A little plasticine can go a long way

Rating: 6/10 (7 May 2012)

From the team behind Wallace and Gromit comes this great kids film about Chickens that are trying to escape from their owners.
While the premise is simple what is not simple is the great characters and the jokes that come thick and fast as the minds of Aardman manage to create a film that adults and children can all enjoy.
The film is nearly 12 years old now but still looks great and is far better than a lot of the films that adults have to sit through with their kids these days. The comedy comes from the characters and not lots of tricks and 3D technology. Aardman in this and in all their other films make well crafted entertainment and there isn't a lot of that around these days.
From parodies of other films, great jokes and characters Chicken Run will always be fondly remembered.
