Tonight on Canal+: This is the best film to watch with the family at the end of the year

The end of the year celebration is an opportunity to gather as a family for a fan reunion, which often forces us to go through all the emotions that we are more or less in control of, especially when we go through a phase that is often called the ungrateful, wrongly, phase of adolescence. .

And the animation geniuses at Pixar got it right! That’s why they decided to give a sequel to one of their best films after nine years, which I recommend watching with the children and adults around you.

Remember the opposite, the winner of the Oscar for the best animated film of 2016, which introduced Riley, 11 years old, prey to his main emotions: joy, anger, disgust, fear and sadness. A young girl’s brain is trying to keep her alive amid various changes in her life that disrupt her short and long term memory.

The biggest global box office hit in 2024 with the family

This year, the Pixar studio introduced young and old alike to the continuation of Riley’s adventures in Vice-Versa 2. This time, the young girl is a 13-year-old who has to deal with a lot of firsts and the effects of puberty.

The first emotions are soon joined by new emotions that are even more difficult to manage: envy, shyness, boredom, and especially anxiety, in which many viewers recognized themselves and were disturbed by this growing embarrassment discussed in our society.

Through this new chapter in Riley’s life, experienced by many adults and anticipated by many teenagers, Vice-Versa 2 was able to capture the hearts and minds of audiences gathered in darkened rooms.

Between friendships, the opinions of others, self-doubt, questions, anxiety, and the desire for freedom, Riley’s journey through adolescence is not an easy one. He makes us go through all the emotions and bring us beautiful tears in this even more genius, poetic and funny animated film!

It’s no surprise that Vice-Versa 2 is the biggest worldwide box office success of the year, grossing nearly $1.7 billion. It was also a success in France, as the Pixar film is the third most-watched feature film of the year in cinemas, with more than 8.4 million viewers.

If you missed it in theaters or if you want to watch it in a family session, know that Vice-Versa airs this Tuesday, December 24 at 7:30 PM on CANAL+. The film is also available on myCANAL and also airs Friday, December 27 on CANAL+.
