    “Chicken Little” Movie Review

    “Chicken Little” Plot Summary

    After ruining his reputation with the town, a courageous chicken must come to the rescue of his fellow citizens when aliens start an invasion.

    a nice movie with great messages to kids

    2005’s version of Chicken Little had me from the start with its clever poster: The End Is Near, with CL’s rear facing me. I laughed at the poster a lot. Unfortunately, it wasn’t as entertaining as I’d hoped it would have been. I enjoyed hearing Zach Braff and Gary Marshall perform as Chicken Little and his dad respectively, as they are both 2 of comedy’s bright stars

    The film follows Chicken Little (Braff), who was made a social outcast for claiming that the sky was falling. Now, later on, Chicken happens to notice the same things he noticed the first time. What to do?I loved the messages the film sends to our youth, and the parents of the world. A message sent to kids is this: if something’s on your mind, if something’s bothering you, tell someone. Don’t hide it in, because the truth is always the right thing to say. What a great message to send in a children’s film. The other message sent to the parents here is this: Parents, listen to your children, and stand by them no matter what. Both of these themes are expressed throughout the film, which is barely above 80 minutes, perfect for an animated children’s movie

    I, being 17, felt left out when I watched this because I couldn’t stay interested as much as my siblings were. It’s an excellent film for kids ages 5-10, above average for 11-13, and mediocre to poor to anyone above those ages. I recommend Chicken Little to any young child and I also recommend that a parent watches it with said child, because it’s a great family movie that you’ll enjoy

    CHICKEN LITTLE 6/10 –spy

    “The Emperor’s New Groove” Movie Review

    “The Emperor’s New Groove” Plot Summary

    Emperor Kuzco is turned into a llama by his ex-administrator Yzma, and must now regain his throne with the help of Pacha, the gentle llama herder. add synopsis

    Funny and highly original film.

    I really enjoyed this movie. After some almost disastrous attempts at direct to video sequels, I was hugely surprised to see for once a wonderfully funny and highly original film. The animation is spot on, with beautiful backgrounds and well-drawn characters that are also likable. They are also very funny, especially Kronk, who looked similar to Gaston in Beauty and the Beast. The music by John Debney and Sting was hip and memorable. Usually in direct to video sequels(which of course this is not) the songs are just awful, and sound like they were improvised in five minutes. A good example is Cinderella 2. The songs here have funny lyrics, are well sung and sound as though the composers took some extreme lengths to make it perfect. The voice talents are exceptional. David Spade’s acting ability is somewhat limited but for this type of character, a selfish emperor called Kuzco who is turned into a llama by his adviser, it works wonderfully. John Goodman was very earnest as Pacha, and the villainess Yzma, who I would pick over the really bland Morgana from the Little Mermaid sequel any day, was played to perfection by Eartha Kitt. The script is funny and touching, and while sometimes it isn’t as laugh-out-loud funny as some animated films, it has a huge impact on the well told story. I have no real criticism for this movie, other than it is probably too short. Anyway 9/10. Bethany Cox.
