What critics compared Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget to
Enforcing this witty script, which is written by Karey Kirkpatrick (Chicken Run), John O’Farrell and Rachel Tunnard (Military Wives), are the returning characters that we all adored in Chicken Run: Ginger and Rocky are as lovable as always; rats Nick (Romesh Ranganathan, Cinderella) and Fetcher (Daniel Mays, 1917) play even bigger, friendlier roles; Fowler (David Bradley, Pinocchio) and Babs (Jane Horrocks, Sunshine on Leith) shine as brightly as they did in the first film, and are undoubtedly the pick of the bunch.
So the original’s co-screenwriter Karey Kirkpatrick, a veteran of The Rescuers Down Under (1990), James And The Giant Peach (1996), The Little Vampire (2000), Charlotte’s Web (2006), makes use of a number of very clever tricks to have the chickens break in to a facility that endangers chicken lives rather than break out of one.
