Review without knowing of the book series or what to expect.
First off I want to say that when I first saw the trailer on prime, my mind immediately thought of a childrenโs movie, I had the impression from what was shown that a robot was defective and had been thrown into the wild and somehow made connections with animals. Itโs rare now that I become intrigued by an animated movie given itโs been a long time in my adult years one that Iโve been interested in watching something like this, but what hooked me immediately was when one robot says to another โI feel fine.โ - โYou shouldnโt FEEL anything at allโ it was like bam what is this? now I have to watch it.
After watching the movie, I was surprised to find that this movie trailer completely gave me a different narrative impression from the actual movie and yet, it was better than what my mind had come up with. I loved the tiny adult jokes made in the film to keep us adults laughing over the kids, that was appreciated and I was pleasantly surprised with how much the film had me laughing. The entire plot of the film is magnificent and beautiful, it gives you real relatable moments and the ending will have you happy sobbing but wanting more. If you want to see a beautifully, respectful, edge of your seat, tear jerker, I would recommend The Wild Robot for you.
