Cuss Me for Taking This Long

Rating: 9/10 (8 January 2012)

'The Fantastic Mr. Fox' is kinda like coffee or smokingI don't think anyone jumps head-first into either. Neither did I. This being my (LONG OVERDO) first viewing, took me awhile to get into the fashion of animation that's completely different than anything else I've seen – including Pixar, normal CGI and Wallace & Gromit. Butwaitonce you do go down this fox hole, chances are it will surely grow on you, make you smile more than a dozen times, warm thy creative heart and laugh out loud. One running gag I loved so much and never got old: the cuss word(s). This movie is weird, and continues that way to the end and I'm guessing we're rooting for the bad guys/thieves – boy, George, he can really make you side with him, even when animated. Oh, and those are not complaints. BIG Thumbs up.
