Zootopia

Zootopia: 2016

IMDB: 8.1

Voice cast: Shakira (as Gazelle), Ginnifer Goodwin (as Juddy Hopps)

It's a comedy animation movie. The story is about a bunny wanting to be a cop in the future but the society she lives in stereotypes her and expect her to be a farmer like all the other bunnies. The place called Zootopia is known to be the city of freedom where everyone can be anything so she becomes a cop unlike what everyone else thought. When she starts working in Zootopia, still nobody believes in her so they give her easy jobs. While she's on duty, trying to solve a missing animal case to prove herself to everyone, she meets Nick, a fox, and threatens him to cooperate with her to solve the case. While they're investigating, they start to become good friends unlike what society expects.

Personal Thoughts: It was one of the best animations I've watched lately. I used to like Bolt and Little Red Riding Hood a lot but now I like Zootopia too. It was really sweet and funny. I watched it with my friends so we laughed every few seconds. (the sloth scene was the best). Nick's the coolest fox ever. It was genuinely really cute and funny. Also, the ending is totally shocking, I think it's definitely a movie you should watch if you're looking for a cute, funny animation.

Becoming Jane

Becoming Jane: 2007

IMDB: 7.1

Cast: Anne Hathaway (as Jane Austen), James McAvoy (as Tom Lefroy)

It's a biographical movie about the writer Jane Austen's life. Many of the people didn't believe she could be a writer because of the society's structure in those times and the strict moral rules which were even more clear in the countryside. Jane is stubborn, passionate, scenical and confident. She is confident and brave. She doesn't care about money or men around her unlike the other women. She meets Tom Lerfroy who also happens to be as stubborn and as passionate as her. Their interests differ but they're both strong characters which causes for them to hate each other even before they meet each other. One thing they're strictly different about is morality. Tom, is considered immoral compared to the other people around him. He's careless, wild and as Jane Austen says once, dangerous. But he has an advantage: experience which is something Jane lacks of. They complete each other in a way that no other can understand. No money or status can change. They fall in love not in an easy way. Neither of them has money to live. They have belief in their love but it doesn't last long. The reality hits them and that's how their love dies. It practically never dies (Tom gets married to someone else and calls her first daughter Jane and Jane never gets married.)

Personal Thoughts: It is one of my favourite movies. Anne Hathaway and Tom Leroy was absolutely great. I was in love with them. I was basically fan-girly through the whole movie. It was just perfect. The first scene Tom Leroy was in was really cool I think. They really introduced his character well. I'm glad they chose James McAvoy for the character because he's really cool and handsome and I kinda have a crush on him since X Men. He was the arrogant bad boy of the old times. Their love slowly forms and at first it's kind of invisible but they surely have an attraction. Jane looks for him in everywhere which was one of the best scenes. (after the cricket scene where she kicks Tom's ass) I loved it when Tom suddenly appeared in the dance. I can't really say more than I love the movie. I also watched Pride and Prejudice (which is one of Jane Austen's books) but I liked Becoming Jane more. Maybe it's because of the characters or the events. In Pride and Prejudice, they didn't like each other at first too but in Becoming Jane every emotion was clearly visible. Also I found it really amusing Tom appearing when Jane was gossiping about him. It actually shows how much she cares about him. Like I said, it's one of the movies that really gives the feeling. I made literally everyone around me watch it and no one ever disliked it so I suggest you to watch it too (if you enjoy romance)
