Why watch?

Bobby Moynihan as the nervous alien hopper steals it — his anxiety about everything mixed with deadpan logic makes him hilarious. Jon Hamm and the rest of the cast go hard with the jokes about sci-fi tropes, treating the whole journey literally — hopping instead of walking, everything's interpreted word-for-word. It's a funny rhythm that keeps moving for 105 minutes straight, and even when a joke doesn't land, the next one's already coming.

Who is it for?

Perfect for Saturday afternoon with the kids — funny, fast, no stress. If you liked the first Super Mario Bros. Movie or The Lego Movie, it's got that same vibe. Safe for young kids, no violence or language.

If you enjoyed Hopnięci for its silly aliens, bouncy sci-fi logic, and family-friendly chaos, check out Planet Sheen and I Just Woke Up — they've got that same vibe of goofy protagonists thrown into absurd worlds where the rules are made up as you go. Both lean hard into the visual comedy and weird creature design that makes Hopnięci work.

Mabel is an animal-loving girl who gets the chance to inhabit robot bodies and experience the world as real creatures when scientists invent hopnosis—a way to transfer human consciousness into animal-like machines. Director Daniel Chong's Hoppers is Pixar doing what they do best: taking a wild sci-fi concept and turning it into something genuinely heartfelt about connection and wonder. You're following Mabel as she discovers secrets about nature that she never knew existed, all while voiced by Piper Curda with a solid supporting cast including Jon Hamm and Bobby Moynihan keeping things grounded and funny. If you loved Raya and the Last Dragon or Soul, this has that same blend of adventure, humor, and genuine emotion about understanding the world differently.
