Zootopia

Rotten Tomatos: 99%                Cinemascore: A

     Watching Zootopia is like drinking a great hot chocolate on the first day of winter. Its warm, fresh, and familiar, all the things Zootopia takes pride in being. Zootopia is Disney's take on a buddy cop movie with a couple of twists. The first twist is that everybody in Zootopia is anthropomorphic, meaning they act essentially as humans, and they have developed a society in which every animal is equal...except not really. This brings the discussion of racial issues in society into the discussion for a movie that is pretty much just a fun investigative adventure. This makes the movie incredibly mature at the cost of making its message in no way subtle. In the end Zootopia was a great treat but nothing that blew my socks off. I laughed a good amount, had a great time with the story, and the movies surprising depth will give me and many others something to come back too. 

Initial Score: 3/5


Also this movie has callouts to both Breaking Bad and the Godfather and when are those not welcome!
