Fantastic Mr. Fox is...well...fantastic!

Rating: 9/10 (7 October 2010)

There have been many of Roald Dahl's books brought to the movie world. We've had movies such as James and the Giant Peach, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, The Witches, The BFG and now Fantastic Mr. Fox, which has proved to be quite the diamond. The story is brilliant which is to be expected since it's based on a Roald Dahl book, the animation is bright and colourful and is simply superb as it uses the original classic stop motion animation. The voice acting has no faults and the characters were beautifully written and a lot of fun to watch. It's guaranteed to leave you grinning from ear to ear after you finish watching it.
When I first saw the trailer for this movie, I must admit I did have some doubts but after putting them aside and watching the movie, I could see I had nothing to worry about as this is truly a classic animation for children and adults to watch. The humour involved in the movie is great and timed perfectly. It surprised me as well because, and I don't know if this is me but, the animation looked choppy and kind of slow yet when watching the animation, it was nice and smooth and ran perfectly. Almost everything about Fantastic Mr. Fox was near enough perfect to how a family animation should be. However, nothing is ever perfect and I doubt I'll ever see a perfect movie. Having said that, this movie comes pretty close to being the perfect family movie. I really do recommend this movie to everyone as I have yet to find a person who didn't fall for the charm of Fantastic Mr. Fox. This will definitely keep the whole family entertained and adults and children will adore it. I thank the cast and the crew for bringing such a classic story to life and making it fantastic.
