Or at least I think it should have been funnier. But then how funny can you make a cartoon where the chickens are trying to escape being ground up?

Get this one for the whole family. The hens are hysterical, and Mel as the hot shot rooster is perfect casting.

This is good fun but can give kids a yes, the grass really is greener on the other side of the fence view, which is not all together a bad thing.

Cute, and creative, but not really funny--unless you're a kid. Yeah yeah, there were Stalag 17 and Great Escape references, but overall a bit more cutesy than clever. I don't know--it's somehow ...

Cute, and creative, but not really funny--unless you're a kid. Yeah yeah, there were Stalag 17 and Great Escape references, but overall a bit more cutesy than clever. I don't know--it's somehow misfired. Too long also. If you want to see Nick Park at his cleverest and best, see the Wallace and Gromit flicks--they rule.

I agree this is not a laugh hysterically movie (except for one time when my fiance said "It will be just like a Steve McQueen movie if she starts bouncing the ball against the wall" and the very next scene she did!) but there are a lot of chuckles. Lots of subtle movie references (Sweeney Todd and the meat pies) but you have to pay attention. Unfortunately the disc had some rough spots and kept "stalling" which is SOOOOOOO annoying! BTW, as someone who used to work at a chicken processing plant, the pie machine bit was great!
