Justice Tilsher 11/26/2024 It exists. Very forgettable See more Julian L @Kubrickians 10/05/2024 Pretty good, but the book is better, and it has a good point of humans hurting animals but feels a bit exaggerated, even if not. See more Dale R @iromulus9 07/07/2024 A Disney+ original movie based on the novel by K. A. Applegate, which in turn is based on true events about a Lowland Gorilla that was an attraction at a mall. Allowing the animals in the “Big Top Mall'' to have a voice was an interesting choice that I wasn’t ready for. Sam Rockwell voices Ivan well and Angelina Jolie was also great as the elephant Stella. Bryan Cranston plays the owner of the animals and delivers a good performance. The animation for the animals is on par with the Lady and the Tramp remake and using a gorilla as the main character allows for better facial emotional expression. The story itself is predictable and bland, but may entertain the younger audience. A movie worth checking out if you like the source material or the plot sounds interesting.

The CGI work is exceptional, drawing you in with its captivating visuals, complemented by stellar voice acting, particularly from Angelina Jolie. Charlie Puth's title track adds another layer of depth, keeping you engaged from start to finish. Within the first 20 minutes, tears welled up in my eyes, a testament to the emotional depth of the story. This movie tugs at your heartstrings, evoking a profound sense of sadness that resonates with the audience, highlighting the characters' value. The animals are charmingly eccentric, bringing humor and lightness to the narrative, yet there's a poignant undertone that keeps you invested in their journey towards survival and freedom. Every moment of the film is a delight, leaving you wanting more. It's a must-watch for families, offering valuable lessons about compassion, unity, and the bond between people and animals. "The One and Only Ivan" is a heartwarming tale filled with love and warmth that will leave a lasting impression on viewers. #TheOneAndOnlyIvan See more DJ W 09/28/2023 Fun, entertaining, heartfelt family movie See more Rodrigo C 06/02/2023 this is the movie that was the memory of Ivan the Gorilla 1962-2012 See more Read all reviews
