There are enough under-the-radar subtleties, rendered with a refreshing lack of smart-aleckiness, to make Zootopia feel current and fresh. It's a modest, unassuming entertainment that's motored by a sly sensibility.
Zootopia excels on so many levels that it stands with the finest of the Disney classics.
"Zootopia," like its heroine, is zesty, bright, and breakneck, with chase scenes and well-tuned gags where you half expect songs to be.
There's a lot here for kids to like and nearly as much to keep parents from fidgeting.
In many ways a conventional movie, but it unfolds with so much wit, panache, and visual ingenuity that it outstrips many a more high-concept film.
What saves this big-budget cartoon behemoth is its modest, old-fashioned storytelling.
Audience Reviews for Zootopia
A little wonder of an animated film that refuses to stick to characters constantly doing slapstick, singing or dancing but instead tells a coherent cop buddy story with a pretty deep underlying meaning. Of course there is comedy and cuteness but the overall plot and the themes are surprisingly serious, which makes the film just as enjoyable for adults as for kids. The animation is gorgeous, especially the initial train ride is a cinematic wonder. A surprising, lovable, sweet and smart adventure for young and old.

I may be the last person on the planet to have finally watched Zootopia, Disney's first quarter hit of the year, and I am very glad that I did. I was expecting something cute with the premise of a plucky rabbit (voiced winningly by Ginnfer Goodwin) joining forces with a wily grifter fox (Jason Bateman) in the big animal metropolis, but what I wasn't expecting was a fully thought out and stupendously imaginative world and a message that is just as thought out and pertinent. The anthropomorphic animal land is filled with colorful locations and plenty of amusing characters. It's highly amusing just to sit back and watch. I knew I was in for something radically different and dare I say more ambitious when there was an N-word approximation joke within the first ten minutes. This was not a moving to be taken lying down. My attention was rewarded with an engaging relationship between the two leads, careful plotting, endlessly clever asides without relying upon an inordinate amount of pop-culture references, and ultimately a noble and relevant message about the power of inclusion, tolerance, and rejecting prejudice. The larger metaphor seems slightly muddied by the late reveal of who is behind the conspiracy to make the animals go feral, but I wouldn't say it undercuts the film's power. The characters charmed me and I was happy that each ecosystem factored into the story in fun and interesting ways. There are plenty of payoffs distributed throughout the movie to make it even more rewarding. Zootopia is a funny, entertaining, heartfelt, and immersive movie with great characters and a world I'd like to explore again. Given its billion-dollar success, I imagine a return trip will be in short order and we should all be thankful. Something this spry and creative needs to be appreciated. Nate's Grade: A

"Zootopia" is a menagerie of delights with each exhibit seeming more excellently crafted than the last. This is the best Disney animated film since "Beauty and The Beast".
