Chicken Run



Chicken Run, 2000. Chickens try to escape from a farm.

Directed by Peter Lord & Nick Park. Written by Karey Kirkpatrick, with Mark Burton & John O'Farrell; story by Lord & Park. Starring Julia Sawalha & Mel Gibson.

Concept: 2/4 (Indifferent)
Story: 1/4 (Bad)
Characters: 1/4 (Bad)
Dialog: 2/4 (Indifferent). Mostly bad, with moments of greatness.
Pacing: 3/4 (Good)
Cinematography: 3/4 (Good)
Special effects/design: 3/4 (Good)
Acting: 3/4 (Good)
Music: 2/4 (Indifferent)
Subjective Rating: 6/10 (Okay, 2/4). The story and character arcs could not be more generic, and most of the jokes aren't funny. It still manages to be an entertaining movie, though; there's enough Aardman charm to make up for the script.
Objective Rating (Average): 2.2/4 (Okay)
