Zootopia (released as Zootropolis in some European countries) is a 2016 American 3D computer-animated buddy cop comedy adventure[7] film produced by Walt Disney Animation Studios and released by Walt Disney Pictures. It is the 55th animated feature in the Walt Disney Animated Classics series. The film is directed by Byron Howard and Rich Moore, co-directed by Jared Bush, and stars the voices of Ginnifer Goodwin, Jason Bateman, Idris Elba, Jenny Slate, Nate Torrence, Tommy Chong, J. K. Simmons, Octavia Spencer, Alan Tudyk, and Shakira. The film details the unlikely partnership between a rabbit police officer and a red fox con artist as they uncover a conspiracy that involves the disappearance of predator civilians within a mammalian metropolis.
Zootopia premiered at the El Capitan Theatre on February 17, 2016, and with general theatrical release in conventional 2D, Disney Digital 3D, RealD 3D, and IMAX 3D formats on March 4, 2016.[8][9] The film received critical acclaim, with praise directed towards the animation, voice acting, and screenplay; critics highlighted the film's topical themes of prejudice and stereotypes as timely.[10][11][12] The film opened to record-breaking box office success in several countries and has earned a worldwide gross of over $1 billion, making it the second highest-grossing film of 2016, and the twenty sixth highest-grossing film of all time.

Plot
In a world populated by anthropomorphic mammals, a rabbit from rural Bunnyburrow named Judy Hopps fulfills her childhood dream of becoming the first rabbit officer in the police department of nearby city Zootopia.
Despite graduating top of her class, Judy is excluded from handling the top-priority missing predator cases and assigned to parking duty by Chief Bogo, who doubts her potential. During one of her shifts, she meets Nick Wilde and Finnick, partners in crime.
Judy abandons her shift to arrest Duke Weaselton, a thief who stole what appear only to be onion bulbs. Upon Weaselton's apprehension, Judy is reprimanded by Bogo. When Mrs. Otterton arrives in Bogo's office pleading for someone to find her missing husband, Judy volunteers. Assistant Mayor Bellwether informs Mayor Lionheart of the news as Bogo reluctantly agrees to give her 48 hours on the condition that she resign if she fails. She finds Nick and blackmails him into assisting her with the investigation by covertly recording his confession to tax evasion.
Judy and Nick determine that Mr. Otterton was last seen entering a limousine, which is tracked to the Tundratown crime boss, Mr. Big. He informs the pair that Otterton, his florist, had "gone savage"—reverted to a feral state—and attacked his chauffeur, Manchas. Judy and Nick locate Manchas, who mentions Otterton had been yelling about "night howlers". Soon after, Manchas himself goes savage and chases the pair out of his home. Judy calls the ZPD for help, but when Bogo and his reinforcements arrive, Manchas is nowhere to be found. Bogo demands Judy's resignation, but Nick defends Judy, reminding Bogo that they still have ten more hours to solve the case. As the pair leaves, Judy learns from Nick that as a child, he was bullied for being a fox and subsequently became a con artist, believing that he would be stereotyped regardless.
Judy and Nick consult Bellwether for access to the city's traffic camera system and identify Manchas' captors as wolves, which is what Judy believes Otterton had meant by "night howlers". Judy and Nick locate Otterton and the missing predators at Cliffside Asylum. After the two witness Lionheart consulting about the predators' condition, the pair escape with the evidence, and the police swarm the area, arresting Lionheart. Bellwether is sworn in as the new Mayor.
Having developed a friendship with him, Judy asks Nick to join the Zootopia Police Department and become her partner, which Nick happily considers. However, during a press conference, Judy suggests a biological connection between savaged animals and predators, hurting Nick, who angrily walks out. Fear against predators spreads across Zootopia, protests spawn, and a guilt-ridden Judy resigns.
Judy returns to Bunnyburrow, where she learns from her former childhood bully Gideon Grey that "night howlers" are flowers that have a severe psychotropic effect on mammals. Judy returns to Zootopia, reconciles with Nick, and locates Weaselton, who confesses that the "onions" he had been collecting were night howler bulbs for a ram named Doug. The pair find Doug and his team of sheep at a secret laboratory creating a night howler serum which he has been injecting into predators via a dart gun.
