Hoppers Flies Higher: Pixar’s Bold, Funny, and Haunting Forest Adventure

Pixar's Hoppers, directed by Daniel Chong, is a bold, funny, and emotionally rich forest adventure where Mabel (Piper Curda) uses a sci‑fi consciousness transfer to rally animals against a destructive mayor. Blending sharp humor with darker, surprising moments, it channels Up‑like heart and Avatar‑esque setup, all supported by stunning animation and a strong environmental, found-family message. It’s a standout, potentially among Pixar’s best, and opens March 6.
