Zootopia

This was the film that I have decided to watch during the raya holidays. Zootopia (2016), Disney's newest animated film. Zootopia features Judy Hopps, discovering that she is the first bunny cop on a police force of big, tough animals. Things did not turn out as easy as expected for her as she determines to prove herself. She jumps at the opportunity to crack a case, even if it means partnering with a fast talking, scam artist fox, Nic Wilde to solve the mystery.

The genres used in the film are Comedy, Action Film, Family Film, Adventure Film and Buddy Film. Comedy genre is a work intended to be humorous or to amuse by inducing laughter. One of the types of comedy used in the film is dark comedy, this is because dark comedy makes jokes out of serious or disturbing matter. Dark comedy is used at the scene where Judy Hopps and Nick Wilds needs to run a car plate with the help of Flash. In that scene, it shows all the workers as sloths to depict what people feel about the services in real life.  Comedy is used throughout the film, one example is in the end credit where they show Flash speeding in his high speed vehicle. 

Zootopia is also an action film, action film is films where the hero of the story faces a series of challenges that involve violence, close combat, physical feats and fanatic pursuits. Action film features a hero struggling against all odds which includes life threatening situations which in the end proves victorious for the hero. Action film could be seen in zootopia in the scene where Judy hopps and Nick wilde finds  Mr Manchas, Mr Big's limousine driver for an explanation of the incident. The scene shows Mr Manchas going berserk from the effect of the drug causing him to attack Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde. 

Family films is also considered as Children's film is films that contains children or relate them to home and family.Family films are made with a wide appeal with a general audience in mind which includes both parents and children. Zootopia is a family film because it is a Disney animation that appeals for children and yet making it entertaining for parents as well.

Adventure films are films which uses exotic locations in an energetic way. Adventure films mainly shows characters going on a heroic journeys into the unknown. Zootopia is an adventure film as it shows Judy Hopps leaving her home to be the first bunny cop in the police force in the heart of Zootopia, not only she is new to the city, she has to explore unknown continents to crack the case within 24 hours.
