Critics Consensus

An eager beaver for endearment that has the charm to back it up, Hoppers is a sprightly riot that might just be the funniest entry in the Pixar canon yet.

It’s an improvement on Elio, and still better than most of the competition.

Hoppers is thoughtful, animated with the same genuine, openhearted energy that defines the best of Pixar’s classics.

I liked the fact that this is just about a person. And yes, she does jump into an animatronic beaver. That is true. But as a person, she's just a person. And I really, really liked Mabel as a lead character. I thought she was extremely appealing.

Hoppers was enjoyable throughout. It’s got so many humorous moments and a central protagonist that brings both laughter and emotion. Mabel is easy to root for, yet flawed. And all those adorable animals, and the beautiful animation are a wonder to watch.

This family-friendly film takes the spy camera in the wild a step further. Although it starts slow and the story has holes, it is emotionally satisfying in the end. Trigger warning for those who have dealt with fire tragedies.

Hoppers resonates with all humans proving that despite our differences, we can still come together with understanding and respect if we just give one another a chance.
