#13 - Fantastic Mr. Fox (2009) - starring George Clooney & Merryl Streep - 93% Rotten Tomato Score
This movie is one that I can already tell will make nostalgic one day. So fun to just watch the animation, Wes Anderson delivers like he always does in this one. Usually when a children's book is stretched out into a film, it is a failure in my eyes (The Grinch, Cat in the Hat). I guess Where The Wild Things Are was alright. Anyways, back to Fantastic Mr. Fox. The soundtrack is amazing. I listen to it all the time. The plot is charming, all the characters are fun to watch, basically this entire movie is just a delightful experience. It is presented in a much different style than both traditional animation feature films and traditional animal movies. Just great.
I watched this for the first time like 2 months ago and it was AWESOME! The stop motion was really good!!! I read somewhere that it took around 56,000 shots to make this movie. Also George Clooney was really witty and his comedic timing was perfect! One of my favorite scenes was the fight scene between Mr Fox and Rat and there were flashes of light and electricity. That scene was beautifully shot! Great movie!
ReplyDeleteWow....really? I actually couldn't finish watching this film. I didn't like it at all. The story was really confusing and kept bouncing back and forth.
ReplyDeleteYes I agree the stop motion was incredible but it wasn't enough for me to sit through to the ending...in all fairness, I did watch about an hour of it so I did try to give it a chance.
Wahhh :(
