This is a great movie, one that I remember really enjoying the first time I ever saw it, and one that has been watched many times in the week since it first came into our home. My daughter loves this movie, and I love watching it too. It has a great story, great animation, and is perfect for a family to watch. Definitely one to share with the children, if you have any, or watch even if you don'... read more

A masterpiece a decade ago and a masterpiece now!

After the huge success of Creature Comforts and Wallace And Gromit, expectations of Chicken Run were exceedingly high! Chicken Run is almost like an animated version of the classic film The Great Escape with the same music and very similar dialogue! I have to say that Chicken Run is one of the smartest and most extraordinary animated films that I think have ever been made! It is a very British fil... read more

A fun film featuring many well-known British voices. And I seem to recall an obscure American in the line up as well (just kidding, Mel).

I'm a big fan of Nick Park's work as I've always been in stop-motion animation. It has a realistic feel that Pixar-style animation has only been able to simulate in the last few years because it's so computationally demanding. I recommend the DVD ... read more

International Versions Danish Rocky – Søren Pilmark Ginger – Anne ... (more)

A Complete Review of Nick Park's work (9 movies items)

" What was it about? When a cockerel apparently flies into a chicken farm, the chickens see him as an opportunity to escape their evil owners. My two cents: After watching all his amazing Wallace & Gromit shorts, it was just really neat that Nick Park was coming up with this first full length feature with the same clay-motion technique. I was also glad that he came up with some new characters so this movie was really promising. Well, to be honest, I actually ended up with some mixed feelings"
