    Zootopia rip-off - NO! In the same world as - YES!!

    I can understand WHY it gets compared to Zootopia - it's in the same world, definitely. But why can't there be more than one bunny and more than one 'cool' lead character - the joke with the cat is he's not as good as he thinks he is in the beginning, but he sure redeems himself by the end!

    The animal animation was a LEETLE clunky but the backgrounds are gorgeous. They're worth watching the movie for. I loved the city, the machinery, the cars and the spheres in the Ecodome towards the end of the film, the details of the plants and flowers, whoever did the backgrounds put every bit of him/herself into it and the results really show. They're lovely!

    The characters are a LEETLE 2-D but hey - it's a kid's movie. It's not trying to be sophisticated like Zootopia, it's trying to be fun and it really succeeds. The flow of the plot could have been pulled together somewhat but all the parts were there. I loved the snake/dragon, but I wish they'd used him more. Maybe as an ongoing character with the blue cat and Hector the Rat? But that's a sorta minor thing - I could've happily watched everyday life in the city and in the world for 90 minutes and not had any other plot at all, if it had been an openworld video game I'd just happily live within it all. THAT'S where this film scores - its world is gorgeous.

    Y'know - if there was a choice between making a Zootopia sequel or a Spycies sequel, I'd make a Spycies 2 movie like an old-fashioned, hard-boiled-detective movie starring the cat and the rabbit, with Hector doing the Q-from-James-Bond thing with all the gadgets. Just to give the background team free rein to let the cat explore every inch of that lovely city, and the ecospheres. Did I enjoy it? Plot clunkinesses aside, yes, every moment of it and I was just watching it by myself.

    Don't compare it to anything. Take it for what it is, its own movie, as much a 'rip off' of Zootopia as The Mandalorian is a 'rip off' of Star Wars. They're both set in pre-created worlds, yet they're both their own beings. You'll be glad you saw this world, I know I was.

    Chris.

    Unfortunately, a Hollywood influence!

    I didn't think American liberal activists could be responsible for ruining a China/France production.

    This started off so well, then started to show signs of social agenda indoctrination and messages, instead of a decent plot. Ridiculously blaming global warming for the extinction of mammoths, is the whole movie.

    Hopefully, the next one they create will have writers for ideas, not activists.

    Worth the watch, ignore the low reviews

    As soon some people hear that its chinese, they really get a negative attitude towards it. But to my suprise i actually watched this movie cause i was unable to change my movie at the time. Unbelievable i really enjoyed the movie , original story

    Beautiful animated movie.

    I dont get how people call this a rip off from a well kown american studio animated movie (just because protagonists are animals and a rabbit that looks similar to that movie?) , You are over reacting. Animation is nice , movie its funny and has a nice story to it. Really enjoyed it and highly recommend it. Not only usa can do nice animated movies France , china , spain , germany has nice nice animated movies with a much much lower buget than usa productions. Tale your head out of the "sand" and dont act like a brainwashed nation.

    A copy of Zootopia, and a bad one too

    China... they do some things very good (like food, trains and building skyscrapers), but one thing they suck at, is copying things... This is one of those examples.

    Where Zootopia is a 10/10 animation movie, this is only a 4/10. A poor attempt, with inferior animation, bad voice acting, bad 'jokes' and a predictable plot. Maybe they should stick to food, or just hire a better EVERYTHING next time they think about making a movie.
