BEST MOVIES OF 2009: #8 - FANTASTIC MR. FOX


2009 was the year of the Clooney. The star of the #10 film is also the star of the #8 film Fantastic Mr. Fox. Director Wes Anderson has made a career of making small films about underachieving, upper-class outcasts. To say this is a departure from those films would be an understatement. This is Wes' first animated feature and the cast of characters are all animals. Yet it stills feel like a Wes Anderson film. There's the strange family dynamic that is present in all of Wes' movies, but most importantly it's got that quirky sense of humor that no one can pull off but Wes.
