The modern mammal metropolis of Zootopia is a city like no other. Comprised of habitat neighborhoods like ritzy Sahara Square and frigid Tundratown, it's a melting pot where animals from every environment live together—a place where no matter what you are, from the biggest elephant to the smallest shrew, you can be anything. But when optimistic Officer Judy Hopps arrives, she discovers that being the first bunny on a police force of big, tough animals isn't so easy. Determined to prove herself, she jumps at the opportunity to crack a case, even if it means partnering with a fast-talking, scam-artist fox, Nick Wilde, to solve the mystery. (Walt Disney US)

Zootropolis or Zootopia is a utopia with animals, or, if you like, a city of animals, where everyone lives side by side without any discrimination and instead of eating each other, they help each other. A city where, as the main female protagonist says, everyone can be whoever they want. I was originally expecting a load of crap, the last animated movie I saw from Disney was (if I am not mistaken) a crazy musical called Strange Magic, and I started giving up on The Mouse's animated creations. Plus, animals that act like humans? I have been coming across this subject matter far too often lately, and after another utter fiasco called Norm of the North and the sheer horror of Agent F.O.X., I did not really want to watch this at all. But one positive review I saw finally convinced me to take the plunge, and I have to say I was very pleasantly surprised indeed. The animation is very nice; the settings are interesting and imaginative. The characters are interesting, Judy is cute (although I probably should not say that about her), and Nick is likable. The narrative is very good, and it is safe to say it is a pretty good whodunit with lots of twists and an unusually detailed portrayal of an investigation for an animated movie. SPOILER ALERT I watched the suspect and thought it would be nice if the perpetrator were really him. The fact that this came true pleased me; however, when I was expecting the ending and the vague message about equality between all animals, the movie's screenwriters surprised me by going even further and interestingly developing the point they wanted to make. I knew the real perpetrator the moment he turned up, it was almost immediately clear, and the point about equality between the animals and the message of the whole movie worked quite well for me. END OF SPOILERS. As for the comedy aspect, I was not so entertained throughout the entire movie even though I did have a good time for most of it and occasionally laughed (at the sloths, the mafia boss, etc.). All in all, I have just watched a very enjoyable animated movie, and I am satisfied. 8.4/10.

A crime movie in the style of Shane Black :-). The sloths made me laugh like nothing in the past few years has done. I literally cried. The animals look super cute and there’s a bunch of playful details and apt references to the real human world as well as to classic movies. Moreover, the film has an additional message for today’s Europe that its makers probably didn’t even intend to send. I won’t add a fifth star only because the idea behind Zootopia is not as strong as in Inside Out. Zootopia is “only” perfect fun.

My child self had a wonderful day today! This is thanks to the amazing city of Zootropolis, which is full of cute animals of different sizes and personalities. It makes me so happy that someone can come up with something so magical and play with every little detail. In short, it's an incredibly uplifting film with an upbeat soundtrack that makes you want to dance and scream "I can do it!" when you don't even know what it is you can do. So if you need to recharge your batteries or at least get a taste of that childlike enthusiasm again for a few minutes, go check it out. 5 stars. How about making a whole movie about the sloths? :)

An excellent detective movie with a social overlap, beautifully reflecting prejudices, bullying and media manipulation as well. Who cares if a fox and a rabbit are in the main roles. Old fables in a new format. First-rate action, humorous word duels, hilarious gags to entertain both kids and adults. I admit that my kids sat there gobsmacked by some of the darker scenes that are quite serious for a kids movie, but still it’s good that they are shown some of the down-sides of globalization. A wonderful world, classic music and, is it just me, or did else notice some small tributes to The Last Scout?

Animated films are one of my lesser favourites and I watched Zootopia before I knew anything about it, and this nearly-billion dollar hit and is indeed a success even for me. The film isn't so much for the little ones, it is a colourful whodunit driven by buddy humour and full of references to better known films that smaller children certainly won't get. It has amazing pacing, beautiful animation, literally breathtaking, all the details and animals look wonderful – the central duo is excellent: the rabbit is hilarious, the fox is properly cunning and smart. And on top fo that, the frequent twists are very unexpected and intelligent. Who knew that underneath the animated veneer was such a polished film that also tackles world issues like bullying and racism. The scene with the sloth is the highlight of the film !!! :) 100%
