Hoppers is an animated science fiction comedy from Pixar. It follows an animal lover, who unravels the mysteries of the animal kingdom after transferring her consciousness to a robot that allows her to communicate with animals. Directed by Daniel Chong (who began his career by interning at Cartoon Network Studios), audiences had lukewarm expectations for Hoppers, because the trailers were quite bland. As such, everyone who watched the film was surprised by how much they loved it (93 per cent critic rating, 94 per cent audience score). Despite the slow pace in the first half, critics have praised the solid humour, insightful narrative, edgy plot, and satisfying conclusion. You can watch the movie in cinemas today. mbjjnr8@gmail.com
