The Wild Robot

'The Wild Robot' is b-e-a-utiful. It all makes for a wholesome 102 minutes, which features not only an endearing story but also fair laughs and mighty heart - it hit me in the feels a fair few times. The animation is splendid, while the music and pacing are good factors too. I did like the moments of relative darkness, in terms of a few jokes and bits that you wouldn't usually see in a flick of this type. As for the cast, Lupita Nyong'o, Pedro Pascal and Kit Connor are all ace, while the likes of Bill Nighy, Stephanie Hsu and Ving Rhames turn out to be solid supports. There isn't much more to note, simply put: I enjoyed this. A film worthy of hype.

I found myself cleaning my glasses multiple times throughout the movie—not because they were dirty, but because of the overwhelming emotional impact. Truly, this film brought tears to my eyes. Without a doubt, this is one of the finest animated movies in years. DreamWorks has delivered a masterpiece that resonates deeply. It's impossible not to empathize with the story and characters as they unfold so brilliantly on screen. Prepare yourself for an emotional journey that hits like a ton of bricks. The attention to detail is remarkable. I was particularly impressed by the animation style, especially the distinct visual approach tailored to some characters. This creative choice truly makes them shine and adds depth to the storytelling. That said, not every scene felt essential. A few moments seemed like unnecessary attempts to inject action into a narrative that didn't need it. These segments, while visually engaging, slightly detracted from the overall flow of an otherwise exceptional film.

Dreamworks at its best!!!! 😍😭❤️
