Fantastic!!! And simply adorable.

Rating: Null/10 (21 February 2016)

First off let me start by simply saying this was by far the best movie I've seen in years hands down! Sorry Star Wars, but my heart rests with this film!
So what's to say? Well for starters the detail is simply amazing! There were honestly so many things going on I simply wasn't able to catch every single thing and trust me there is a lot! The scenery and characters are just so organic and the attention to even the most smallest of detail was incredible!
As for the characters (I'll try to keep this spoiler free from here on out but I will add one little thing right at the end. Warning will be given beforehand!) So... The characters are all done perfectly, even the villains are hard not to like! Both main characters were very relatable and each face something special to the story. I found myself at times loving Judies kindhearted optimistic nature although I'm a bit more like Nick with his more worldly look on life and the small we get to see of his back story is both sad and tragic and is something that still haunts him as an adult. Nick is funny, very funny! And a bit sarcastic at times and although he's not the overly emotional/affectionate type but he does have a heart and he does show it in his own way when the time comes! From what I know of Ginnifer Goodwin and Jason Bateman the personalities of Judy and Nick fit the real life counterparts perfectly!
Story wise Zootopia is first and foremost a story of being true to ones self! But also just importantly it's a story of over coming perceived prejudice. Zootopia does a very good job and displaying what could be easily understood as bigoted attitudes concerning race, gender, or even sexuality without ever being preachy about it. It also shows rather bluntly that not all stereotypes are completely untrue! The film does have a message however, a very positive one! It's simply be good to one another. We're all in this together.
I've seen a whole lot of people bring this up and even more art of it so this might upset a few! Judy and Nick are not a romantic couple! They are and do however become very close friends that do love and care a lot about one another! I find that sometimes a close friendship like this is every bit if not even more important as being in a relationship.
All in all Zootopia is a must see! Young or old! You'll laugh (a lot) and might even tear up just a bit. But by the end I'm certain you'll have a huge smile on your face! When this comes out state side in about two weeks from the date of this journal post GO SEE THIS MOVIE!!! Trust me as someone who doesn't go out very often this was worth every penny of what I paid! You'll not be disappointed. This is no Chicken Little folks!
My only negative point is I wish they would of given Nick more story. I was left with many questions that were left unanswered like why he was homeless. Also it should of been noted that Nick is also a vegetarian, it hinted to this but never really said such.
