after view the film and i be truly shocked to see such a high rating on imdb . the fantastic mr. fox be an adaption of a beloved child classic and portray the story of the smooth and slick protagonist mr. fox ( or foxy ) a he attempt one last heist to steal from the dreaded boggins and bunce and bean . that right and one short and one fat and one lean and or however it go . i do not quite know where to start with my criticism . well and i be in my late teen and be never a fan of roald dahl and but i like his material well enough and have read a few of his book a a child and see matilda and charlie and the chocolate factory over and over again . this film and however and struggle for an audience . be it aim at child . adult . i be still unsure . many of the joke would bore a child and especially a mr. fox visit a lawyer for example and or complains about be poor . also and an audience of ( i be assume ) child be expect to sympathise with a character who steal and kill chicken . i be all for the food chain and but you practically see mr. fox bite down on their neck . surely that a bit much . and also and the plot . well and it kind of boring . i stay only with the hope of it get well and but instead i just get more and more annoyed at mr fox and his son ash for make stupid decision . the humour and meanwhile and fall flat . i laugh only once or twice and even though i specifically recognise attempt at joke . i think part of it be that the voice acting be so incredibly flat and monotoned . the voice actor have no sense of comic timing and instead aim for the subtlety of humour that only work with certain medium . george clooney aim to portray mr. fox a charming and sleek and but his voice have no character . meryl streep show no emotion and i do not even realise bill murray have a role until the end credit and and ash and twelve year old in fox year and sound like he about 30. i love animation and particularly stop motion and but the visual style actually creep me out a little bit . character be tall and spindly and lack any warmth of design . they move with very little fluidity and often the animation be jerky and strange . there be also a distinctive amixed medium feel and a 2d component be add in sporadically and unsuccessfully . character look straight at the camera and talk while it be very awkward . there be one or two moment when kylie look straight at the camera and do not move and have swirl on his eyeball . it actually freak me out . fantastic mr. fox have so much potential . lot of people still seem to like it look at the review . maybe it just wasn not for me .
