Walt Disney is known for bringing some of the best animation ever and ‘Zootopia’ is a pleasure to watch. The animation is bright and lively with sharp visuals, crisp dialogue and great detail in every frame. Kids will obviously love all the animal characters, the cute police officer and her friends. The brilliant colors thrown all over the place add to the storyline with a message for the young and old alike in a fast and funny way to keep younger viewers entertained.

Our heroine is Judy, a rabbit from farming country who dreams of being a big-city cop in Zootopia, where the motto is, “anyone can be anything.” While her parents try to dissuade her from leaving for the big city, Judy has her heart on being a cop for her entire life. No tiny rabbit has ever been able to pass the physical requirements to earn a badge, that is, until Judy shows her superiors at the Academy the determination she has for the job.

On her very first day at the head office, she is treated with disrespect by her commanding officer Chief Bogo who assigns her to man the parking slots in the city. While she does a good job on it, one day she overhears Mrs. Otterton begging Bogo not to give up on searching for her missing husband. Judy volunteers for the assignment claiming she can find her missing husband, but Bogo won’t have her play any role in it. He finally makes a deal with Judy and gives her 48 hours to do the job or she is out of the force. For assistance, Judy latches onto a fast-talking fox Nick who's framed for a crime he didn't commit. Judy blackmails him into a trap and he’s forced to team up with her.

While on her job Judy eventually locates Mr. Otterton, but unearths a big scam that shakes the whole city. Only Judy and Nick can solve it. Watch this wonderful presentation.
