The writing is matter of fact, and to the point. The color scheme virtually screams his name as earth tones dominate.

What a wondrous film to look at.Īnderson has done a fantastic job capturing the true nuttiness of Dahl's story, while keeping the look and feel of the movie perfectly Wes Anderson-like. It moves and sways with the character's movements, and at other times it moves completely on its own. The characters are richly detailed, lending to a wonderfully put together look. The movie's main achievement is the animation that is unlike any anything else out there. When the farmers find out that a fox has been stealing their food, all out war is declared as they use everything from guns to dirt movers to get Mr.

All of them are voiced by the obligatory stars, like Bill Murray and so on. Badgers, beavers, weasels, and rats just to name a few. Not so much ' Ocean's Eleven,' more like 'O, Brother Where Art Thou.' Fox has a charisma and bravado that only Clooney can provide. Fox and you get the feeling he's channeling the crazier George Clooney days. So he comes up with three ingenious master plans to break into each of the three farms in order to steal the farmer's specialty foods like chicken, roast turkey, and alcoholic apple cider.

Fox has moved from his fox hole, he can't give up his foxy ways. The three farmers that own the farms are Boggis, Bunce, and Bean ("One fat, one small, and one mean" – as the rhyme goes). Fox is tired of living like a fox, in a hole, and so he decides to buy a nice quaint house that is located in the middle of a large tree overlooking three farms. He's good at it, especially when he uses a patented bandit mask (an essential tool for all fox banditry). Fox' is the latest from the ever quirky Wes Anderson, director of such dryly humorous films as ' Bottle Rocket,' 'Rushmore,' and 'The Royal Tenenbaums.' Here Anderson tries his hand at creating a stop motion animated picture based on Roald Dahl's famous children's book.
