Hoppers is a fun ride with a deep message underneath. In true Pixar fashion, Hoppers explores the complexity of emotions and learning to be still in a world that demands fast progress.

Instead, the horror and transformation elements seem thrown in without contemplation of how this could deepen the narrative.

Standing up for what's right, she's met with miraculous results. She takes charge of her own destiny.

While Peter’s heroics might have been a bit unrealistic at times due to his lack of experience, I will always support the civilian taking down the establishment.
