In Disney and Pixar's all-new feature film "Hoppers," scientists have discovered how to "hop" human consciousness into lifelike robotic animals, allowing people to communicate with animals as animals! The adventure introduces Mabel, an animal lover who seizes an opportunity to use the technology, uncovering mysteries within the animal world that are beyond anything she could have imagined.

Critics Consensus

An eager beaver for endearment that has the charm to back it up, Hoppers is a sprightly riot that might just be the funniest entry in the Pixar canon yet.

Audience Says

Hop, hop, hop to Hoppers -- a peak return for Pixar that delivers an absurdly cute and jubilant story for kids, adults, and animal lovers alike.

4/5

[The film's] serious side is so well camouflaged by the happy absurdities flitting around on its surface that it could be selling snake oil and you wouldn’t mind.

4/5

Hoppers features big set-pieces of hijinks and shenanigans (Flying whales! Melting robot faces!) and it is a laugh riot that keeps the energy level right up there.

It’s an improvement on Elio, and still better than most of the competition.

4/5

Part-eco-warrior fantasy, part-love letter to the good in people, part-animals-go-wild comedy, Hoppers has a lot to say, which it says in between manic bursts of hyperactive insanity. In other words, it's exactly the kind of film that Pixar does so well.

"Hoppers," directed by Daniel Chong and with a screenplay from Jesse Andrews, is ... the wackiest movie to come out of Pixar lately – and that strangeness is all to its credit.

B

Visually inventive, irreverent, and easily one of the funnier Pixar movies. At the same time it seems almost pathologically desperate to water-down its own environmental message.

A sweet and fun movie with gorgeous visuals and characters that have a lot of heart. A must watch for nature and animal lovers. It reminds us silly humans that we're all part of the same pond and to take care of every one and every thing in it.
