Nothing works in this film, the acting is bad, the sets are bad, the songs are bad. Kevin Corcoran is wasted as the near mute Boy Blue. Tommy Kirk is equally squandered as the assistant Grumio. Annette is stiff and nervous, and really never did sing well...sorry Annette. The rest of the cast just slogs through this whole mess...what were they thinking?

Originally Posted By DVC_dad I'll be the first to name a recent film. I hate to admit it.... but I thought Chicken Little flat out STANK! The story isn't that bad, you know the plot. The CGI is pretty good. But the appearance of the characters and the end of the moive didn't live up to the hype in my 2 cents worth world.
Originally Posted By Jim in Merced CA How about 'The Barefoot Executive' -- starring Kurt Russell? Or 'No You See Him, Now You Don't' and 'The Strongest Man in the World' -- both with Kurt Russell as college guy Dexter Riley. Or 'The Boatniks' -- terrible! Or 'One of our Dinosaurs in Missing' Lotsa live action stinkers in the Disney archives!

Originally Posted By brotherdave I forgot about "One of Our Dinosaurs is Missing" I bought it for a $1.00 on clearance at Media Play. They should have burned it to help clear the stench!!! Too bad, some good talent (Helen Hayes, Peter Ustinov) that is totally, totally wasted... Another stinker I thought of.. Unidentified Flying Oddball P.U.!!!!
