"This first feature by Nick Park and Peter Lord, the team that brought you Wallace and Gromit, is a diabolically witty piece of work, a haymaker." -David Edelstein, Slate

"The level of invention on display, from the vividly detailed models and figurines to the gallery of memorable supporting characters, is astonishing." -Scott Tobias, AV Club

Claymation awesomeness from Aardman Animations: A comedy drama set on a Yorkshire chicken farm in 1950s England, the story follows the turbulent romance between Rocky the Rooster and Ginger the chicken, both of whom yearn for freedom and are planning a daring "prisoner of war" style escape. Both chickens are tired of being repressed and know they face an eventual certain death, so in planning their escape, they rally with their fellow chickens.
