David “DC” Bolling @ DC’s Take
- Excerpt: The Wild Robot surprised me not only with its fantastic animation and Lupita Nyong’o’s voice performance but also with its intriguing and unquestionably mature plot, which brings together key life lessons that anybody can relate to.
- Excerpt: A gorgeous animated film about a robot who is of service to an orphaned gosling and other animals.
- Excerpt: a must see, a fantastical celebration of our better angels, an unforgettable tale of love and self-sacrifice.
- Excerpt: Writer-director Chris Sanders he creates a narrative that is exceptionally thoughtful, combining stories of a fish-out-of-water with family, friendship and identity… It’s undoubtedly one of the — if not the — best animated movies of the year.
- Excerpt: This tender journey of self-discovery is a vibrant adventure that should captivate children and families alike.
- Excerpt: The Wild Robot is a beautiful emotional work of art. Easily one of Dreamworks Animation’s best features. Lupita Nyong’o’s performance proves why voice acting is Oscar-worthy. Move over Baymax, WALL-E, and the Iron Giant – Roz is MOTHER!
- Excerpt: Add themes on home and family of the nurture rather than nature variety and there’s a lot to love about Roz and company’s emotional evolutions. It’s the blueprint of a civilization born from chaos.
- Excerpt: The film looks gorgeous, presents a tale acceptable for almost all ages, and is not afraid of speaking to core aspects of existence. For a film focused entirely on machines and animals, this movie has a lot of heart and intelligence to match.
- Excerpt: For me, I give it a good 4. I wanted more from the story concept, but I loved the talking animals, the lush environment and the multiple themes of perseverance, love and unity.

- Excerpt: It’s an enjoyable-enough romp, good for its target audience of animation fans and families. There are lots of jokes to complement the more serious parts, plenty of laughter to assuage the tears.
- Excerpt: Using a wonderful animation style, well-developed characters, potent relationships between characters, and themes related to family, motherhood, coexistence and yes, climate change, it manages to entertain us and even make us cry.
