Movie Review: Chicken Little

Chicken Little

The only bright spot in this film comes at the end when there's a Chicken Little film within this one. The voicing by Adam West and others during that scene just made me laugh. Sadly, that's NOT the time to start the fun.

Chicken Little and his band of misfit friends discover some aliens they believe to be invading the world. This is scary and I would think not fun AT ALL for kids. The pointless meandering plot failed to show me anything to care about. It really chaps my hide when "aliens" are either cute and lovable benign creatures or scary monsters. This plot managed both and badly at that.

Murry remarked that it really shows in some of these animated films that the voice actors are not interacting during the film. They just watch the video and record their voice in a vacuum. They often never meet until the press tour after the film. It makes their performances wooden and dry.

Come on Disney/Pixar. Don't be scaring kids and breakin my kid like heart. Coquille, Myrtle Point and Bandon have copies of the DVD.
