Zootopia

In a metropolis overflowing with personified animals, an overachieving, small-town bunny aims to be the first hare on the city's police and finds adversity at every turn. Soon, she finds herself teaming with a conniving and equally ostracized fox in a case that has greater and more shadowy implications. I'm not really sure why the praise for this has been elevated compared to any of the other cookie cutter talking animalized CGI animated flicks of the last couple decades. Pretty run of the mill and geared exclusively to kids with a simplistic liberal message. Idris Elba shines in another animated voice performance.
