John Cleese, Alec Baldwin, Michael Madsen, Anjelica Huston, Heidi Klum, James Franco, Laurie Holden, Jeremy Renner, and Omar Sy in Arctic Dogs : Mission polaire (2019)

Swifty the Arctic Fox (Jeremy Renner) works in the mailroom of the Arctic Blast Delivery Service but dreams of one day becoming a Top Dog (the Arctic's star husky courier). To prove himself worthy of the Top Dog role, Swifty secretly commandeers one of the sleds and delivers a mysterious package to a secret location. He stumbles upon a hidden fortress, where he comes face to face with Otto Von Walrus (John Cleese), a blubbery evil genius, who walks around on mechanical legs and commands a loyal army of oddly polite puffin henchmen. Swifty soon discovers Otto Von Walrus' plan to drill beneath Arctic surface to unleash enough ancient gas to melt the Arctic, in order to reign as the world's supreme leader. Now, Swifty has to enlist the help of his friends: PB (Alec Baldwin), an introverted polar bear, Lemmy (James Franco), a scatterbrained albatross, Jade Fox (Heidi Klum), a tough as nails mechanic, Leopold (Omar Sy) and Bertha (Heidi Klum), two conspiracy theorist otters and Magda (Anjelica Huston), the curmudgeonly boss. This ragtag group of Arctic misfits has to band together to stop Otto Von Walrus' sinister plans and save the day.

A Netflix Show About Amazon?

Weird that there were two movies in the same year that dealt with mail service in the Arctic. This was cute, but we liked Klaus better. Is the triumph of Amazon making logistics and delivery cool again?

Funny movie for kids and adults alike

I don't understand the low scores. Just watched it over Easter 2020 weekend with the whole COVID fiasco. In any case, I enjoyed it watching it with my wife. And we don't have kids!! I'll definitely watch it again with my nieces and nephews. I love animated movies with a Winter theme. Good acting, great voice overs, and amazing animation. Some great jokes, too!! Solid 8/10 for me.

Cute!

My kid loved it which is what matters. It starts off pretty slow but it is overall a decent movie for kids. Maybe not great for adults as well but whatever.

Underrated Classic For Kids

I don't see all the hate for this one. Then again, I am a child at heart, and seeing how children are the target audience for this film, I got it on DVD.

Telling the tale of Swifty, an arctic fox who works at the mailroom of the Arctic Blast Delivery Service, who dreams of being a Top Dog, one of the company's husky couriers. After his boss tells him he is a fox, not a dog, he decides to prove himself when his best friend, Jade Fox, has a package that needs delivered. However, the receiver is Otto Von Walrus, who is plotting to melt the Arctic. Now he must get his friends together to stop them.

Basically, this film is obviously aimed at kids or those who are kids at heart, because the film teaches two morals: follow your dreams, no matter what anyone says, and always be yourself. The characters are likable, and have a lot of development, and the music is also good.

Meh

Watched it with my 5 year old. A little intense for him in some parts, story makes no sense, but my kid enjoyed.

Quotes
PB: [after pulling Swifty out of the snow pile] Swifty? What are you doing here so early?
Swifty: I lost... my pound.
PB: What pound?
Swifty: The pound I gained to hit the twenty pound minimum to pull the top dog sled!
PB: Well you can't fight your metabolism.
Swifty: I can and I will put to the test, I'm going to deliver my best, Come on!
PB: Swifty, how have I put this repeatably in the past.
Swifty: Look out!
PB: Oh yes, deliveries have only ever been made by dogs, and you are not a dog.
Swifty: What!
PB: You are a small arctic fox who was not meant to pull a giant sled with even giant-er packages on it. Are you hearing me?
Swifty: What? Yeah every word, come on buddy we've got a pound of fun. Let's go!
