Zootopia (Animation is only going forward)


A bunny walks into a police station and gets the job as a police officer....wait what? Judy Hopps (voiced by Ginnifer Goodwin) plays a rabbit with big dreams and Nick Wilde (voiced by Jason Bateman) portrays a sly yet selfish fox. Sooner or later, they team up and start to solve the mystery that will give Judy her true position in the force. This animated movie goes very deep. Never in a Disney film have I seen them go to such realistic measures and plotlines involving animals. Let's be honest, the idea of a crime story where the prey creatures start to re-evolve into their true selves again may seem a little far-fetched for the audience this movie is created for. However, the genius behind these films is that they can put an unrealistic characteristic and realistic idea together and make it work. It works because it is simply relatable. Any person, working for the police, could probably tell you how hard this feature hits the nail on the head when it comes to struggling for your dream. Along the way, you accept new ideas and ways of life as well. It's almost too crazy how much we can feel for Judy and her situation even though to other people, she's something we adore as a pet.
Zootopia is the best example of how much animated movies are progressing. While there have been many successful similar movies in the past, it's safe to say that film companies aren't running out of ideas. Who knew a bunny and fox could have such a promising impact?
