A rollicking, irreverent, silly joy ride that also happens to house a very adult story about growing old, "Fantastic Mr. Fox" was pretty easily the best animated film of last year, Academy Awards notwithstanding. "Fox," based on the Roald Dahl children's book, is the story of Mr. Fox (voiced by George Clooney), a middle-aged varmint feeling the call of the wild as he approaches middle age. He's got a wife (Meryl Streep), a son (Jason Schwartzman) and a small hole in the ground he lives in.
