"Fantastic Mr. Fox", based off the book by Roald Dahl, is the newest film by director Wes Anderson, who also made Rushmore, The Royal Tenenbaums, and The Darjeeling Limited. His new film was unlike the rest however; this time around he took a shot at a whole new field; that is, the genre of classic stop-motion animation. Fantastic Mr. Fox features amazing work in the field, as well as a nicely developed storyline that is a lot of fun for viewers of all ages.
The celebrity voices in the film consist of George Clooney, Meryl Streep, and Bill Murray. Together, they created a diverse set of characters that were unique in their own way. George Clooney had a great voice for the lead character, Mr. Fox, to take charge and be the sly yet outgoing individual he was.
The film had many laughs that could appeal to all ages. There were silly moments as well as discreet jokes woven into the array of creative dialogue displayed. The storyline was about a fox who stole alcoholic cider, chickens, and other small commodities from three different human farmers. Afterward, the humans gave all their effort and power into digging up the holes that the foxes shared with many other animals, including a badger and a weasel. This created an interesting and humorous set of conversations between the many different animals.
Overall, Wes Anderson's "Fantastic Mr. Fox" was a fun and humorous film for all ages. Anderson took a bold step into the world of animation and it payed off. His artsy and entertaining movie is one that fits in well to the animation genre.
