English The Wild Robot is an audiovisually captivating story about the unlikely motherly relationship between a robot and a gosling that manages to amaze, amuse and move for a hundred minutes. Chris Sanders' film blatantly targets our emotions, no question about it, but it does it in an unobtrusive and poignant way. I was hooked and reeled in by this parenting odyssey that truly warms your heart. A cunning and sharp-tongued fox and a seasoned mother sow provided the biggest portion of entertainment. The film doesn't forget to be didactic, and offers many endearing lessons and morsels of wisdom that will resonate with young and adult viewers alike - whether it be "don't judge a book by its cover," the importance of family bonds, or an upraised index finger to (disembodied and disempowering) technology. I emphatically give both thumbs up. ()

English A brilliant premise made into a whirlwind of action combined with funny gags, but also a touching story about parents and children. The Lightbringer saga has a wonderful visual style and a functional world that, at least initially, follows the kill or be killed rules. The animals comment quite eternally and cynically on the deaths of their comrades and take the robot for a monster. The themes of caring for an orphaned caterpillar, surrogate parenting, rewriting code, getting to know the denizens of the forest, the role of outsiders in society all run like clockwork. Maybe the multiple ending could have been handled better, but the positive feelings prevail. First movie with my daughter in the theater and she was thrilled... she just wants to be a robot now. ()

English One of the most beautiful and emotional films of the year. Pure Beauty! Wild Robot is impressive in so many ways, it has revolutionary visuals, a beautiful soundtrack that adds incredible emotion and intensity, a gripping and beautiful story about a robot who gets lost in the wilderness and has to learn the rules of the local animals (and on top of that, be a mom to a young gosling), and well-written characters (every single animal character is written perfectly). Of course there is humour, there is no lack of suspense, and a built-up action finale, but what makes the film magical and so strong is the emotions, I was screaming nonstop in the cinema, and I don't even remember that. The fox's speech at the sanctuary, the rescue of the animals from the cold, the gosling’s discovery that the robot isn't a real mother; these scenes really tug at the heartstrings like few things do. It certainly doesn't end with one screening, a very nice cinema visit and an incredible experience. Definitely take tissues with you. 10/10. ()
