Zootopia - review

Well, what can I say about this movie, in addition to “I laughed a lot!”? I really don’t know.

It’s a hilarious movie. I could watch it more than once, and I’m sure I would be laughing nonetheless. It’s a kids’ movie, but there are some jokes that only you will laugh about, and that what makes it so enjoyable to watch.

(Not so) Subtle Criticisms

The whole movie has an enormous amount of good characters. Some are nice guys, and some are terrible and mean. The usual for a kids movie, right? I believe Zootopia went a bit farther.

The criticism goes from the prejudice inside the police because of Judy’s delicate appearance, to the corruption and abuse of a power position showed by Bellwether.

However, for me, the most amazing ones were the sloths. I couldn’t stop laughing, as well as getting annoyed by how slow they were. Very close to many real public departments, I must admit.

Yes, you can. If you fight for it.

What I like the most about the general story is the fact that the message is not simply “you can be anything” or “you can do anything you want”. The main character doesn’t have an easy life and her dream isn’t as amazing as she thought it would be. Judy has to work very hard, even harder than other people to get where she wants.

In my opinion, this is the most important lesson. Especially in these days where kids aren’t taught that yes, they can do and be anything… with effort! Lots of work and effort, some sacrifices even.

Zootopia is a very interesting movie, and I’m waiting for my little girl to grow up a little bit more, so I can show it to her.

However, as a psychologist, I’m usually quite curious in regards to criminals and their minds; and one of these days I started watching this documentary on Netflix . Taking into consideration the kind of thing this is, I can’t say I ‘liked’ it. I mean what you see in there is nothing to like, but I was rather terrified, which is probably the usual response. Nonetheless, it was definitely a good documentary. The eyes of a killer Everything displayed in this story was terrible. The descriptions, Bundy’s posture, everything seemed like some sort of horror show, putting into perspective what we may consider to be lucky or unlucky in this life. Before I even start watching it, I read somewhere that this was the kind of thing you shouldn’t watch alone. Sounds accurate right now. At the time, and considering my, mostly academic, experience, I didn’t think that this could actually be so upsetting.
