Kurczaki na farmie złej Pani Tweedy marzą o lepszym życiu, a mądra kura o imieniu Ginger snuje plany jak z niej wylecieć już na dobre! Jest tylko jeden problem – kurczaki nie potrafią fruwać… Wszystkie próby ucieczki spalają na panewce. Dopiero kogut Rocky podejmuje się nauczyć latać Ginger i jej pierzastych przyjaciół. Nie wie jak ciężki kawałek drobiowej roboty go czeka, jednak wspólna praca, determinacja i odrobina szczęścia pozwolą nieustraszonemu stadku na ostatnią, śmiałą próbę w walce o wolność!

Great fun. The animation is extremely high standard, breathing life into the plasticine figures. The concentration camp atmosphere is depicted with amazing precision; I often found myself remembering war movies set during Hitler’s dictatorship.

Now, this is the kind of fun I like. A straightforward story that relies heavily on parodying the tropes of prison films and quoting famous movies across several genres (I don’t think anyone has spoofed so well those two scenes from the second Indiana Jones), but that it’s also original and lively on its own, packed with punching jokes and brilliant narrative energy, only from the fact that the humanised heroes are actually silly hens. Also brilliant are the editing, the camera rides over and through the “death” camp, and the sophisticated visual presentation of the villains, focused on the light and accompanying their entrances with dramatic elements like lightning strikes. It’s not as entertaining, creative and solid as the best Pixar (especially Toy Story 3, also set in a prison), but it’s a beautiful plasticine homage to film adventure from creators who understand it and know how to fly it. 90%

Watching Chicken Run, a striking parallel to concentration camps will certainly come to mind, but in this case it is a rather humorous and lightly handled one (which is not to denigrate the horrific reality of the concentration camps in any way). The chickens, led by the feisty Ginger and the wannabe aviator Rocky, decide to confront the demonic Mrs. Tweedy and her submissive husband - because who would want to end up in the pies - and their dream flight to freedom is not without its comic twists and turns. Thanks to the short running time, the film passes (or flies?) by like water and does not get boring. I enjoyed watching Mr. Tweedy helplessly witnessing the antics of his chickens, and of course I enjoyed the final "fling". A weaker four stars!

Aardman is definitely a studio that has a lot to offer, mainly because there are not many studios doing stop motion animation anymore. Furthermore, their clay characters are simply fantastic. Exaggerated, entertaining, and recognizable. "Chicken Run" is not my favorite film, but you cannot deny the fun and creativity it brings. And the execution...
