An amazing feat for young and old alike

Rating: 9/10 (25 June 2000)

If you love Wallace and Gromit, this movie is for you. If you love good, clean fun, this movie is for you (and your family). If you love endless good and bad puns, this movie is for you. If you love homages to other movies woven into the movie you're watching, this movie is for you.
It is just a fun movie from beginning to end. Watching the kids in the audience get a lot of the jokes, then hearing the adults respond to the ones aimed at them was great.
The only disconcerting moment is when one of the chickens meets an untimely fate.
And how often do you hear spontaneous applause at the end of a movie? You will at the end of this one as you root for the chickens to make their escape. Just a great movie.
