As a Pixar fan, hats off to Disney!

Zootopia left me in sheer awe. I finished watching this movie with my jaw wide open, my eyes joyfully dilated, and my breath taken away, just like that sloth when he reacted to the 3-humped camel joke. I actually had a hard time grasping the fact that this was a Disney-only production, for this level of humor and entertainment is unique to Disney-Pixar combo. The plot's major concern is about appreciating the differences while discouraging the discrimination. If I were to decide on it's main theme I would go with "Polarity" since it functions as the motif throughout the whole story and even the funniest gags are formulated based upon polarity and contrast. The master mind behind all the conspiracy is a lovely lamb with a woolly forelock, Mr. Big is no bigger than a petit shrew and guess who is driving the fastest car in the street? Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight! Acting is an ace in Zootopia. I mean these anthropomorphized computer- generated mammals made out of pixels and polygons are better actors than many in flesh and bones. The civilized land of zootopia with it's non- human citizens dressed in ties and suits, is so human-like that the scene introducing the naturalist club folks in the nude spa along with their hilarious yoga poses is one of the reasons this movie is rated as PG. And yet my favorite shot referencing The Godfather opening scene, presents Mr. Big, which in my opinion, is acted and animated far better than any cartoon character ever in the history of animation. Not to forget about the unignorable chemistry between Judy and Nick which I wouldn't mind if more of it was offered, maybe with a pinch of romance. All in all, I guess Zootopia restored my faith in Disney after ages.
