Editorial Review:

Amazon.co.uk Review:
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 The jokes rarely have anything to do with the characters, but are mostly pop-culture references that are sadly out of date.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

- "I'd Like to See the Movie They Make About You Now."
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. ... Read More:

- A confusing Disney animation
I have to admit the initial half an hour of Little Chicken captured my full interest. The noticeable Disney's humour and values became evident. The sequences of introducing the story and characters is well delivered. At this point, the movie looked promising and a bright Disney's prospect.

The middle parts ruined the movie completely. The rich futuristic images and the too many characters are the damaging blows. A great deal of confusion crept in my mind. A question of "What on earth is happening?" kept pondering in my mind whilst watching the animation. The aliens invasion and objects kind of triggered the confusion and the movie coherently is muddled and completely looses the plot. The movie became unwatchable and I genuinely felt ... Read More:

- Hits the spot for the target audience even it adults hate it.
5 stars because that if what my kids would give it and it is a kids' film after all. I saw this at the cinema and thought it was really awful but for some inexplicable reason my kids absolutely adored it. I am now going to be forced to buy it as we have rented it twice since it came out on DVD and they still ask to see it on a regular basis.

- The Worst film ever made!!!
This is the worst film I can ever remember seeing the plot was pathetic the charcters were lowsy the voice overs were stupid DON'T BUY THIS FILM there are 31 I saw used and new (hint hint) save the £10 it takes to buy this and take your children to a pizza restaurant they'll enjoy it more

- Me and my little daughter we both had a lot of fun watching it
I really liked this movie, and, what is even more important, my 6-years old daughter liked it too. It is a really sweet history about a little guy (Chicken Little), half-orphaned, being raised by a very caring and loving but just a little overhelmed dad (Buck Cluck). Being little and wearing big glasses he is of course the dreamed target of class bullies, but - as it is usual with the nerds - he has a bunch of friends between other oucasts: a really ugly duck girl (Ugly Duckling), a really obese, asthma ridden pig (Runt of the Litter) and a foreign exchange student, totally fearless, always happy, but just a little... odd (Fish out of Water). And let it be said - this is one of the most likeable and bravest bunch of "losers" I ever saw.
