Movie review: The Wild Robot

Goodevening everybody and welcome in to my movie review of The Wild Robot. I saw this movie on 27-10-2024.
-------------------------------

A Universal Dynamics cargo ship loses six all-purpose ROZZUM robots during a storm. The robots wash up on an island uninhabited by humans; only one survives the crash and is accidentally activated by the local wildlife. ROZZUM Unit 7134, later nicknamed "Roz," attempts to advertise her services to the animals but only succeeds in terrifying them and injuring herself. Even after spending several days translating the animals' language, she still cannot find anyone who requires her help. She decides to signal to her manufacturers to retrieve her but is struck by lightning and attacked by a horde of raccoons and Thorn, a grizzly bear; while fleeing, she accidentally crushes a goose nest, killing the mother and leaving only a single egg.
