Highly Overrated But Still Good

it is finally so absorbing because it plays like a lyrical road odyssey that’s also a detective story.

Modern Disney without Pixar is like peanut butter without chocolate -- it's good, but it has the potential to be so much better. Chicken Little isn't bad, it just isn't a classic. It's not very memorable. One of my kids enjoyed it, the other was pretty bored. So overall, I'd say this movie is average.

Awful animation , Awful story , Awful comedy , Awful direction and Awful movie

In 2005, Disney really hit rock bottom when they felt the need to pander to its audience the way a Dreamworks movie of back then would, by releasing Chicken Little. Originally intended as a tale starring an overreacting grim female chicken going to summer camp where she would uncover a nefarious plot planned by her camp counselor against her hometown, Michael Eisner suggested it to the film's writer and director, Mark Dindal, to change Chicken Little into a male because as Dindal recalled, "if you're a boy and you're short, you get picked on." The result is a poorly made, unfunny, pandering mess that feels more like it came from some second rate CG studio trying to copy the Dreamworks formula.The story at first seems to be about the titular character Chicken Little as an underdog trying to overcome the incident of scaring the town over an acorn that he felt came from the sky, but then he joins the baseball team, and then the sky turns into aliens, and meanwhile the main character is trying to win a relationship with his father, and.....yeah, the movie doesn't know what to focus on. The father-son relation is passable as a subplot, but if you can't decide between baseball and aliens, then you really should have rewritten this and tried again. If that's not enough, for a movie that throws a lot of jokes out, barely any of them hit the mark, with mediocre visual gags, animal jokes that don't make sense (a fish drives in a water bowl car, how does he get out though?), horrible pop culture references, and really bad one-liners. When the funniest character in the movie is a fish literally named fish out of water, there's a problem.You'd think this movie would at least look good visually, but considering Disney made this without the help of Pixar, the animation sticks out like a sore thumb. The characters look ugly, the movements are wonky, the colors don't mix well, and while the effects animation is well done, it doesn't impress me as much as it should. I will admit though, the designs of the aliens do look pretty unique, and I don't think I'll ever see any designs like that ever again. But the worst aspect of the film is how mean spirited it is. In shows like The Simpsons and South Park, while the characters are a bunch of moronic jerks, they're played out so hysterically that there's no way you can take them seriously, and they always know when to relent on their actions and let the main characters shine. In this film though, not only do the townsfolk berate Chicken Little so much that it becomes sickening, but they only congratulate him when he succumbs to stuff that they desire, like winning a ball game. Even after he saves the town, it feels like nobody learned anything, and even the father....wow. I mean, there's being neglectful, and then there's trying to distance yourself as far away from your son as possible. The father may have seen the error of his ways, but I still fail to see any sort of dignity in him given how little he seems to acknowledge of his son, even when the son needs him most. Thus, even when he apologizes and makes up with Little, I felt no sympathy and only wanted to fry him up for dinner.Overall, it's a good thing Pixar and Disney have been working together creatively and visually over the years, because this was a sour way for Disney to enter into computer animation. Not only is this movie unfunny, pandering, stupid and unfocused, but it's just ugly in visuals and in tone, and I've never felt so disgusted watching a Disney movie in my life, which shows how the movie being a bad adaptation of its source material is the LEAST of its problems. It's a good thing Disney has given us better talking animal films like Robin Hood, The Lion King and Zootopia, because this was a bad egg that should have been smashed rather than hatched.

Next autumn Chicken Little will be 10 years old.The movie laid forgotten, as a long row of animated animal movies followed like The Wild.Releasing the movie under the 2005 Harry Pottter movie could had been the wrong move.This is about Chicken Little that causes mayhem is in his city filled with anthro animals, as he says the the World is ending.As said the World nearly ends with an alien invasion.But Chicken Little and his friends saves the day.The movie ends with the animals singing Don't Go Breaking My Heart by Elton John.Despite the movie is a mess, and there are too much going on at times it's not the worst Disney movie ever.If you and your Family love some Innocent CGI animal fun try to find this movie at the second hand stores.7/10
