The TVI Take
Pixar’s 2026 release follows a girl who body-swaps into a beaver to navigate an animal world threatened by human development, a premise critics likened to Bambi crossed with a heist comedy. The animation and comic timing are top-tier Pixar craft, which the prior score undervalued, while the storytelling stays in a lighter adventure register than the studio’s most cognitively demanding features.
The result is a polished, inventive comedy that entertains more than it challenges.