Judy and Nick race to the ZPD with the evidence, but Bellwether intercepts them, attempting to take the evidence. As Judy and Nick realize that Bellwether is the mastermind behind a species-supremacist conspiracy to keep in power, they are trapped by Bellwether's accomplices. Bellwether shoots a dart at Nick, who seemingly becomes savage and attacks Judy, but it turns out the pair were acting, having swapped out the serum for blueberries, and recorded Bellwether's confession. With enough evidence, the ZPD arrest Bellwether and her accomplices for their crimes. Upon being interviewed, Lionheart denies any knowledge of Bellwether's plot, but asserts he imprisoned the savaged predators to protect the city.
Later, Judy is reinstated into the ZPD, the savaged mammals, including Otterton and Manchas, are cured by an antidote, and Nick joins the ZPD as the first fox police officer and Judy's partner.
During the credits, several characters dance at popstar Gazelle's concert. Bellwether and her accomplices watch the livestream in prison.

Production
Pre-production and animation
The project was first announced in August 2013 at that year’s D23 Expo.[30] The film, scripted by Jared Bush, was scheduled for a March 2016 release.[30][31] Prior to the official announcement, in May 2013, information about Jason Bateman's casting was leaked to the press, although little else about the film was known at the time.[14] The idea originated with Howard wanting to do a film similar to Disney’s Robin Hood, which also featured animals in anthropomorphic roles.[30] With this in mind, the city was envisioned as if animals designed it rather than humans.[30] According to Howard, Zootopia would be different from other animal anthropomorphic films, where animals either live in the natural world or in the human world. The concept, where animals live in a modern world designed by animals, was well received by chief creative officer and executive producer John Lasseter, who lifted Howard "in the air like a baby Simba" when he proposed the idea for the film.[32]
Research for the film took place in Disney's Animal Kingdom, as well as in Kenya and the San Diego Zoo Safari Park, where animators spent eight months studying various animals' walk cycles as well as fur color.[33][34] 800,000 forms of mammals were created for and featured in the film.[34] To make the characters' fur even more realistic, they also went to a natural history museum to closely observe the appearance of fur with a microscope under a variety of lighting.[34] The filmmakers drew inspiration for Zootopia's urban design from major cities including New York City, San Francisco, Las Vegas, Paris, Shanghai, Hong Kong, and Brasília.[35] To develop a city that could actually be inhabited by talking mammals ranging in size from two inches (5 cm) to 27 feet (8.23 m) and from drastically different climates, the filmmakers consulted Americans with Disabilities Act specialists and HVAC system designers.[36] In March 2015, it was revealed that Rich Moore (Wreck-It Ralph) had been added as a director of the film, in addition to Jared Bush (Penn Zero: Part-Time Hero) as co-director.[37]
Disney's most recent work on animating fur was for the titular character of the 2008 film Bolt, but the software they had used at the time was not ready for creating the realistic fur of the animals of Zootopia.[34] Therefore, the studio's IT engineers developed the fur-controlling software iGroom, which gave character designers precise control over the brushing, shaping and shading of fur and made it possible to create a variety of eccentric character styles for each animal.[34] The software was also able to control an unseen "imaginary" underlayer that gave fur a degree of plushness not seen before.[34] This feature was used to create characters like Officer Clawhauser, who has a big head that is entirely made of spotted fur.[34] Characters with noteworthy numbers of strands of hair or fur included both of the two lead characters, Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde, who each had around 2.5 million hairs; a giraffe with nine million strands of fur; a gerbil with 480,000 strands; and a rodent with more strands of hair than the 400,000 that were on Elsa's head in Frozen.[34]
Zootopia was the second time Disney used the Hyperion renderer, which they had first used on Big Hero 6.[34] A new fur paradigm was added to the renderer to facilitate the creation of realistic images of the animals' dense fur.[34] Nitro, a real-time display application developed since the making of Wreck-It Ralph, was used to make the fur more consistent, intact and subtle much more quickly, as opposed to the previous practice of having to predict how the fur would work while making and looking at silhouettes or poses for the character.[34] The tree-and-plant generator Bonsai, first used in Frozen, was used to make numerous variations of trees with very detailed foliage.[34]
Character development
Zootopia was originally conceived of as an international spy film centered on a character named "Jack Savage" who would be somewhat like James Bond.[38] Over time, with the help of the Disney Story Trust (the studio's top creative personnel who meet regularly to discuss all projects in development), the film evolved into a police procedural in which Wilde was the lead role and Hopps was essentially his sidekick.[38][39] For a while, "the filmmakers were very committed" to that version of the story,[38] but then in November 2014, the filmmakers realized the film's plot would be more engaging if they reversed the roles to instead focus on Judy as opposed to Nick.[39]
