Thirteen-year-old Mei is experiencing the awkwardness of being a teenager with a twist – when she gets too excited, she transforms into a giant red panda.

Heartwarming, humorous, beautifully animated, and culturally expansive, Turning Red extends Pixar's long list of family-friendly triumphs.

The movie's message might make some parents uncomfortable, but Turning Red has all the emotion and visual appeal that Pixar fans expect.

'Turning Red' has mixed reviews, with some praising its animation and others criticizing it for being unappealing. The plot is deemed predictable and formulaic, lacking originality. Puberty themes are either seen as too explicit or inadequately handled for family audiences. Pacing issues and filler scenes are noted, along with underdeveloped supporting characters. Despite these criticisms, some appreciate the film's attempt to address complex themes and its vibrant animation style.
