How did this movie have better writers than disney ? Disney writers always have to add conflict between 2 friends , then they hate each other then they become friends again. The other one is when 2 opposites become friends for example old & new "cars 3" , predator & prey "zootopia" , fire & water , and a few other movies. Don't forget the annoying funny side kick too which thankfully this movie doesn't have any of these 2. I did realize some lip syncing issues throughout the movie but that isn't a big deal , the animation looks good. You can easily tell no AI worked on this movie unlike disney's WISH.

Finally a plot that is different
slavery allusion
Unlike other animals, thoriphants have the power of speech which make them especially useful for farm work. Their lives parallel those of the American slaves. Mosley was sold alone as a child. It's twenty five years later. He has his own family and works for a poor struggling farmer. His son Rue discovers paintings which show thoriphants walking upright. He escapes to search for the uprights in hopes of gaining freedom for his family.
I like some of the ideas like the fireflies and the fruits. The main allusion to slavery is a little awkward. I'm willing to go with it but the undeniable consequence of that allusion is that animal domestication is inherently cruel. This idea may work better with a bit more distance. It may need to be a sci-fi story especially with the super-quick evolution of the thoriphants. I also have a question about the uprights. There is a revelation which puts this world into some questioning. This is a functional kiddie movie and it's trying very hard for an adult discussion.
