From Amazon.co.uk

A classic fable gets fused with War of the Worlds in Disney's Chicken Little. In the small town of Oakey Oaks, young Chicken Little (voiced by Zach Braff, Garden State) struggles to live down the embarrassment of having once thought the sky was falling. But when he gets struck again by a hexagonal, sky-camouflaged, hi-tech doohickey, he and his friends Ugly Duckling (Joan Cusack, School of Rock), Runt of the Litter (Steve Zahn, Sahara), and Fish Out of Water discover that aliens are preparing to invade Earth--but since no one believed Chicken Little the first time, why would they believe him now? Though kids will enjoy the bright whizz-bang action sequences of Chicken Little, discerning parents will find the movie tedious. Technically, it has the computer animation quality of Pixar--but with none of their intelligence, heart, or simple storytelling skill. The basic idea of connecting the fable to aliens is amusing, but the script routinely bogs down in clumsy father-son issues that seem like material edited out of Finding Nemo. The jokes rarely have anything to do with the characters, but are mostly pop-culture references that are sadly out of date. The action sequences were obviously created with the inevitable video game in mind, for which the movie is little more than an advertisement. Chicken Little falls flat. --Bret Fetzer

4.0 out of 5 stars Plenty of fun in another standard kids great 18 May 2006
Format:DVD
This is a fun, typical, children's story of a hapless, endearing character on the fringes of the kids social circle who discovers something amazing - but will anyone listen?

The animation is the standard brilliant we've come to expect and the central character works well because of what this brings to the way you identify with him. Great movement and facial characteristics.

The story is predictable for the adults but a good romp for the kids, and humourous enough for us old folk to sit through and enjoy. The aliens are good and evil and some of the details and little sub-events are not as expected. Good imagination as always.

I think this will be a standard favourite for the kids and will be watched and re-watched.

We all know the story of Chicken Little (Zach Braff), the poor little chicken who tried to warn the town that the sky was falling only to have it turn out to be an acorn. But what happened to him after the story ended? That's what this movie tells us.

Turns out that Chicken Little is in middle school. His exploits of a year ago are an embarrassment to his father, Buck Cluck (Garry Marshall). And the fact that there are commemorative plates and an upcoming movie based on the story haven't done much for the father/son relationship.

Despite Buck's constant pleas, Chicken Little is determined to prove his worth to his father. And, just as he's about to put the whole sky is falling nonsense behind him, it happens again. What should Chicken Little do this time?

Okay, let's get the bad out of the way right now. Yes, the story is a little slow in the first half and a little weird and frantic in the second half. And that second half might scare kids until they learn what is really happening. But there really is so much to love.

Even though the first half is slow, there are so many wonderful gags in it. Chicken Little's friends like Fish Out of Water and Runt of the Little are a hoot. One scene has a background joke I love. And once the sky falls a second time, things really pick up. As I said, it goes off in a weird direction, but they manage to make it work. This isn't something serious, but it is fun, and that's all that truly matters. Having said that, there is an important moral about parent child communication that gets a tad preachy at times. I don't mind too much.

No, this isn't a grand slam. But it is plenty of fun to entertain the young and young at heart.

3.0 out of 5 stars finger licking okay-ish 13 May 2007
By M. O. HAYNES VINE™ VOICE
Format:DVD
If you don't have kids to entertain then stop right there and rent something else that's funnier e.g. 'Over The Hedge' or 'Happy Feet'. If you do have kids to entertain then look no further than this light-weight father-son story which retells the classic fable with a sci-fi twist. The animation is stylish but a little 'empty' feeling in comparison to the richness of environments portrayed in similar films and at times smacks of a HD Xbox-360 cut scene. That said, if you liked 'Mars Attacks' or those green tentacled guys in 'The Simpsons' and can avoid barfing up at the sentimental clap-trap towards the end then why not give it a try.
