The Bad Guys (2022)

The Bad Guys, a gang of animals that historically have had bad reputations, is finally captured while trying to pull off one of their infamous heists, but crew leader Mr. Wolf convinces Governor Foxington that they deserve a chance to try to reform instead of being sent to prison. Set in a confusing world where humans and anthropomorphic animals live alongside animals that don’t talk or act like people, the animation is a softer, muted form of the typical computer animation put out by all the studios. The film could almost seamlessly blend with Zootopia. I enjoy a good heist film and this one delivers in that regard while adding cute animals to the mix. Watching the film and its accompanying short, Maraschino Ruby, really made me crave push ups.
