Critical Reception

What critics are saying

Score 75 /100

Critical reception for Zootopia+ is generally positive, with reviewers praising the series as a charming and humorous extension of the original 2016 film. Supporters highlight the return of the original voice cast, the high-quality animation, and the show's ability to provide meaningful screen time to beloved supporting characters. Many critics find the bite-sized episodes to be a fun, harmless addition to the franchise that appeals to both children and adults.

However, the reception is not unanimous. Some critics argue the series feels unnecessary, suggesting the short runtime prevents the stories from being truly substantial. Additionally, while most agree it is family-friendly, some reviewers have noted the inclusion of mild adult humor and depictions of alcohol that parents might want to be aware of.

“The all-new series is the perfect extension of the original Zootopia film, with the same humor and visually superb animation.”

“The original voice cast is back for all of the characters that we see on screen, making the shorts feel more believable.”

“While the directors have previously teased wanting to explore the world further, the episodes are just too short to really be of note.”

“A handful of the most memorable support characters in Zootopia get their own adventures in six fun new shorts.”

Why fans love it

Zootopia+ returns to the dense mammal metropolis to spotlight the background players of the 2022 film. By moving away from the central mystery of the original story, the series captures the mundane chaos of a city built for creatures of all sizes. The computer animation remains sharp, turning the daily errands and peculiar hazards of urban living into focused character studies.

The project thrives on the specificity of its animal residents. Charlotte Nicdao provides a sense of fresh energy as these shorts expand on the textures of the city, from the bustling street corners to the high-stakes interior lives of its inhabitants. It functions as an anthology that balances family-friendly sensibilities with the dry, observational humor inherent to this particular world.
