Fantastic Mr. Fox (PG)

Plot
Mr. Fox (Clooney), a fox with a high opinion of himself, is struggling to set aside his chicken-stealing habits and settle down to family life. When a trio of wicked farmers relocate to his woods, the temptation to show how fantastic he is proves too great...

Verdict
Genuinely original: a silly, hilarious and oddly profound adaptation for adult-sized children