On May 6, 2015, Bateman and Ginnifer Goodwin had been cast, respectively, in the roles of Nick Wilde and Lieutenant Judy Hopps.[13] The filmmakers chose Bateman because they wanted an actor who could bring "a funny yet heartfelt side" with "a wily, dry-witted sort of voice". Bateman described his character as "a crafty, sarcastic schemer", remarking on the role's similarity to many other roles he had done since he was 12. He explained that he had said to the directors: "'What kind of voice do you guys want me to do?' And they just looked at me like I was an idiot and said, 'Just do what you do. Just talk'".[40]
Commenting on the casting of Goodwin, Moore said that she brought "very centered sweetness, tremendous heart and a great sense of humor"; he described Judy as "a little Pollyanna mixed with Furiosa". Goodwin stated about her character: "People mistake kindness for naivete or stupidity, and she is a good girl through and through. But she's not a dumb bunny".[40] In July 2015, Alan Tudyk announced that he would join the cast;[41] his character's name was revealed to be Duke Weaselton.[15]
Music
The film's score is composed by Michael Giacchino.[2] It marks his first feature-length project for Walt Disney Animation Studios,[2] as he previously scored the Goofy short How to Hook Up Your Home Theater, the two Prep & Landing specials and short film, and the short film The Ballad of Nessie. In addition to her voice role of Gazelle, pop star Shakira also contributed an original song to the film titled "Try Everything", which was written by Sia and Stargate.[17][42] The film's score was recorded by an 80-piece orchestra in November 2015, with Tim Simonec conducting.[43]

Release
Zootopia was released in Disney Digital 3D, RealD 3D, and IMAX 3D, making it the first animated Disney film since Treasure Planet to be shown in domestic IMAX theatres.[8][9]
Zootopia was retitled for theatrical release across several international territories. In the United Kingdom and other European countries, the film was renamed Zootropolis, a reference to the concept of a 'metropolis'; all lines that include "Zootopia" were also redubbed.[44][45] The film was also known as Zoomania in Germany and as Crazy Animal City in China.[46][47] Disney declined to explain the reasons for the change, but the Irish Times suggested that the change was due to a previously filed trademark by a not-yet-opened Danish zoo.[48] In China, the state's SAPPRFT granted the film a rare two weeks extension to play in theaters in addition to its 30 days limited run, which was to have ended on April 3 resulting the film to play in theaters for a total of 44 days.[49]
Marketing
The first teaser trailer was released online at Walt Disney Animation Studios' YouTube page on June 11, 2015,[50] and theatrically with Pixar's Inside Out. A second teaser trailer was released online again at Walt Disney Animation Studios' YouTube page on November 23, 2015,[51] (and theatrically with Pixar's The Good Dinosaur) featuring a sequence of the film where the main characters encounter a Department of Mammal Vehicles (based on the DMV) run entirely by sloths. The official theatrical trailer for the film was released online at Walt Disney Animation Studios' YouTube page on New Year's Eve 2015.[52] Figures of Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde were released for Disney Infinity 3.0 on March 1, 2016.[53]
A digital marketing company, Allied Integrated Media, was contracted by Disney to reach out to members of the furry fandom on Meetup, encouraging them to post photos of themselves in their fursuits on social media, with the movie hashtag, as a form of viral marketing for the movie.[54][55]
Home media
Zootopia is set to be released by Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment on Blu-ray, Blu-ray 3D, DVD, and digital download platforms on June 7, 2016. It includes some bonus material such as "Scoretopia" and the music video of "Try Everything".[56]
Reception
Box office
As of June 5, 2016[update], Zootopia has grossed $337.2 million in North America and $662.8 million in other territories for a worldwide total of $1 billion against a budget of $150 million.[5][6] It became the second surprising hit of the year, following Deadpool.[57] On March 18, 2016, the film reached the $500 million mark, becoming the third consecutive Walt Disney animated film to reach the milestone after Frozen (2013) and Big Hero 6 (2014).[58][59] On April 5, it became the first film of 2016 to gross over $800 million in ticket sales,[60] and on April 24, became the first ever film of 2016 to cross $900 million.[61] On June 5, 2016 the film crossed the $1 billion mark, becoming the second film of 2016 to do so (after Captain America: Civil War), the fourth animated film, the eleventh Disney film (third Disney animated film) and the twenty-sixth film overall to break the milestone.[62]
Worldwide, it is currently the second highest-grossing film of 2016 behind Captain America: Civil War, the highest-grossing animated film of 2016,[63] the second highest-grossing Walt Disney Animation Studios film of all-time in its original release (after Frozen) and the second highest overall (also Frozen),[60] the second highest-grossing original film (behind Avatar),[57] the fourth highest-grossing animated film of all-time,[57] and the twenty-sixth highest-grossing film of all time.
