Family Flicks: Zootopia

zootopia

Recommend for ages 8+. 

“No one tells me what I can or can’t be.” The simple message of perseverance in the face of obstacles — personal, social, cultural, political — that animates Zootopia in concert with its clever, gentle sense of humor feels more timely than ever. A plucky rabbit (Ginnifer Goodwin) earns a spot on the police force of a teeming animal metropolis just as the delicate social contract between predators and prey is threatened by a string of mysterious mammal abductions. Teaming up with a sly fox (Jason Bateman), she more than proves her mettle with inspiration to spare. 

2016, dir. Byron Howard, Rich Moore. DCP, color, 108 min.
