The new animated film “Zootopia” is a movie circling around prey and predators living in harmony. Almost.

The movie follows the story of a hopeful bunny rabbit dreaming to be a police officer. When the world tries to destroy her dreams, Judy Hobbes is placed in the city district of Zootopia — The New York of “Zootopia.”

‘Hop’ on for a train ride as Hobbes tries to get identified as a real cop and not just a fluffy harmless bunny. With the help of Nick Wilde, a fugitive con artist fox, helping her unfold the case and trying to overcome stereotypes.

As a writer from “Gizmodo” publication described it, “[‘Zootopia’ is] one of the best Disney animated film since ‘The Lion King.’”

Aside from an accurate portrayal of the Department of Motor Vehicles, “Zootopia” carries many themes of self-doubt, under appreciation and “you-can-do-it” attitudes: just like real life.

When a demeaning buffalo chief fills her head with her incapabilities, she lands a case with no leads and no witnesses — a case all the big bad cops didn’t look at for two weeks. Hobbes unfolds the case, finding lead after lead. After seeking out every angle possible, Hobbes uncovers the case in the two-day limit she’s given, and turns a missing animal case into a bigger case where animals turn savage.  

With 8.4 stars out of 10, according to IMDB, “Zootopia” can be your classic Disney movie: kick starting with feelings of hopes, climaxing to feelings of hopelessness, and even isolation, and ending up with a startling resolution to fix what seemed to be broken.

Segregation between prey and predators can be used as a metaphor to what segregation is like in our world. The movie states problems we undergo in a subtle way, such as distrust, self-doubt and quick judgment, which is referenced throughout. The movie comes full circle with an ending that answers an unasked question in the beginning.

It has its ups and downs, but I give “Zootopia” four paws up.
