Summary

Animated comedy featuring the voices of Ginnifer Goodwin and Jason Bateman. In a world where animals co-exist in harmony, the city of Zootropolis's first bunny police officer is left hopping mad when she's relegated to a position in traffic patrol. However, after a spate of disappearances, she begrudgingly teams up with a wily fox to solve the mystery and prove her worth.

Review

A star rating of 5 out of 5.

Wendy Ide

All the best family movies can be unpeeled, layer after onion layer, stripping off the mass entertainment to reveal complex and sophisticated ideas within. And Zootropolis, another high-quality film from Disney Animation, is no exception. Ostensibly a comedy set in a world of talking animals that have risen above their base instincts to coexist in harmony, this perceptive and elegantly structured film is also a commentary on cultural sensitivity and political correctness. Heavy subjects are handled with the lightest of touches, but the jokes can occasionally touch a nerve, "You can't just touch a sheep's wool!" says Judy Hopps (voiced by Ginnifer Goodwin), the city's first bunny police officer, and the film's endearing central character. Dismissed as a piece of box-ticking by the Mayor's animal inclusion program, Judy finds herself relegated to traffic patrol. But with a spate of missing animal cases, Judy is forced to team up with her natural enemy, a wily fox called Nick Wilde (Jason Bateman). The animation is packed with deft sight gags; the play of light on fur is rendered in a way that brings these creatures to life. But the real vitality is in the smart and funny writing.
