There is much to recommend "Fantastic Mr. Fox." The wonderfully-realized stop-motion animation for one. And the inventive sets and characters. And the stellar voices reading the lines. But for some reason it left me cold. Maybe it was my mood, maybe it was the uncomfortable seat, maybe it was the horrendous print with the big scratch line on the right side of the frame (that, most likely), but I have to say I wasn't engaged. I give it a so-so rating for an amusing story about how our nature will come out, no matter what our stated intentions.Rated PG. 87 minutes. Wes Anderson - Director ? Writer (screenplay) / producer, Roald Dahl - Writer (novel) Noah Baumbach - Writer (screenplay), Allison Abbate - Producer, Jeremy Dawson - Producer, Scott Rudin - Producer, Tristan Oliver - Cinematographer, Alexandre Depslat - Composer, Nelson Lowry - Production Designer, Andrew Weisblum - Editor.
