2015)

It goes on a little bit with repetitive scenes of 'memory islands' collapsing, but Pixar's Inside Out, an animated movie-length Herman's Head about the inner workings of a depressed child's head, is surprisingly touching and a breath of fresh air for anyone who has grown weary of the positive psychology industry: the message of this film is the importance of acknowledging and sharing, and not simply blocking out or smiling through, Sadness.

Trainwreck (2015)

Sports-loving Americans might like this but as a mere Amy Schumer fan, not American nor very sporty, I was disappointed with what I thought was a very lazy Judd Apatow comedy, didn't understand a number of jokes about NY, thought the finale was unwarranted, and that odd "sports/relationship" commentary scene with Matthew Broderick and a handful of other randoms was absolutely mystifying.
