    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.

    For a CGI movie this was quite good. Ricky Gervais does get on your thrupney bits a little though!!

The company's next animated feature marks a departure from the fluffy animals of films like Over the Hedge or Madagascar, and aims instead to plough the rich Hollywood furrow that is mad science. Christian Slater (True Romance, Mobsters, Broken Arrow) is set for the title role of Igor, the hunchbacked... Read more
