Fantastic Mr. Fox
[ IMDB ]
Wes Anderson (Rushmore, The Royal Tenenbaums) stylishly adapts Roald Dahl's slyly humorous fairy tale about a reformed chicken thief tempted back into his old, troublemaking ways in this 2009 fantasy. The voicecast (George Clooney, Meryl Streep, Bill Murray) is as good as you could hope, and the old-fashioned stop-motion animation makes the film roughly a hundred times more magical than the last five 3-D computer-animated films to hit theaters. 87 minutes PG.
