Zoomania+

Zootopia+ is a short spin-off series of Disney's Zootopia, one of my favourite animated films. In this series, every episode focuses on different characters who were there in the small part of the film. The thing I liked the most here is the crossover scenes with the movie, loved the smart writing.

All the things were simultaneously happening, it was so good to watch. Another thing I liked here is that every episode is genre specific. Episode 4 is my favourite, others were enjoyable too. Hope to see more of like this in future. I am always ready to watch anything in the world of Zootopia.

Available on Disney+ Hotstar.

Zootopia+ is presented in a similar format to I Am Groot which came out a little over 3 months ago, after seeing them execute that and since I'm a huge Zootopia fan I was excited for this, but I finished it ultimately feeling like I wasted my time.

Zootopia+ is the definition of hit or miss, literally only half of these shorts were worth watching, the dance episode, the dinner episode, and the wedding episode were all terribly disappointing and even the actually good episodes felt like they had something missing.

I know for a fact young kids, aka the target audience, will enjoy this, but it just wasn't my cup of tea.

Zootopia+(2022-) is a series my daughter and I recently watched on Disney+. The series is made up of short stories of the animals that reside in the town of Zootopia+. They all have different goals, ambitions and objectives and they're also all different shapes and sizes. We watch as the animals work to overcome various obstacles to complete various tasks.

This series is codirected by Trent Correy (Once Upon a Snowman) and Josie Trinidad and contains the voices of John Lavelle (Selma), Katie Lowes (Scandal), Joey Lawrence (Blossom), Alan Tudyk (A Knight's Tale) and Idris Elba (The Losers).

The animation for this series is absolutely out of this world. The depiction of the characters, universe and circumstances is amazing. Theres also great use of colors and shadows. There's some good lessons sprinkled in throughout the episodes and some fun humor too. The Godfather episode was me favorite and the Cheetah episode was hilarious. I do wish the episodes were longer than 10 minutes.

Overall, this is definitely a worthwhile series that is fun for the entire family. I would score this an 8/10 and strongly recommend it.

If you love Zootopia, this is absolute essential viewing!

The animation, soundtrack and voice acting are on-point, and the writing is heartwarming, fun, and hilarious!

I love that these shorts fill-in little bits of plot from the film, it's really great. I'm going to have anew perspective on the movie when I rewatch it :-)

My only issue is that there are only six episodes! Obviously it takes a lot of time, effort and money to make these as high-quality as the film, but all-the-same, when I was done it was a bit like "oh... where's the rest?" which is a real shame. Still, I can see myself watching this multiple times :-)

Highly recommended for established Zootopia fans. Heck, I think random viewers could still enjoy it!

For a world as rich and expansive as the one set up in Zootopia, it's a shame that we only got 6 ten-minute shorts in this TV series. It felt like there could have been much more to develop. However, what was here was at least enjoyable. I think I enjoyed the Godfather episode the best because it provided great backstory for one of the best side-characters in the original film. It is sort of a shame there wasn't more to see of Judy and Nick, although let's hope they save all that for a proper sequel that I'm praying will be announced soon. So, overall, I enjoyed this and it had some very funny moments, but this world created by the original film deserved a little more than an anthology.
