The stage curtains open ...
What a fantastic movie! "Zootopia" really does deliver on all levels. Take away the animation, the striking visuals and the Disney magic ... and you're still left with a very good story. I like movies like this. It wasn't made just for the sake of being made ... all the fun animals and personalities, etc. It's intelligent and will keep adults just as entertained as the kids.
Judy Hopps, a little rabbit growing up in Bunnyburrow, dreams of being a police officer when she gets older. Even though she is pressured from her parents to stay home and become a carrot farmer, she is determined to make her dreams come true. Fifteen years later, she enters, completes and graduates from the academy and is sent to the thriving metropolis of Zootopia where she is delegated the heavy responsibility of ... meter maid. However, it appears destiny has much more in store for her as she teams up with a fox named Nick to solve a baffling mystery that runs much deeper than they think.
This is one of the better CG animated movies I've ever seen. It delivers a good crime story with humorous anecdotes, engaging action and top notch graphics. The acting is well done with a convincing plot and characters. The movie moves right along at a great pace ... except for the sloth scene, which was downright hilarious.
"Zootopia" is a very high recommend. It will keep you invested from start to finish with awesome development and a great finish. It is high on the re-watchable scale and I am already looking forward to seeing it again. If you have yet to see this one, pop it in, sit back and enjoy.
