Hoppy

About This Movie

So, Hoppy (2023) directed by Jackson Bennett offers a unique blend of adventure and family drama. It’s really interesting to see how it tackles the dynamics between a father and son, especially in the context of their hunting trip. Hop, the father, is trying to mold his son Juniper into this alpha bunny but the way Juniper's timid nature clashes with Hop's expectations is just so relatable. The pacing feels deliberate, allowing the viewer to soak in the tension of their misunderstandings. Practical effects stand out here, giving a charmingly tactile feel to the bunny world. Performances are heartfelt, and you can almost feel the weight of the expectations and fears. It’s this quiet exploration of identity and acceptance that makes it worth noting.
