Paw Patrol: The Movie (2021)
No city’s too big, no pup’s too small, in PAW Patrol: The Movie. Based on the beloved pre-school TV series, the #33 biggest movie of 2021 tails Ryder and his pack of puppy hero friends to Adventure City, where greedy Mayor Humdinger is turning the bustling metropolis into a state of chaos. Plus, there’s a courageous new girl pup on the squad: Liberty, voiced by Teen Choice nominee Marsai Martin from Little and Black-ish.
The movie is recommended for ages 4+ by Common Sense Media, where they say, “These adorable, selfless rescue pups are irresistible to preschoolers, who will be delighted by the movie’s sweet, simple adventure,” and “even audiences who don’t know anything more than the theme song will be pleasantly surprised… Its themes of teamwork, trust-building, and courage are overt without being preachy, and the celebrity voice cameos will make parents laugh, like Jimmy Kimmel playing a TV reporter, Tyler Perry as a truck driver in need of saving, and even Kim Kardashian West as a fancy poodle (naturally).”
“The movie has slightly more peril and cartoon violence than the show,” Common Sense adds, “but it continues to promote positive messages about courage, perseverance, teamwork, and problem-solving.”
