THE WILD ROBOT

One of the most memorable children's books by Peter Brown comes to life from the folks who gave you Shrek, Madagascar, and Kung Fu Panda. Time to discover what it means to be...wild.

THE WILD ROBOT

THE WILD ROBOT, a movie adaptation of a bestselling book by Peter Brown, is the latest masterpiece from DreamWorks Animation. It features an all-star ensemble who lend their voices to this animated movie such as Lupita Nyong'o, The Mandalorian actor Pedro Pascal, Bill Nighy, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice's Catherine O'Hara, Kit Connor, and Stephanie Hsu.

This movie centers on the life of a robot called ROZZUM 7134, "Roz" for short, who got stranded on a mysterious island. Feared by its inhabitants, Roz began caring for a newly hatched gosling named Brightbill. She later joined forces with Fink, a calm but questionable fox with a rather selfish attitude to help nurture the gosling and mature. Struggling about her true purpose, Roz discovers the meaning of home, family, and freedom within the wilderness.

Another calm and mindful robot movie since WALL-E, THE WILD ROBOT showcases the true meaning of home, family, and freedom. The bedazzling visuals, music, and sound are easily overshadowed by the storytelling that proves even a steel-bodied mechanical wanderer can embrace its wild side. Contrary to every robot character we know, it CAN experience love.

This is by no means one of the must-watch movies of the Fall Season. With its heartwarming storytelling and stunning visuals, THE WILD ROBOT is as WILD as it gets. Nature calls.
