The Fantastic Mr. Fox

Writer and director Wes Anderson made another impeccably mounted film with a killer cast that fails to deliver to its target audience but will please Anderson followers. Based on the classic by British writer Roald Dahl, the story is about a sly fox who outsmarts three means farmers while stealing their poultry. Unlike Nick Park whose film pleases children and adults alike, Anderson gets swayed by style in his attention for detail that's a sight to see in this beautiful stop-motion animation. George Clooney and Meryl Streep along with Anderson regulars Jason Schwartzman and Bill Murray are perfect as the voices but can't save the film. YRCinema's coverage of films on DVD.
