 CHICKEN LITTLE - DVD

Chicken Little tries to be all about family, as you might imagine (it being a Disney production), but its message is battered into inconsequence by an undisciplined torrent of gags.
The most interesting of these is a sequence in which Chicken Little is a girl: according to Dindal/Fullmer, the character got a sex change on the advice of former Disney CEO Michael Eisner, who had the not-outrageous epiphany that being short is a bigger hurdle for an adolescent boy to overcome.

 "Chicken Little" (2005) / a review and/or comments from Christian Spotlight on the Movies
The dialogue that Chicken Little has with his friends in regards to his relationship with his father are quite powerful for a children’s movie, and though I do feel it’s a little heavy for very young children, I see it as a great tool for parents to use while opening up discussion with their kids.
There is a very touching scene in which Chicken Little and his father resolve their differences, and this seems to lead to Chicken Little to admit that he has always had an attraction to Abby (the ugly duckling).
Chicken Little’s perspective on fresh starts, friendships and acceptance is nothing short of admirable, and this little chicken is a great choice for being a big hero.

 The Flick Filosopher | Chicken Little   (Site not responding. Last check: )
No, wait, that was Beauty...) Little kids today may never get the message, from this story at least, that you're a pathetic woos if you overreact to something completely mundane and ordinary -- instead, they'll get the message, maybe, that people are unwilling to believe anything that doesn't fit into their neat preconceived mental boxes.
They're already outcast themselves, of course, so they don't have to move to embrace Chicken Little so much as they have to just welcome him to their world...
But I just can't help but consider that we're living in Chicken Little's world, where the weird little clucker on the fringes who shouts the truth is ignored, and everyone else turns into a different kind of birdbrain -- the kind who buries her head in the ground in order to deny reality.

 Chicken Little DVD Review
Chicken Little here is an undersized middle school boy (voiced by Zach Braff) who has a large, unflattering reputation to live down following his (widely-believed) misguided panic.
Chicken Little, on the other hand, had been advertised on Disney DVDs beginning in March 2004 (turning up on nearly all the studio's 2005 discs), enjoyed a marketing blitz through all of the company's avenues, had a place in both the 2004 and 2005 Macy's Thanksgiving Day parades, and bowed in 3,650 theaters.
Repeated efforts to depict Chicken Little as the latest chapter of a legacy that includes Fantasia, Alice in Wonderland, Goofy shorts, and so on are not in the slightest believable, but it's a bit refreshing to see the subjects at least claim not to have forgotten the studio's rich history.

 Chicken Little Review for Xbox - Gaming Age
Chicken Little is the game adaptation of the Disney movie released last year that saw Disney’s official transition from classical animation to the 3D CGI world.
The enemy selection is pretty boring too, you’re stuck fighting against robotic exploding Chicken Little facsimiles, small laser shooting orbs, a couple of bosses, and that’s about it.
All in all, Chicken Little is pretty decent for a movie adaptation, but really doesn’t hold a flame against other console platformers.
