Wild Robot is one of the best animated family movies I’ve ever see.

I watch quite a few kids movies as a dad. This one blew me away. Story is amazing, action is amazing, and the animation is unique (to me). It’s almost like the characters are in watercolors. It’s definitely up there with the best Pixar movies.

It was great, but it would have been better if she told Brightbill "You can call me Mom" at the end instead of Roz.

Really good movie.

Haha as a dad approaching 40 i feel like there are movies that get overlooked because they arent for "us".

How to train your Dragon is a movie I completely missed until 1 day i randomly cut it on and realized it was better than a lot of the stuff that has been released in the last decade.

I thought the spider-man: miles morales movies would be childlike but they are actually just really good animated movies

My youngest read the books for school in elementary, so she was super excited to see it.

Good movie, although she did critique it because apparently they changed some things from the books. Had to let her know that she is in for a lifetime of that since she likes to read.

The studio ghibli movies blow me away as a dad watching them with my girls. Spirited away straight up a film. Wild robot was a nice surprise

well I had the opportunity. She and my boys watched it. I just went to be thinking it was just a run of the mill kids movie.

The scene when the animals all howl together in support of Roz hit me in the feels

Same here. My youngest read all the book and was crazy excited when the movie was announced. I'm not sure she even blinked during the movie. She and I had to wait until the end of the credits for a 'post credit' scene...

Alright, I put it on at work while I was doing some mundane task. It is a great movie. The howling part got me, and the end when she picked up the goose and said you can call me Roz....


Great Movie

I noticed that too. I thought it added a very cool feature to the movie.

My wife watched it with our new baby and balled her eyes out.

I watched it with them and it was good. I liked the bear. The possums were funny. It had an old school wholesome vibe, but with updgraded animation.
