Blue Sky Studios' bovine apologue might be a load of old bull, but it was still nominated for the Best Animated Feature at the 90th Academy Awards, ultimately losing out to Pixar's much better Día de Muertos tearjerker Coco.
John Cena - perhaps now an actor as much as he is a wrestler - takes on the role of the eponymous hero (it's not clear whether he's named for the ill-fated Archduke Franz, or brill-footed Sir Les), a bull more inclined to smell flowers than fight matadors. The film says bully to bullying as much as it does bull-fighting. Just nobody tell Primo and Epico.
