Funny Clever Movie

Rating: 9/10 (11 March 2016)

This is the best animation I've seen in a long time. This will probably go down as one of Disney's best. It was funny, it was witty, it was cleverly written and it had a very good message.
"Zootopia" is not the first anthropomorphic Disney movie. Just about every Disney movie gives human qualities and characteristics to animals, cars, planes, etc. This movie was unique in that it united the entire mammal world in one (seemingly) harmonious location. But what looked like harmony from a distance had some underlying ugly but accepted societal norms.
Beneath the beautiful exterior was stereotyping and making sweeping statements to encompass entire species. Those remarks could easily have been applied to the same situations we face as human beings trying to live with one another.
If the conflict of the movie could be summarized it would've been with one scene. There was one particular discourse between Judy Hopps (Ginnifer Goodwin), a rabbit, and her parents. She'd gotten attacked by a fox and her parents' statement was something to the effect that all foxes were jerks. Her response was that he was a jerk that happened to be a fox.
The movie was replete with the message of inclusion and forgoing stereotypes and bigotry. It was a very positive movie that was cleverly written and offered plenty of laughs.
