Fantastic Mr. Fox 1-Disc Box Set DVD

Fantastic Mr. Fox is a stop-motion animated feature from 2009 drawn from the broader source children's novel that follows a clever fox named Mr. Fox who, having promised his wife years ago that he would give up his thieving ways, finds himself drawn into one last elaborate raid on the broader farms of three particularly nasty farmers, prompting an ever-escalating war between the broader fox community and the men trying to flush them out. The tone strikes a confident balance between dry comedic adventure and reflective family-flavored storytelling, leaning into the broader source novel's tradition of treating its animal protagonists as full storybook heroes. Watching it feels like a heartfelt animated chapter book delivered with extraordinary care.
