What the cuss is going on here?

Rating: Null/10 (3 May 2011)

This Roald Dahl film was a "truly" entertaining film to watch. The animation was a spectacle and truly captures the works of Wes Anderson. The Fantastic Mr. Fox examines takes you into the world on a clan of animals all in a stop motion animation flick. The facial expressions and attention to detail was superb and original. The lighting of the film along with its animation brings out the characteristics in each of the animals. The close ups and spot light effect on the animals were fun and detailed. The world of Fantastic Mr. Fox brings you to an intelligent and clever set of animals that are quite sophisticated and hold various careers. George Clooney is the main character and is the reason for all the good and bad results for his friends and family. He yearns to be wild and untamed but is restricted by society. George Clooney has such a unique voice that warms you up and wants to like him. This smooth talking fox moved his family to tree in a more dangerous neighborhood, not taking advice from his lawyer, Bill Murray, the Badger. What makes it dangerous is the location to Boggis, Bunce, and Bean, the local farmers to the area. Facing hardships and greed, Fox tries to make a better life, steals from the farmers and gets his clan in and out of trouble. His nephew comes over when they are movie into the tree fox. Kristofferson ends up being captured trying a risky move of his own and Fox sets up a rescue mission that involves surrendering himself to the farmers. The three farmers set up an attack but the collaboration of the animals make a brilliant plan to fend off the humans. Fox, Ash and Kylie the Opossum dip and dive to rescue Kristofferson. With the karate that Ash learned from his more athletic and charming cousin, he uses his new skills to save him. Throughout the movie Fox is witty and fearless but admits to his phobia of wolves. The scene was enjoyable to watch because it proves that Fantastic Fox and the humanly clan of creatures, were all still "wild animals." This film really touches on the comedy for children and witty humor for adults. I could definitely see this being a pure adult film where as kids could not appreciate some parts of the film such as the argument between Fox and the Opossum. "A Titanium Card? Says Mr. Fox: "How did you qualify for this?" Kylie says "I pay my bills on time." The adult humor makes you think and in my opinion kept me into the movie.
