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 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.

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.

It’s an improvement on Elio, and still better than most of the competition.

3.5/ 5

The film may not quite match the profound emotional depth of Pixar’s finest classics, yet its originality and spirited storytelling make it one of the studio’s most refreshingly unconventional offerings in recent years.

Nonetheless, this kooky voyage into the animal kingdom nicely stands apart from its Pixar brethren. It’s no Hundreds of Beavers, but Hoppers still plays like the hilariously caffeinated offspring of The Wild Robot and Teen Titans Go!.

Hoppers is a weird one. As a Pixar film, there is a lot to love, but simultaneously to say its politics are murky is putting it mildly.

Cute movie with a great message about the environment. Grands and I have seen it twice now. Enjoyed it even more the second time. Under four might not understand the plot though.
