ZOOTOPIA

Byron Howard, Rich Moore, Jared Bush United States, 2016
The conventions of police procedurals and gangster cinema to which Zootopia pays obvious homage are turned delightfully on their head... The larger canvas of the film, however, is a fascinating muddle.

Disney's CG cartoon Zootropolis is co-directed by Byron Howard and Rich Moore. The latter was also responsible for the studio's Wreck-It Ralph (2012), and the new film is in the same mould – another witty, inventive comedy-adventure, this time set in a city where animals have evolved intelligence and live side by side, though with residual tensions between predators and herbivores.

Worthy messages come thick and fast in Zootropolis, a skilful but oppressively didactic Disney cartoon which takes the studio's sense of social responsibility (these are the people who refused to show Walt Disney smoking in Saving Mr. Banks) to a new high.

Is it too much to ask that a film that wears its noble intentions like a jangling neck collar be able to withstand scrutiny? If "Zootopia" were a bit vaguer, or perhaps dumber and less pleased with itself, it might have been a classic, albeit of a very different, less reputable sort. As-is, it's a goodhearted, handsomely executed film that doesn't add up in the way it wants to.

Even if the movie's overarching message to humans is an obvious one—people of all races need to learn to live in harmony—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 is an exhilaratingly off-balance epic comedy in cartoon form... Happily, even when the movie gets warm and fuzzy, its zany framework and nonstop inventiveness—and its cheeky sensibility—keep it from going mushy.

Visually, there's an incredible amount of detail to take in, as the titular city is richly imagined as the settings of Metropolis, Blade Runner, Brazil, and other such fantastical cinematic municipalities. In the end, though, it's the film's nuanced take on race and identity that stays in the memory—most notably the way it's willing to complicate its idealism by honestly acknowledging the difficulties in trying to achieve an equal society.
