A movie that leaves me with tears pouring down my face and questioning if Ratatouille should still be my favorite animated movie of all time. It comes in as a definitive close second and might even overtake it at some point as time passes. The Wild Robot is genuinely one of the most beautiful films I have ever seen both visually and dramaturgically. I can see how it will mean different things to different people and I can definitely see how even I will see different things in the movie as life goes on. This movie is truly art and if it doesn't win the Oscar this year, it will be the second Robot-Animation film in a row to be snubbed for Best Animated Feature.
