This was gripping. Always wanted to watch a film about a squirrel. Can finally tick that one off! Disney's "true life fantasy" was quite effective in its portrayal of the life of Perri and her lover, Porro. After all, who doesn't create their own stories and narratives when watching wildlife documentaries?
It has a bit of everything:
It definitely showcases the cycle of life and was a bit sad in parts. There's certainly a lot of bad things out to get you in life and Perri doesn't shy away from it. It also features a wildfire sequence sure to trigger fellow Australians after we lost 1 billion animals to our bushfire crisis earlier in 2020.
Ultimately, I really liked this and found myself smiling and laughing throughout. Go Perri!
