## Description

Product Description A crafty fox finds himself and his family targeted for death by the three dumb, plug-ugly farmers who tire of sharing their chickens with the critter. desertcart.com Fantastic Mr. Fox is one of the few animated features that is hilariously great entertainment for kids, and absolutely engaging entertainment for adults. From the animation to the story to the direction (by Wes Anderson) to the acting of the voice-over stars, Fantastic Mr. Fox ranks with the likes of Toy Story or the Wallace & Gromit films as robustly entertaining for movie lovers of all ages. George Clooney lends his voice and talents to the character of Mr. Fox, who's recently retired from his long, successful career of stealing poultry to become a journalist. His wife (Meryl Streep) is pregnant, and his son, Ash (the Anderson staple Jason Schwartzman), and nephew, the golden-boy Kristofferson (Eric Anderson), have a low-level rivalry that feels all too human. The story, based on the Roald Dahl tale, is slim, involving the return, just one more time, of Mr. Fox to his old profession--and the repercussions that may befall his pals from the mean farmers as a result. But the true charms of Fantastic Mr. Fox are in the smart dialogue, in the immersive animation that keeps the characters' faces just as expressive as humans', and in the very believable family and friend dynamics we can all relate to. When Clooney's Fox and Bill Murray's Badger get into "cussin'" matches, you can't help but crack up. Fantastic Mr. Fox is one of the all-time best films for the whole family. --A.T. Hurley

Review: Fantastic Mr. Fox DVD - Interesting... artsy. Lots of celebrity voices you'll recognize. Some adult themes, but in my opinion good for 10 years and up. We have a 'boys club house' and it has a DVD player - so I stock a few classics and I liked this one. Having said all of this, I never hesitate to update my reviews should new info seem useful. All of my reviews reflect my honest, personal experience with the reviewed item - your experience may be different. I am not influenced by any outside source. I receive/accept NO free products or discounts that are not available to all shoppers- ever. I am a verified purchaser - not a compensated reviewer. I have been doing honest, trustworthy reviews for well over 25 years with desertcart - posting thousands and thousands of reviews - which have been viewed over 8.2 million times to date. I am NOT a fake reviewer. BOTTOM LINE: I pay for ALL my stuff, just like you do - with hard earned dollars!
Review: A marriage of masterminds :) - My rating is more of a 4.5 Thanks for reading! I was thoroughly prepared to enjoy this film before even putting it on. It's weird to look back on a life and realize how much of it is astoundingly blurry. To have no memorable relationships. To feel slighted by tragedy. To not now simmer in the joy that is often expected with nostalgia. When it comes to novels, however, the recollections are of a stark contrast in terms of clarity. I remember the first book I ever read (𝑪𝒉𝒂𝒓𝒍𝒐𝒕𝒕𝒆'𝒔 𝑾𝒆𝒃). The first book I ever owned (𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑮𝒊𝒗𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝑻𝒓𝒆𝒆). The first book I ever loved. The first author I felt connected with. 𝑭𝒂𝒏𝒕𝒂𝒔𝒕𝒊𝒄 𝑴𝒓. 𝑭𝒐𝒙 (2009) Is only one of the many books from Roald Dahls’ collections that has given me comfort when it was needed the most. To push play, for me, is like bumping into an old friend. . . . There is not enough to be sad about the meticulous attention to detail taken in the animation and cinematography Department; a total of 535 different puppets were constructed for the movie and it is perhaps even more surprising to know that the model for Mr.Fox took approximately 7 months to design (and 6 different ones had to be made). This dedication - brutal, and risky - more than pays off as it captures the essence of imagination and creativity needed when appealing to even the youngest of audience members. Enhancing the puppets with fur from their real-life animal counterparts in addition to a profoundly conscious attention to detail makes every frame a real treat for the eyes (I paused this film so much just to take it in!). The set design - a mix of colors associated with autumn, the great outdoors, and Dahl’s own hometown - an open invitation delivered with warmth and infused with passion for the defiantly absurd. It’s of no doubt that the target audiences for Dahl and Anderson have their significant differences.Sure, an adult is perfectly capable of finding enjoyment out of the sentimentally wrapped source material: But 90 pages worth of a fox outsmarting a trio of scroogey stooges can only go so far. A prosperous marriage of masterminds: Anderson Illustrates his ability to construct a film that is appropriate for the family that won’t lull its older viewers to sleep. It calls back regularly to Dahl’s style of humor and wit through dialogue that jabs without bruising. While it is fair to say that at times the interactions between characters are wildly opportunistic, the ironic and spontaneous jests are highly preferable to space that is empty and disproportionality pretentious. And just so I know I said it: substituting a pseudonym for foul language isn’t just a practical move. It’s cussing brilliance. The divergence from the source material is hard to ignore, but the context in which Mr. Fox was originally created is largely to blame for Dahl’s unique vision; having lost a child to measles and witnessing another one be affected by “water on the brain” it should be of no surprise that ‘Fantastic Mr. Fox’ places exclusionary interest on its primary protagonist that is burdened by the responsibilities of protecting his immediate family and ensuring its survival. The paradigm involving paternal roles and related values is a commonly explored vein in much of Anderson's work, so it's only natural to see some gravitation towards this particular story from Dahl's entire collection; the inclusion of a dynamic that differs from the source material (one involving Mr. Foxs’ son ‘Ash’ and a visiting relative) allows for some much appreciated elaboration on the themes found in both ‘FMF’ and other publications that aren’t so willingly adapted for the purposes of cinematic entertainment or distraction in an unexpectedly emotional way. Through Mr. Fox we see some potential for change (and the importance of recognizing our own faults). The rift between him and his quirky misfit of a son (‘Ash’) is depleted in an authentic and heart-felt manner. And of course there is a gentle reminder that life goes on: With or without our enthusiastic participation. Alterations to classics are understandably met with pushback - but when made with responsibility and adoration they can be accepted as the inevitable result of modernization and time passing by with little regard for what gets taken away with it; this adaptation stretches the content of the novel it’s inspired by without breaking its spine or depreciating its value. I would recommend! 𝑾𝒆'𝒓𝒆 𝒂𝒍𝒍 𝒅𝒊𝒇𝒇𝒆𝒓𝒆𝒏𝒕 [𝑯𝒊𝒎 𝒆𝒔𝒑𝒆𝒄𝒊𝒂𝒍𝒍𝒚] 𝑩𝒖𝒕 𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒓𝒆'𝒔 𝒔𝒐𝒎𝒆𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒌𝒊𝒏𝒅 𝒐𝒇 𝒇𝒂𝒏𝒕𝒂𝒔𝒕𝒊𝒄 𝒂𝒃𝒐𝒖𝒕 𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒕, 𝒊𝒔𝒏'𝒕 𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒓𝒆?

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An absolute gem that gets better with every watch!
*by J***I on April 16, 2025*

The Fantastic Mr. Fox is pure stop-motion magic! Wes Anderson’s unique style shines through every frame, combining witty dialogue, quirky characters, and beautiful visuals into a clever and heartwarming adventure. The voice cast — especially George Clooney as Mr. Fox — is spot-on, and the humor works for both kids and adults. The animation is charmingly detailed, and the soundtrack adds the perfect touch of whimsy. It's smart, stylish, and full of personality.
