Disney is making its way to being a studio that only puts out quality animated movies! Not just in the visuals but in the content as well!
Its not everyday where a movie is both entertaining and has something important to say. Focusing more in the storytelling than on how many jokes they can fit into one scene whether it be in the background or from the main characters.
Judy Hopps and Nick Wildem, the two main characters, are great together and they really carry the film, taking you through this world that is much more grounded than the visuals would make you think. This isn't just a movies for kids, its very much also for also for adults! Tackling issues from races to drug addictions, something you wouldn't expect to work in a movie like this but it does!
Zootopia was a big surprise for me and completely snuck under my radar this year! I am glad to see animated movies not just be made for really young audiences but actually be smart and cleaver to tell a great story and also be very entertaining.
