The sounds and soundtrack blended with realistic camera pans assists the high ranking. Like I said, the animation contributed a lot to the wow factor. Peter Lord and Nick Park are one talented pair. 4 Other than the unique animation, not much else to report. The movie IS about chickens after all.
Disney movies are good.
This has to rank up there. A strong story, excellent animation, and a really likeable cast puts this in near the tops in its category.
