Peter Rabbit - Movie

Peter Rabbit - Movie


I can't believe I watched this movie thrice so far.

It's not like the movie is meant for kids but you should have seen the theatre. It was full of kids and for a moment I was unsure if I got into the wrong Aud. It is a brit movie. So the taste of brits reflecting in the aesthetics and other aspects of the movie is quite obvious.



Rabbits and their friends get acquainted with an abandoned home but when the guy who inherits the property from his grandfather arrives, it becomes a question of who should own the property.

The guy doesn't seem to be appreciative of pets in the home. So he tries, by all means, to get rid of them but his sweet love has her heart on those rabbits. The guy tricks the rabbits into committing crimes and to the disappointment of the rabbits, the lady finds the rabbits guilty.

The guilty rabbits then try to soothe the young lady and towards the end all is well.

But the film is captivating.

Forget about the movie. Let us talk literature here. Wolves, according to history, was the first target of humans.  Violent wolves slowly evolved into habitable dogs. Question is, how a single wolf species could evolve into 4000 different and distinct dog variant? If nature gave rise to so many variants, why it didn't happen to any other species?

Earthworms are exposed to radiations of nuclear explosions. Monkeys and rats are taking active participation in responsible gene editing. Rhinos and Tigers are few of many species that are facing extinction.

I dislike the idea of habituated animals.  I figure animals speak of a higher dimension of love which humans can never understand or perceive. Have you ever seen 2-3 male dogs gang-raping a female dog? That can never happen in animals.

They are much better than us. They don't need us. They really don't. We must let them on their own and try to learn from them. We must unclutch ourselves from all those stupid things that we came up with that forbidden thing that we proudly call "sixth sense".
