Fast-paced and delightful

Rating: 8/10 (27 June 2000)

Chicken Run is an excellent comedy, and easily one of the finest animated films to come along in some time. Mel Gibson and Julia Sawalha's voice work is masterful, giving more personality to clay chickens than one will find in many human actors. What's more, this movie is suitable for viewers of any age, and truly warrants the name "family film." Heartily recommended.
