Film review
8.0
The Wild Robot uses a hand-painted animation technique, part classic Disney, part Hayao Miyazaki. The images are striking, whether it is the desolation of Rozzum 7134 or Roz (Nyong'o), a walking, talking robot trained to complete every task demanded of it, hanging by a twig off a cliff in a bid for a goodbye, or sitting alone in a swirling snowstorm. And Nyong'o in her mechanical delivery that slowly loses its edges as she becomes 'The Wild Robot', at home in the jungle, Pascal in his rendition of a lonely fox that longs for family, and Connor as the nervous gosling who must find a new home, don't let this journey feel long.
