Fun for all ages: ‘Zootopia’ includes a great message (Review)

The official movie poster for “Zootopia”.

The new Disney animated movie, Zootopia, presents a world in which society is divided between predators and prey but they evolve and attempt to put aside their biological differences to live together in harmony.

Under the impression that the city of Zootopia is a place that “anyone can be anything,” Judy Hopps becomes the first rabbit on the police force and finds out Zootopia has problems of its own.

The film surprisingly contains deep messages about stereotypes and prejudices which is quite a heavy topic for a Disney cartoon. Zootopia takes a look at American race relations through the eyes of animals.

Even with its deep message, it avoids being too heavy on children. The film is a family-friendly cartoon full of cute, fuzzy animals dressed in clothes and telling funny jokes; also it has the traditional “Follow your dreams” message.

Reviews for Zootopia are incredibly high and has gained a 99% currently on Rotten Tomatoes. The film has also soared to #1 at the box office last week.

Zootopia is more than just another cartoon; it discusses social problems in the most brilliant way. It’s a must-see for all ages.
