Love with all my heart to see animals made with CGI instead of real ones but the plot itself kinda lost me, not gonna lie, even if this is a Disney movie and it is intentended to be for the whole family, lowkey I was wishing [spoiler] that Mack don't get away with that so easily but then again I'm sure that happened with the real one so... [/spoiler] Love everyone of the characters, we need more Disney movies like this!

It's an ok movie but with a very important message. Please don't go to circuses that use animals!!! Animals don't belong in cages and there's always abuse behind the scenes.

excellent to see as a family

[4.75 of 10] I feel like I am the only person who didn't like this film. Full disclosure - I watched it because I am going through all of the Oscar-nominated films & I wouldn't have watched it otherwise. I found the talking "live-action" animals very off-putting. While I have watched a bunch of animated films lately that I can identify with, this film was absolutely a movie made with exclusively kids in mind. It wasn't particularly bad but the storytelling was mediocre & the true story of Ivan is far more compelling yet less easily consumed by kids & family. The acting was pretty solid but I couldn't imagine the dog, Bob, as anything else but Danny DeVito which killed any immersion as his character is in a lot of the film. I will not be watching this again.
