A Strangely Enchanting Tale

Ever since seeing the first trailer, I was dying to see this movie. I am a huge fan of Del Toro's other work and I loved the aesthetic that was being used to present this story. The movie did not disappoint me at all when I finally got around to seeing it, (as the UK got it much later than the States,) and I am so glad it won best picture at this year's Oscars ceremony.
An all round beautiful production that has bags of heart and excitement to go along with it. Do yourself a favour and see this masterpiece, you will not be disappointed.

Known as Zootropolis in the UK, this Disney animation is set in a world where talking animals have evolved and live in peace and harmony, with the city of Zootroplis the New York (or London) of that world.

While they may have evolved, most animals still fall into several roles: the police (or security) forces, for instance, are nearly entirely composed of predators, with this film following the ZPD's first Bunny recruit as she attempts to solve a mystery around a missing person (animal) case, and ends up teaming up with a street smart, wise talking fox.

With an underlying theme of racism, the message, in short, is that anyone can be anything they want to be!
