Hello Cinephiles,
Today we’re talking about the 2026 film Hoppers.
Story
The first three quarters of the movie felt a lot like an older environmental movie (Fern Gully etc.) but the last part added a lot to the message and was something I hadn’t seen before.
Score: 1
Characters
Everyone does a great job acting and the characters are good. I found the main character acted younger than her age and the maniacal Titus was a little on the nose.
Score: 0.5
Dialogue
There’s a lot of great quotes and a lot of resonating messages. The kindness and love shown by George is wonderful and refreshing.
Score: 1
Visuals and Music
The animation is stunning and the use of the camera is excellent. I really appreciate the characters’ changes depending on who is perceiving them.
Score: 1
Fun
There are some laugh out loud moments and lots of good stuff in this movie. The kids loved it and so did the adults.
Score: 1
Overall
Another excellent story from Pixar that will make you laugh and cry in turn. The message of co-operation and seeing the best in people is deeply needed in today’s world.
Final Score: 4.5 Stars out of 5
