Summary:
Zootopia is an animated movie by Walt Disney animation studies. The officer Judy Hops decides to try out for the police force which has been her dream ever since she was young. She soon gets hired in the police force in the big city Zootopia which is a very stereotypical city amongst different types of animals. The city’s past involved predators such as foxes, wolves, hunting small animals like bunnies, but now in the present time of this city; all animals are equal. Officer Judy is given a case study of missing animals and eventually teams up with Nick Wilde–a fox–to solve this mystery. Together they solve Zootopia’s greatest mystery.

Review:
In my free time I really like to just sit down and relax to a good movie. Although Zootopia came out a while back, I never really intended to watch it until now because I didn’t know what else to watch. As the movie started Judy started out struggling because of how tiny she was, but the amount of courage she has really goes to show a valuable lesson “when you work hard you can achieve anything”. Because of how determined she is, she initially wasn’t even assigned for this mystery, she was just a ticket officer. Once she got the opportunity to solve this case she got right to work with no hesitation because of how hard she has to work just to show she is a strong police officer for her size. Judy’s friendship with Nick is so adorable and it really ties you to the screen. Overall, Judy’s growth of character really ties this movie together with also showing the importance of friendship, trust and equality.
