For me, "Alien: Romulus" will always be my favorite movie of the year — I mean, how do you top that masterpiece? But it came out for almost a month and I've been looking for something new to get excited about As soon as I saw the first trailer for "The Wild Robot," I was hooked Now that it's earned a perfect 100% on Rotten Tomatoes, it's officially my top contender for the most anticipated movie of 2024

From what I've seen so far, I'm already ready for the "wild robot" to make me laugh, cry and feel everything The trailer gave me a big heart-shaking vibe, and I can already say it's going to be an emotional rollercoaster The organization is definitely going to be a must!

If "wild robots" are catching your eye and you want to know more before you grab your theater ticket, you're in the right place Here's everything you need to know about the film, along with what critics say about it

"Wild Robot" is based on the popular children's novel by Peter Brown The story follows a robot named Roz (Lupita Nyong'o) who wakes up on a remote, wild island after being wrecked Having no memory of how she got there, Roz has to figure out how to survive in this unfamiliar environment Over time, she learns to adapt to the island by observing the animals and nature around her, eventually forming friendships with animals, part of the natural world

At its core, the film explores the idea of finding a place where she belongs It focuses on Roz's self-discovery journey, where she learns what it means to live in harmony with the environment while facing various challenges and dangers along the way

While it's not every day you come across an animated film that seems poised to leave a lasting mark on the genre "Wild" Drobo" has all the makings of a true standout Everything about this film, from the stunning visuals shown in the trailer to the hearty stories adapted from Peter Brown's beloved book, shouts "Instant classics""

If early reviews and a 100% Rotten Tomatoes score are any indication, "The Wild Robot" could be perhaps one of the most memorable animated films of the decade (critics seem to agree)

Kate Erbland of Indiewire said: "It looks so gorgeous and the homespun adds to its appeal A warm little gem of a movie that is both a throwback and a step forward Is it too early to ask for another 2?"On the other hand," said Brian Tallerico of RogerEbert, "you can see a wild robot with the sound completely off and still have a rewarding experience — when you turn it on, you have one of the best animated films of the decade"

Next Best Picture's Dan Bayer also liked the film very much: "It's clear that everyone behind the film respects the audience regardless of age, and as a result, the emotions you feel while watching multiple levels stick to you long after it's over"

If there's one thing I can't stress enough is that "The Wild Robot" is obviously made for the big screen1 The film will hit more intensely when you are completely immersed in the theater The grand scale of nature, paired with a heartwarming (and perhaps heart-wrenching) story, deserves to be experienced in the kind of sound and visuals that only the big screen can provide 

For those who need more convincing, "Wild Robot" features an impressive voice cast along with Lupita Nyong'o, including big names like Pedro Pascal, Bill Nye, Mark Hamill, Kit Connor and Catherine O'Hara
