Based on the New York Times bestselling children's book Pete & Pickles by Berkeley Breathed, the central character of "The Thousand Pound Heist" is Quy Hoi, a grumpy pig with a talent for bounty hunting.
The film has a rich cast of characters with the participation of many impressive voice actors.
Jason Sudeikis does a great job portraying a funny, grumpy but gradually warming Pig.
Lilly Singh brings lightness and optimism to Dua Mam, while Anitta makes a statement as Leticia – a strong female animal rights activist from Brazil.
The contrasting images of the main duo in the film: a tired "tiny" pig and a giant, cheerful elephant make it easy for even young audiences to remember.
Although not a tearjerker, “The Thousand Pounds” still teaches many important lessons. The film emphasizes the importance of empathy, the meaning of family, friends, and the freedom of animals.
“The Thousand-Pound Mission” also impressed with its brilliant setting and cheerful music. The film has currently earned 9 billion VND in revenue at the box office as of the evening of February 5, despite competing with films by Thu Trang and Tran Thanh.
