...could be that the creative slump punctuated by 2007’s stunningly bad “The Darjeeling Limited” is what makes Anderson’s sixth feature such a warm surprise. It could also be that “Fantastic Mr. Fox?? is a light, lovely, and clever comedy that finds the director’s vision coinciding with pure entertainment for the first time in years.

...discourse and one of the greatest problems of our generation—health care—must be engaged with seriously, these schoolyard antics on the part of both Fox and the White House neither are politically expedient nor do they move debate forward. The White House should take Fox??s deliberate deceptions seriously, but there are more intelligent ways to deal with lies than picking a fight that can’t be won at a reasonable cost.
