Fantastic Mr Fox

Who loves Roald Dahl, please raise your hands? (Mine goes up!)

Fantastic Mr. Fox is a stop-motion animation, very unlike the Pixar animation that produces seamless animation. Yes, Mr Fox was produced by piecing frame by frame. In my opinion, this filmography is a fresh take from what I'm used to.

I never read Fantastic Mr. Fox, so whatever I watched in the movie was new to me. It's about Mr. Fox who derives some sick satisfaction from thievery, his excuse being that he's a wild animal and not one to be tamed. He and his family and other animals get chased underground by 3 farmers as a result.

I love the show. I REALLY REALLY DO. Far from what many people have said, it's not a children's movie. OK, maybe it is. But the exultation of thievery and wit here makes it a very adult one. There were several scenes when the director just over exaggerates. E.g. the incredible athletism by Kristofferson (i love the name) contrasted with his loser cousin. The script is really good. I dunno, you really have to just watch this for yourself.

Ok, one more exam tomorrow. Finance 101. At this point, I'm just so unmotivated to go on. :(
