The perfect Easter Holidays movie

Rating: 7/10 (22 March 2016)

One of my fave words in the English language is anthropomorphic. I've always liked how it could win you a scrabble tournament with it's bonus word score. The latest Walt Disney offering "Zootopia" features a wonderful cast of anthropomorphic animals...though I should warn you some of them will appear nude in one scene. Among them is a rabbit who dreams of becoming a police officer and a cynical con man sly Fox voiced by Jason Bateman (the poor mans Michael J Fox) and together they must solve a conspiracy. The fun lies in working out who's behind this heinous plot and along the way explore this amazing place called Zootopia with it's various tundras that are bought to life with some stunning animation. I laughed like a Hyena (one animal not living in this city) since there's plenty going on here for adults to like on one level and children on a whole other plain. TV's Luther, Idris Elba, adds voice to the Rhino boss cop as Chief Bogo. This flick is a great commentary on how we are all on this big Melting Pot called Earth and need to live together without resorting to our primal base DNA instincts. It's very topical in light of not only the US Elections, but also recent terrorist events in Belgium. Chances are if you loved the big screen spectacle of Frozen and Big Hero 6 you'll fall heavily for this very entertaining movie. The perfect Easter Holidays movie...it's even got Bunnies.
