Judy Hopps (Ginnifer Goodwin) and Nick Wilde (Jason Bateman) return as partners in the Zootopia Police Department. They discover that there might be a snake in Zootopia—and then that the fear and hatred of reptiles in the city might not be the fault of the reptiles. It’s a breakneck chase to clear the name of all reptiles before Judy and Nick get tossed off the ZPD for being in league with the snake. It deepens a world that was already imaginative, beautiful, and mirrors our own world in some surprising ways. It currently has a 95% Tomatometer on Rotten Tomatoes.
“A genuine crowd-pleaser. The visuals remain dazzling, Michael Giacchino’s score is energetic, and the mystery is genuinely compelling.” -Linda Marric, HeyUGuys
“Never does the film feel like it’s beating you over the head with its morals, but you might leave the theatre feeling a little better about the world we live in than you did when you arrived.” -Aisling Murphy, Globe and Mail
“This sequel to 2016’s smash hit Oscar-winning animated film proves more than worth the lengthy wait, knocking it out of the park with its dazzling visuals, sophisticated humor and doses of genuine emotion.” -Frank Scheck, The Hollywood Reporter
“It’s also got the kind of heart that has too long seemed to be missing from other Disney animated offerings. There’s a weight to the messaging of the film. There’s real care behind the bond between Nick and Judy.” -Kate Erbland, IndieWire
“These movies are comedies first and crime-film homages second, but it’s their tertiary value as social commentary that makes the franchise so indispensable: Behind the laughs are teachable moments.” -Peter Debruge, Variety
Zootopia 2 opens at The Clyde on Friday, December 26, and plays Friday, Saturday, and Monday at 7:30 plus Sunday at 2:00 for two weeks running.
