Review Time

Warning: there is flashing effects/colourful effects/shooting/burning/vehicle crashing/shooting/electrocution/environmental/bodily functions

Crash landing on this planet:  ROZZUM unit 7134/"Roz" [voiced by Lupita Nyong'o:] she is a robot and product of Universal Dynamics; tech companies, she rushes around trying to assist these creatures on this planet and this is their story.

Generally speaking: the framework and pacing of this 102 minutes film is good; it settles down to the task and get on with it.

Art, comedy and action; the art is very clear to see as they have created a world of not only visual representation be it when Roz disturbs these possibly and easily thousands of I am going to say butterflies, obviously I am aware I could be wrong, but you will know it when you see it and we are absolutely treated to a wash of colours and nature or later on when this harsh winter sets in. Roz at first crashing on this location; goes around asking these animals if they need any assistance and of course it doesn't exactly go according to plan, I mean when you have this big robot running towards you, okay being friendly but as you can imagine to animals this can be frightening so of course these animals follow their natural instincts and then later on we have all that fun with her learning to raise other name/Brightbill; [Youngers voiced by Boone Storme/Older voiced by  Kit Connor:] he is an orphan  runt Canada goose that needs to learn to my skills to you can leave this place when it is time to do so and alongside Fink [voiced by Pedro Pascal:] he is a a red fox that has tried many times to eat, that is now trying to help with Brightbill's life skills training which includes him booting Brightbill into water to get him to swim, but at least Fink would be a great kicker in the NFL or reaching an arrangement with Thunderbolt [voiced by Ving Rhames:] he is peregrine falcon which is a master of the skies. Roz in some way tries to be a launchpad/runway for Brightbill. Then much later on Roz tries to save this big Bear from the cold; his name is Thorn [voiced by Mark Hamill:] he is a bear of the grisly variety that as you can guess by his being, he isn't too friendly to outsiders

Character developments and voice performances; because a little bit of research which I will discuss in my final section, this character types follow what they should follow from the perspective of bases covered so they can build on them in the future. But however that doesn't mean that the voice performances follow that completely as well; meaning they make their voice performances very much a part of their characters, so hypothetically speaking if there was to be a sequel they would have to get these performers signed up again or activate the sequel stipulation if there is one in their current contract or who knows they could already be signed up to do multiple films. Because with character developments and simultaneously with the voice performances they have already cultivated a situation where the cast of voice performances are their characters as there is really smooth and flexible chemistry throughout these characters and their voice performances.

This film receives: 10/10, this film is top-notch entertainment; for it is in-depth colour palette, simple yet effective storyline and its variety of characters/voice performances; this project will be a future classic and as this is from a series of books, I should imagine they would like to do the whole lot eventually; disclaimer this is based on opinion makers in with a little bit of fact meaning it does actually come from a series of books with the same name and based on a little bit of research there is an indication that there will be a sequel. I like using wording such as indication just in case something changes in the meantime that I don't see coming and yes in one way or another there is some extra bits and a scene right at the end of the ending credits. But I digress this film also has some awards accredited to its name such as; 2 Winners San Sebastián International Film Festival 2024 and Heartland Film 2024 Truly Moving Picture Award Truly Moving Picture Award Chris Sanders (director)
