Fantastic Imagining

This is Roald Dahl's Fantastic Mr Fox, you can see the original story in there, but remaking that in stop motion won't direct your film at a very broad audience. Whereas Anderson's take on the story, adding wit, humour, cartoon caper, dysfunctional family oddities, & underground communities of animals and you've got a film appealing to the little ones and the adults.

I didn't have any expectations of this film, just took my mum along because we used to listen to the audio book. And I was very pleasantly surprised. Really really enjoyed it. I thought it was well done, funny, and nicely extended from the original storyline.

If you want a faithful re-telling, this isn't it. If you want an extended, capering adventure, this is it.
