Stream of the Week- Chicken Little

"Every day is a new day."




A young chicken is dealing with being an outsider in his small community. A year ago, Chicken Little felt something drop on his head. He believed the sky was falling so he alerted the entire town. They didn't believe him. They ostracized him for being different, and he was even more outcast than before. Most of all, his father was disappointed that he couldn't be "normal" like the other kids in town. After winning a huge baseball game and gaining some trust from the community, Chicken Little finds another piece of the sky. He and his nerdy friends end up going on an adventure when that fallen piece of the sky goes back to it's mothership taking their friend Fish with it. The piece that fell from the sky ends up being a panel from an alien spaceship. As they board the ship, Chicken Little and his friends being to believe that the aliens are there to invade the planet. One of the creatures follows them back off the spaceship and gets left behind. This alien being left behind leads to a full force attack on the town which proves everything Chicken Little ever said right.




I love kid movies because as you get older you being to notice the things that were thrown in there for the adults. For example, the message of the film was about communication between parents and children. Chicken Little's father, Buck, even says "You have to be ready to listen to your child even if they have nothing to say." This message is more for the adults in the room who put this film on for the children. The kids just get to be entertained by the story and graphics. There's a science behind making these movies that I would venture to claim takes more skill than making some dramas. Either way, this film is great for all ages and is not limited to one group.
