Chicken Little (2005)

After Chicken Little causes widespread panic--when he mistakes a falling acorn for a piece of the sky--the young chicken is determined to restore his reputation. But just as things are starting to go his way, a real piece of the sky lands on his head. I don't get why 'Chicken Little' is so low in here but anyways i loved this movie then and i love it even more now. I used to have figures and remember playing even the game for it more times than once. The animation is excellent, the voice acting even better and the storyline so adorable just give it a try. (A+)

I can't believe that this is a Disney movie. It has nothing of what is known to be Disney's strong aspects. I'd rather watch the other Disney lowpoint Home On the Range several times than watching this downer only one more time. Disney's earlier films like Hunchback of Notre Dame also had a dark and at times depressive tone to it, but this mess is so over the top mean spirited that it is just unpleasant. The only points in the story we get to know our main character is when he is either bullied by his school mates or neglected BY HIS OWN FATHER!!! Yeah, what a nice message from the happiest place on earth!We never get any believable relief to this downer of a cast of characters, because in some way the crew working on the film felt it was more needed to throw in lots of chaotic action scenes and tons of pop culture references. It serves no purpose at all and only dates the movie. It doesn't help either that the CGI mostly is hideous. The aliens, even though pointless, were the only designs which were kind of creative.Honestly, this has to be the worst film to ever be put out by the house of mouse. A mess of a story, characters who are either pointless, weak or just plain unlikable, CGI which was mediocre at best and no heart put into it. See you when I'm finished complaining about how more heart-felt movies like Treasure Planet bombed at the box office while this made money.

After ruining his reputation with the town, a courageous chicken (Zach Braff) must come to the rescue of his fellow citizens when aliens start an invasion.Not surprisingly, when you think about great Disney movies, you don't think of "Chicken Little". N one goes to Disney World and hopes to run into Chicken Little. While this is fine entertainment to put on for kids, it isn't one that anyone would prefer over the classics. They say every film is somebody's favorite... but this might be the exception.I would like to personally thank John Lasseter for canceling plans of a sequel. Although I think there is a story to be told about an ugly duckling, and if told the right way could be empowering for women, I suspect it was not the right film for the time.

Having earlier embarrassed himself by erroneously claiming that the sky is falling, a young chicken finds himself at odds with what to do upon discovering a planned alien attack in this undeniably imaginative if underwhelming take on the classic story. While the aliens and much of their gadgetry seems lifted from 'War of the Worlds', there is a lot of interest to this part of the film with cloaking devices, deadly weapons and one surefire intriguing spacecraft. Half the film elapses though before the title character discovers the aliens and the first half is frankly a mess. There are at least three or four loud songs and montages to pad out the running time and Chicken Little's three best friends are hard characters to warm to. One is fat, the other is ugly and the third speaks gibberish, and the film goes out of its way to make jokes at the expense of each character's signature condition (including short stature with Chicken Little himself). The film does have some heart though with a strained relationship between Chicken Little and his father that is tested and tried throughout the course of the film. In fact, had the film concentrated more on the title character's desire to make his father proud and less on crude jokes (particularly regarding weight and ugliness), the first half of the movie might have had considerable value. As it is, 'Chicken Little' at least ends on a high note with a more impressive second half, including some great animated special effects and a deliciously exaggerated film within the film at the very end, but it does feel somewhat like too little too late.
