This animated adventure is the re-imagined classic family tale based on the book by Roald Dahl. Mr. and Mrs. Fox (Clooney and Streep) live a happy home life with their eccentric son Ash (Schwartzman) and visiting nephew Kristofferson (Anderson). That is until Mr. Fox slips into his sneaky old ways and plots the greatest heist the animal world has ever seen. When mean old farmers Boggis (Hurlstone), Bunce (Guinness) and Bean (Gambon) join forces to surround Mr. Fox and his family, they don't realize they are not dealing with any old fox—it's "Fantastic Mr. Fox" and he has a fantastic master plan to save the day! (Gary Reber)
