France is scary!
Set in WWII, this animated movie portrays the life of a little pigeon with a big heart named Valiant. Wanting more out of his life he decides to leave the nest and join the Homing Pigeon Service. But life was never going to be easy for the little pigeon but he proves that spirit and heart is all one needs to be a hero!
Valiant doesn’t try to be anything it isn’t unlike so many other animations, and comes jam packed with a great sense of British humour. McGregor, Gervais and Cleese are the perfect voices for their respective parts to make this an all round good British animation that holds it own. It does have a certain charm that most of its competition fails to comprehend. It may not be the fanciest, most exciting animation, but its solid, and most of all British.

After looking forward to this DVD for months it proved to be a sad disappointment.
Some great voices and characterisation from the likes of Ewan McGregor, Ricky Gervais and John Cleese, but a wafer thin plot (even by childrens' animated feature film standards) and no reason to watch it a second time. -

Christian Slater (True Romance, Mobsters, Broken Arrow) is set for the title role of Igor, the hunchbacked... Read more
