The Wild Robot is a simple and self-explanatory title. And yet, it contains a contradiction. Can a robot be wild? The definition of a wild animal includes a certain uncontrollability and unpredictability, which is hardly possible for a programmed being. On the other hand, this programming also includes learning. So why shouldn't it learn to be wild or even human?
We are dealing with a renegade robot. A robot that learns from animals what humanness means. A robot that rebuilds…

Whoah… whoah…, well, that’s the sound of being lost for words. And her smile, her smile is so exceptional.
I literally just reconnected with a friend I haven’t spoken to in 8 years. For me, this movie did not feel like it wanted to tell me a story about those three protagonists.

It’s always exciting when you have new settings, new areas of the world, and new cultures to learn about. And yes, you get that in the first half. But then everything derails. It becomes a sort of horror movie with tropes I never even imagined seeing here. I wish they had played this more safely.

I‘m a sucker for serious comedies. Creating comedy in scenes with tremendous tension and stakes is an art form on its own. The movie is able to achieve this with extreme absurdity, whereby it however also stays realistic. A perfect mix.
Also I think this is the movie with the highest swearword density, at least of the ones I have seen.Translated from by -

Brilliant cinematography, fun characters, minor pacing flaws. If there is a mystery at the core of the story, you should reveal effects of it with an increasing level of escalation before the big reveal.
In my opinion one escalation level is clearly missing here. Luckily, there is a plethora of amazing elements which bury this flaw.Translated from by
