Movie synopsis
Facing imminent death while laying eggs at Tweedy's English farm, a group of chickens, led by the determined Ginger (Julia Sawahla, BBC-TV's ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS), plan to escape their prisonlike coop. The situation goes from bad to worse when the sinister Mrs. Tweedy (Miranda Richardson) decides to stop selling eggs and use the hens as the main ingredient in chicken pot pies. However, some hope literally falls from the sky in the form of Rocky (Mel Gibson), an American rooster who promises to teach the chickens how to fly. As the hens begin their struggle to get airborne, the monstrous pie-making machine arrives, giving the chickens precious little time to make their great escape. Aardman Studios' first full-length feature film is a stunning showcase of stop-motion animation. Utilizing the unique Plasticine designs of the acclaimed WALLACE & GROMIT and CREATURE COMFORT shorts, CHICKEN RUN features vibrant visuals and colorful characters that are immediately endearing. (The naive and constantly knitting Babs, voiced by Jane Horrocks, is particularly hilarious.) With its clever writing, witty film references, and pitch-perfect combination of comedy, drama, and romance, CHICKEN RUN is one of those rare movies that genuinely appeals to viewers of every age.

Editorial reviews

"...Devilishly clever Claymation..."
Rolling Stone - Peter Travers (06/08/2000)

"...Poultry has never been so stuffed with personality....A little slapstick, a little action, rich characters and a whopping serving of wit. All baked to near-perfection." -- 3.5 out of 4 stars
USA Today - Susan Wloszczyna (06/21/2000)

"...[CHICKEN RUN] will hypnotize the young...[And] is packed with the kind of detail that adults will like, too....It's immensely satisfying, a divinely relaxed and confident film."
New York Times - Elvis Mitchell (06/21/2000)

"...Aardman's laid a golden egg which offers plenty of poultry powered thrills..." -- 4 out of 5 stars
Total Film - Dan Jolin (07/01/2000)

"...Pleasures abound, particularly the dizzying pie-machine sequence." -- 3 out of 5 stars -- A Satisfying Rental
Premiere - Christopher Kelly (12/01/2000)

"...CHICKEN RUN is a spectacular piece of stop-motion, clay-figure animation....A world of visual miracles..."
Rolling Stone - Peter Travers (07/06/2000)

"...The humor in CHICKEN RUN is genial and playful, able to treat the wildest concepts with total seriousness....The film never loses its priceless stamp of individuality..."
Los Angeles Times - Kenneth Turan (06/21/2000)

"...A magical new animated film that looks and sound like no other....Not only funny and wicked, clever and visually inventive, but kind and sweet. Tender and touching..."
Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert (06/23/2000)

A very fun movie for the whole family. I have one on DVD and vhs. A movie that should be cherished and savoured for the ingenious idea that depicts a chickens life.

Review For: Chicken Run (VHS, 2000)

This is a great kids movie, but also it is something adults can enjoy also. It teaches valuable lessons. One lesson to be learned is that if you lie, you will get caught somehow (as did the rooster when he said he could fly). The most fun part of the movie were the escape attempts. We thought that was very cute.

CHICKEN RUN

Review For: Chicken Run (VHS, 2000)

WELL, I MUST BE HONEST - I DID NOT SEE THE WHOLE MOVIE, I WAS BUSY W/ A 2 YEAR OLD. BUT WHAT I DID SEE WAS PRETTY CUTE! AND IT DID CATCH THE 2 YEAR OLDS EYES HERE AND THERE. HE JUST STOOD THERE TO WATCH IT FOR A MINUTE OR SO THEN BACK TO PLAYING AND SO FORTH. AND HE LOVED THE BIKE THAT THE CHICKEN IN THE SHOW RIDES. : )

Review For: Chicken Run (VHS, 2000)

I bought this movie because our daughter had seen it at a friends house and liked it. It's okay, but it's definitely not my favorite kids movie.