North America
In the United States and Canada, pre-release tracking suggested the film would open to $60–70 million from 3,827 theaters in its opening weekend.[64][65] It played in 3,100 3D theaters, 365 IMAX theaters and 325 premium large formats screens.[64] It earned $1.7 million from Thursday previews, a record for a non-Pixar Disney animated film,[66] for an animated film opening outside of summer[67] and seventh biggest all-time for an animated film.[68] Buoyed by good word of mouth, it earned $19.5 million on its opening day, also a record for a non-Pixar Disney animated film (breaking Frozen's record),[66] and the second biggest for a March animated film (behind Ice Age: The Meltdown).[69] In its opening weekend, it scored a better than expected $75.1 million which is the biggest non-Pixar Disney animated opening (breaking Big Hero 6's record), the biggest opening weekend among Walt Disney Animation Studios films (breaking Frozen's record), the biggest March animated opening (breaking Dr. Seuss' The Lorax record), the fourth biggest March opening and the eighth biggest animated opening of all time.[70][71][72] Furthermore, its opening weekend is also the third biggest for an original film, behind only Inside Out and Avatar.[73] It also performed exceptionally well in IMAX where the film brought in $5.2 million from 366 screens, the second best animated IMAX opening behind only Toy Story 3's $8.4 million.[71]
In its second weekend, it fell gradually by 31.6% to $51.3 million and recorded one of the best holds for an animated film, more or less on par with Wreck-It Ralph's second weekend drop of 32.7% but a bigger drop than The Lego Movie's 27%.[74] It continued to top the box office for the third weekend earning $37.2 million, falling by 28% from its previous weekend while passing the $200 million mark.[75] This made it the second-biggest third weekend for a film that did not open at over $100 million, behind the $68 million third weekend of Avatar and ahead of Skyfall's $35 million.[76] The film was overtaken by the superhero film, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice in its fourth weekend, despite only a marginal decline.[77] It spent a total of thirteen consecutive weeks in the top ten, putting it right behind Avatar (14 weeks) and Frozen (16 weeks) among any film over the last decade.[57]
Outside North America
Internationally, Zootopia received a scattered release as Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures decided to take advantage of school holidays in various markets. It began opening in a very limited number of international markets in the weekend ending February 14, earning $4.5 million from 3 markets.[78] It expanded to 22 markets in its second weekend, which is 36% of its total international markets and added $31.2 million.[79] It added another $33 million in its third weekend with no new markets added.[80] In its fourth weekend, it expanded to 45 countries and grossed $64.7 million, coming in second place at the international box office, behind the Chinese film Ip Man 3.[81] $3.3 million came from IMAX showings.[81] It finally topped the box office in its fifth weekend after a strong second weekend gross in China. It added $89.3 million from 45 countries, an increase of 25% from its previous weekend.[82] It remained in first place for the second time in its sixth weekend,[83] before Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice took the top spot.[84] It passed the $500 million mark in its eighth weekend.[85]
In its opening weekend – which varies between markets – the film grossed $3.1 million in Spain and an additional $1.7 million in Belgium and Denmark. In Belgium, it scored the biggest ever animated opening for a Disney or Pixar movie.[78] It broke opening records for a non-Pixar Disney animated film in China ($23.6 million), France ($8.7 million) Russia ($7.9 million), Germany ($6.8 million), Hong Kong ($1.9 million), Poland ($1.2 million) and India.[79][81][84][86] Elsewhere, the United Kingdom and Ireland opened with $7.3 million, Mexico with $4.6 million, Australia with $3.6 million, Brazil with $2.6 million and Italy opened on a non-holiday weekend to $3.3 million,[79][83][84] and the film had No. 1 openings in Austria, Switzerland, Portugal and South Africa.[81] In the United Kingdom and Ireland, with significant competition from Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and the animated family film Kung Fu Panda 3, the film had a £5.31 million ($7.6 million) opening weekend from 579 theaters, including £1.74 million ($2.5 million) worth of previews, debuting in second place behind Dawn of Justice and falling just short of Walt Disney Animation Studios' best opening in the U.K.[87][88] It fell just 24% in its second weekend despite facing competition from holdover Dawn of Justice and newcomer Eddie the Eagle, earning £2.7 million ($3.8 million), falling in third place behind the two aforementioned films.[89]
