	Chicken Little Movie Review
		But seriously, Chicken Little is Disney's first solo stab at a CGI kiddie flick, something that was going to happen sooner or later and which, given Disney's recent track record in animation, has had most moviegoers scared silly.
		In the 2005 version, Chicken Little (voiced by an unrecognizable Zach Braff) is a runt of a kid, the son of a widower father (Garry Marshall) who's beloved among town as a former school baseball hero.
		And while the wee Chicken Little has a great degree of detail to his feathery body, most of the characters are rather rubbery, and their environments tend to be staid.

	Movie Habit: Review of Chicken Little (2005), **
		When Chicken Little first alerts the citizens of the sleepy little hamlet called Oakey Oaks that the sky is falling, the alarm bells put into play a series of calamitous events that lead to the toppling of the village’s water tower.
		Chicken Little suffers from many problems, but its biggest is that it is only kinda funny and while Disney’s aim is to make smart, witty, computer-animated fare like those made by Pixar, the jokes here are out of whack.
		Chicken Little’s the product of a single parent home; while the fate of his mother is left untold, Chicken Little is reared by his father, who was a middle school baseball star.

	TheMovieBoy Review - Chicken Little (2005)
		After Chicken Little tries out for the school's baseball team in hopes of making his widowed father (Garry Marshall) proud, a stroke of determination allows him to hit the winning run of the championship game.
		There is a sweetness in the way Chicken Little remains resourceful even when placed in a shadow of doubt and ridicule from his peers and elders, and his rise back to the top is one that young audience members will especially get involved in and root for.
		"Chicken Little" may be a slight entertainment, but like the diminutive title character, the movie is good-natured, hard to dislike, and always able to recover after any stumble.

	"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.

	Chicken Little review (2005) Disney - Qwipster's Movie Reviews
		Zach Braff (Garden State, "Scrubs") voices Chicken Little, a nebbish young chick that gets himself into an embarrassing situation for himself and his doting father, Buck (Garry Marshall, A League of Their Own), by telling the town that the sky is falling.
		Believed to be delusional, Chicken Little finds he must prove himself to his off-put sports-loving father again by taking up baseball, and being a hero on the field.
		While I would have little problem in letting a young child see this, especially if they haven't already seen Finding Nemo, Shrek, and many of the other movies this one emulates, this is a difficult film to sit though for more mature, family film-savvy viewers.

	Chicken Little - Rotten Tomatoes
		The undercooked Chicken Little is a strain of cinematic salmonella, riddled with forced fun and forgettable characters.
		Chicken Little doesn't lay an egg, but it doesn't fly like a majestic eagle either.
		So this new Chicken Little is a hero, of sorts: a feisty little nerd in green hipster specs, who bounces off walls and babbles like Woody Allen.

	The Movie Chicks - Review - Chicken Little
		Chicken Little (Zach Braff) is an outsider in school, and after causing panic in the streets, he has only 3 friends left — Abby Mallard (Joan Cusack), Runt of the Litter (Steve Zahn), and Fish out of Water (Dan Molina).
		Chicken Little wants a shot at redemption — he gets the idea that he can be a star at his father’s sport, baseball, even though he can barely hold a bat (we won’t give away what happens during the big game).
		The problem with this movie is that the story isn’t strong enough to engage the adults in the audience and the rest of the “inside jokes” are going to be totally missed by the target group — under age 9.

		BUCK is Chicken Little's dad, a one-time high school baseball hero who wants to support his son, but feels embarrassed and let down by his alarmist reactions and behavior.
		Chicken Little urges the townsfolk to run and see the alien spaceship, but it takes off and turns invisible just as they get there (this will be tense for kids who will want Chicken Little to succeed to prove he's telling the truth).
		Chicken Little finally stands up to his dad and tells him that he (the dad) is never there for him.

	Chicken Little (2005)
		We saw the film at a 9 PM showing, attempting to avoid the little carpet rats, but even at that late hour, the theater was packed.
		Chicken Little is the story, as everyone knows, of a little bird, who gets hit by a piece of the sky and warns everyone that the sky is falling.
		The chicken IS hit a second time, but we are shown a sky that is made up entirely of alien spaceships at one part of the movie, but in another, the spaceships are just flying through the sky and only reflect what is behind them, making them invisible to those on the ground.

	CHICKEN LITTLE - DVD
		Chicken Little, for instance, makes pop culture references that don't mean anything in the context of a film whose sole purpose appears to be instructing your children to be fearful and hyper.
		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.

	A FromTheBalcony Review: Chicken Little (2005) (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Chicken Little is Disney’s first in-house computer animated release since their split with Pixar (and the demise of their 2-D department), and if this is what we are to expect in the future I will set my expectations appropriately lower next time around.
		As the film opens, Chicken Little (voiced by Zach Braff) is ringing the town bell and causing widespread panic by claiming that the sky is falling, when in actuality it’s just an acorn that has fallen.
		Chicken Little is clearly a disappointment and enough to make even the most discerning animation fan yearn for the return of Pixar and their creative genius.

	MOVIE REVIEW - CHICKEN LITTLE - JAMAICAOBSERVER.COM
		Fortunately this chicken does not produce any salmonella after-effects, as the main characters can be cute and catchy, even though the story basically runs around like a chicken without a head.
		Little and his gang are cute to look at and have a decent amount of funny and witty lines between them but not enough.
		Chicken Little is more enjoyable than Madagascar but it does not give as good a run for your money as 2000's Chicken Run.

	Family Film Guide: Chicken Little movie - Moviefone
		'Chicken Little,' featuring the voice of 'Scrubs' star Zach Braff as the titular character, ranks up there with 'Finding Nemo' and 'Monsters, Inc.' Even the under-6 set will love underdog Little and his adorable group of unpopular pals: a Cosmo-reading "ugly" duckling, a karaoke-loving pig and a fish out of water.
		Even though the film is rated G, the theme of children (Chicken Little, his friends, and the alien "kid") facing danger is present, and kids are likely to pick up on it.
		Chicken Little's widower dad was too embarrassed by the initial "sky is falling!" fiasco to really listen to his son.

		CHICKEN LITTLE is Disney's failed attempt to demonstrate that they can make a computer generated movie as good as their Pixar partners.
		CHICKEN LITTLE's visual style is as close to Pixar pictures as microwave pizza is to a freshly prepared restaurant version.
		The comedy uses gags such as having Chicken Little being forced to run around in his tidy whities, much to his brief embarrassment, and showing small animals talking in mass on their cells phones.

		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.
