About this movie

George Clooney and Meryl Streep lend their voices to this hilarious and heartwarming animated adventure from visionary director Wes Anderson. Mr. and Mrs. Fox (Clooney and Streep) live a happy home life with their eccentric son Ash (Jason Schwartzman) and visiting nephew Kristopherson. That is until Mr. Fox slips into his sneaky, old ways and plots the greatest chicken heist the animal world has ever seen. Based on the beloved, best-selling book by Roald Dahl (Charlie and the Chocolate Factory), Fantastic Mr. Fox is family fun at its finest.

very American: championing professionals via the animals being a lawyer, accountant, narrative: a disadvantaged youth ct. a champion passable, but avoid if after something of the quality of Grand Budapest Hotel!

This is a very VERY good film. The cinematography is impeckable, as is the animation, But that's is arguably not even the best part. The story handles it's themes very well, telling a story about self-acceptance, and exposing kids to a non-perfect ending. It is easy enough for kids to understand, is Mr Fx a wild animal who steals? or a journalist and husband? This is a film for everyone, not just kids, and a no doubt must-watch.