Zootopia's largest markets outside of North America are China ($236.1 million), followed by Japan ($48.4 million), France ($36.0 million), Russia and the CIS ($34.4 million), the United Kingdom ($33.6 million), Germany ($32.2 million), and South Korea ($31.1 million).[90][91][92] In China, it is the highest grossing Disney film in local currency (¥1.530 billion), surpassing Avengers: Age of Ultron (¥1.464 billion), as well as the 7th highest grossing film of all time.[93][94] In Russia, it is the second highest grossing film of all time in local currency (₽2.3 billion), behind only Avatar (₽3.6 billion).[95] It topped the Russian and German box office for three weekends,[96][97] and the Korean box office for two weekends.[98]
In China, where it was locally known as Crazy Animal City (疯狂动物城)[47] the film exceeded expectations[99] and was considered Hollywood's most recent breakout hit in China since 2015's Jurassic World made $229 million.[100] It had an opening day of $3.4 million on its way to $23.8 million for its three-day opening weekend, debuting in second place and scoring the biggest non-sequel animated opening, as well as the second biggest three day opening and IMAX opening for an animated film, behind Kung Fu Panda 3.[47][81] In its ninth day of release (a Saturday), it recorded the biggest single day gross ever for an animated film with $25 million (compared to $10.6 million on its first Saturday) and passed the lifetime total of Big Hero 6 to become the highest-grossing Disney animated film in China.[101][102] In its second weekend, it grossed $60 million,[103] an enormous increase of 139% from its previous weekend, and crossed the $100 million mark to become the third animated film in China to do so after Kung Fu Panda 3 and Monkey King: Hero Is Back. This also marked the single best weekend for an animated film.[82] In mid-March the combined total of Kung Fu Panda 3 and Zootopia alone broke 2014's record of $286 million in box office grosses for American animated features in China.[104] In its third weekend, it grossed $40 million for a total of $175 million, making it the highest grossing animated film of all time in China.[105] On March 27, its seventeenth day of release, it passed the $200 million mark, becoming the first animated film, the second Disney film and the sixth Hollywood film overall to pass that milestone.[84] Zootopia's final gross is 9.92 times more than its opening weekend, behind only Monkey King: Hero Is Back (9.97 times more).[106] Its final gross is also 69 times more than its opening day gross, a record previously held by Goodbye Mr. Loser with 61.9 times more. The previous record for animated films was held by Monkey King: Hero Is Back with 53.1 times more.[107]
It opened in Japan on April 23[108] and earned $4 million in its opening weekend, debuting at second place in the box office behind Detective Conan: The Darkest Nightmare,[109][110] and scored the third-biggest Walt Disney Animation debut in that market, behind Frozen and Big Hero 6.[61] Deadline.com pointed out that the average opening number might have been due to the 2016 Kumamoto earthquakes which could possibly have affected moviegoers.[61] In a rare achievement, it topped the box office in its third weekend after two weeks at No. 2.[111] In the following two weekends, it continued to increase its ticket sales,[112] and has now topped the box office there for four consecutive weekends.[113][114] The Hollywood Reporter cited that strong word of mouth, audiences watching both the English and Japanese versions, and 3D and 4DX screenings, as well as a popular Japanese version of the "Try Everything" song by Dream Ami, have all helped boost Zootopia's performance.[113]

Zootopia received critical acclaim.[115][116] On Rotten Tomatoes, the film has a rating of 98%, based on 209 reviews, with an average rating of 8.1/10. The site's consensus statement reads, "The brilliantly well-rounded Zootopia offers a thoughtful, inclusive message that's as rich and timely as its sumptuously state-of-the-art animation – all while remaining fast and funny enough to keep younger viewers entertained."[117] On Metacritic, the film has a score of 78 out of 100, based on 39 reviews, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[118] On CinemaScore, audiences gave the film an average grade of "A" on an A+ to F scale.[119]
