What if you could talk to animals and understand what they're saying? In Disney and Pixar's all-new feature film "Hoppers," scientists have discovered how to "hop" human consciousness into lifelike robotic animals, allowing people to communicate with animals as animals! The adventure introduces Mabel, an animal lover who seizes an opportunity to use the technology, uncovering mysteries within the animal world that are beyond anything she could have imagined.

Critics Consensus

An eager beaver for endearment that has the charm to back it up, Hoppers is a sprightly riot that might just be the funniest entry in the Pixar canon yet.

Audience Says

Hop, hop, hop to Hoppers -- a peak return for Pixar that delivers an absurdly cute and jubilant story for kids, adults, and animal lovers alike.

The movie, in actuality, is refreshingly mordant about what might really happen if prey and predators were to try banding together: Their efforts would immediately devolve into a despairing, even political quagmire.

[The film's] serious side is so well camouflaged by the happy absurdities flitting around on its surface that it could be selling snake oil and you wouldn’t mind.

4/5

Hoppers features big set-pieces of hijinks and shenanigans (Flying whales! Melting robot faces!) and it is a laugh riot that keeps the energy level right up there.

Before it lets the air out of itself, Hoppers is frequently hilarious.

Some likeable characters, a decent amount of good jokes, and a creatively affective lesson make this a solid recommendation.

4/5

Part-eco-warrior fantasy, part-love letter to the good in people, part-animals-go-wild comedy, Hoppers has a lot to say, which it says in between manic bursts of hyperactive insanity. In other words, it's exactly the kind of film that Pixar does so well.

The music at the end was super catchy, and the animals were super cute! I didn’t like how the conflict kept going on and on and on, but the ending was nice

Loved the comedy, easy to understand for 3 year olds. Disliked the amount of times they refer to death. A few areas at the end that were a bit dark.

One of the most fun Pixar films in a while. Basic premise is clearly a rip off of Avatar (which they acknowledge in the film 😀) but it’s very funny and original and there’s actual villains and conflict that has been missing from a lot of Disney features lately.
