What Doraemon: Nobita and the Animal Planet Is About

Tsutomu Shibayama's 1990 animated film is one of the environmentally themed entries in the Doraemon series. After a pink fog appears in the house, Nobita and his friends pass into a planet where animals speak and have built a civilisation; the threat there comes from another species that has used up its own world. The series template here carries an open environmental criticism: a civilisation that exhausts its resources seizing another planet. For a children's film at the start of the nineties that is unusually direct. The animal characters are gently designed and the violence is kept measured. The story is simple and the resolution easy; predictable for an adult viewer. Who it's for: families following the Doraemon series and anyone looking for environmentally themed children's films. Who it's not for: adults new to the series, or anyone wanting a complex story.
