The dogs are wonderful. The animation keeps their fur blowing while giving them soulful eyes that convey the emotions a dog/human might have. The dialog is typical of Anderson with pointed irony. I wonder where did the idea for such a story comes from?
I probably recognized half the voice actors in the massive ensemble that contributed to this project. I presume being in a Wes Anderson film carries nearly the same weight as Woody's projects because of large number of actors involved.
I don't remember much about 'The Fantastic Mr. Fox' but I think this "boy-dog" story has more of an audience appeal, if you are a Wes Wnderson fan.