Neil Genzlinger of The New York Times considered the movie "funny, smart, [and] thought-provoking."[120] Rolling Stone's Peter Travers wrote that Zootopia "may be the most subversive movie of" 2016, praising its timely message about the harm of prejudice in the face of the prevailing xenophobic political rhetoric at the time of the film's release and the film's humor.[11] Peter Debruge at Variety opined that Zootopia "plays directly to the studio's strengths."[121] IGN reviewer Eric Goldman gave the film a 9.0 out of 10 'Amazing' score, saying "Zootopia is a wonderful example of how Disney, at its best, can mix its past and present together in a very cool, compelling way. It takes the classic animation trope of animals walking, talking and acting like humans, but gives it a modern spin both in terms of its humor and animation style ... and also in its themes, which are meaningful and fascinatingly topical."[122]
Writing in British Sunday newspaper The Observer, reviewer Mark Kermode found the film to be a "very funny, and very likable holiday treat". He added, "The ensuing drama is nominally a tale of predators succumbing to their animal instincts while frightened prey fear their neighbours. In fact, it's a delightfully well-orchestrated parable about trust and tolerance verses panic and prejudice. An encouragingly upbeat celebration of love and diversity in times of hate and uncertainty. If that all sounds overly on-message, then fear not – the jokes are funny, the characters engaging, and the animation packed with delicious visual detail", before concluding, "[…] this is proper family fun with genuine cross-generational appeal. Hooray!"[123]
In the UK daily newspaper The Daily Telegraph, Robbie Collin noted, "The lion doesn't just lie down with the lamb, they run for City Hall on a joint ticket. It's the diversity dream come true. Or is it? […] Think Busytown by way of Chinatown. It's almost certain to be the most existentially probing talking animal cartoon of the year." Collin added, "Like Nick Nolte and Eddie Murphy in 48 Hrs., albeit considerably cuter, Judy and Nick make a hilariously strained but effective double act – not least thanks to Goodwin and Bateman's tremendous vocal work, which trips along with the effortless swing and snap of great bebop." He concluded, "You could read a blunt racial equivalence into this – and there are moments in which the film openly invites us to do so. ('Go back to the forest, predator!' a sheep shouts at a cheetah. 'I'm from the savannah,' comes the weary reply.) But the allegory is far from rigid, and one of the film's great strengths is the trust it puts in its young audience to decode its complex, nuanced message about the value of difference. 'Turns out real life's a little bit more complicated than a slogan on a bumper sticker,' Judy sighs after a few days on the beat. 'Real life is messy'. Yes it is – and all the more funny, chaotic and beautiful because of it. So too, in the best possible way, is this film."[124]
Also in The Daily Telegraph, Rosa Prince singled out the film's lead character, Judy Hopps, as a welcome change for Disney animated feature film heroines, such as the Disney Princess franchise. She found that unlike those characters' focus on romance or family loyalty, Hopps' focus is on her dream career as a police officer and serving her city. Prince noted: "Zootropolis has a few more women than most Disney movies - around a third of the cast. But it is Judy who breaks the mould; a character who has no interest in being saved by Prince Charming, she’s too busy saving everyone else. As Ginnifer Goodwin, the actress who voices Judy and has two sons, has said: 'If I had little girls, I would kill for Judy Hopps to be their role model. And I would kill for Judy to be my boys' role model, too.' […] So perhaps it is time to get our daughters a Judy Hopps cop costume and tell them to put away their princess dress. If they protest, we can remind them of the advice given by Judy's boss, Chief Bogo: 'Life isn't some cartoon musical where you sing a little song and your insipid dreams magically come true. So Let It Go.'".[125]
A Chinese People’s Liberation Army newspaper published an editorial accusing the movie of promoting Western morals and American propaganda, criticizing the film's reversed role of predator and prey.[126][127]
