Hoppers is Hilarious, Heartwarming Fun for All

An upside down shot  at the top coupled with the image of a water melting school color painting, as the imagery takes on a journey. listening to nature to clam the noise of the outside world are just a few of the reasons this animated treat fires on all cylinders. Not to the mention the theme of  love and family while proving family isn’t limited to those who are blood related.

The person we trust the most outside of our parents are more often than not our grandparents – especially grandmothers.  Their trust and belief is unconditional and vice versa.  Once we go outside the family trust circle, relationships can become challenging and life long friends sometimes betray trust while moving on to the next.  That unexpected betrayal can feel hateful and hurtful and leaving one wondering if they might ever be able to trust again

However, in some instances, trust is like a dam, it’s gonna leak sometimes and you just have to find a way to patch it up. The burning question is whether or not it is worth the effort as many are only meant to just be a reason, a season or a lifetime.

Mabel Tanaka (Piper Curda), a fiery and passionate animal-lover, has a deep personal connection to the serenity of the glade she’d often visit with her grandmother. However, when she discovers the glade is under threat, thanks to local mayor Jerry Generazzo (Jon Hamm), an outraged Mabel searches for ways to take action.

Learning that her college professor, Dr. Sam (Kathy Najimy), and her colleagues have figured out how to “hop” human consciousness into lifelike robotic animals and communicate directly with wildlife. Mabel jumps at the chance to use the top-secret technology for her mission and “hops” her mind into the body of a robotic beaver.

While exploring the many wonders of the animal kingdom as a beaver, Mabel meets a host of new animal friends, including King George (Bobby Moynihan), the leader of the pond and king of the mammals. With his assistance, Mabel works tirelessly to unite the entire animal kingdom as the wild and unexpected comedy adventure unfolds.

Hoppers may well be one of the best Pixar films to date with themes that  will resonate with humans of all ages, creeds and colors proving that despite our differences, we can still come together with understanding and respect if we just give one another a chance. Last and certainly not least,  lessons learned from sage loved ones will pierce one’s core of humanity making themselves and every life force they encounter better for being in each other’s orbit – if only for a little while
