I Rented The Wild Robot To See What The Hype Is All About (Spoiler Free)
I have a love-hate relationship with movies coming to streaming so soon, sometimes it feels like it is undercutting its time at the theater, but it also has its benefits, like in the case of today. Life has been busy and I still have yet to find the time to see this film, it was announced to be coming to Peacock and Netflix eventually, but for the price of two tickets, I can watch it now, and so I decided to. I want to see the hype behind the Wild Robot, so I rented it, and here are my spoiler-free thoughts. If I could describe this movie in one word, it is wholesome. There is some dark humor, and some funny moments as well, but this movie is ultimately very sweet and heartwarming. When a robot finds herself dropped onto an island, and interacting with the wildlife, being task-driven she is given the ultimate task in life, parenting when a baby duck falls into her care. There is more but that is just the basic run down I am going to give, and I will not be diving too deep in...
