Animal Farm (1999 TV Movie)
7/10
Good message...but Weird
17 January 2012
This movie does have a good message, but I found extremely weird. There is good representations in this movie about society and how a society becomes elitist and tyrannical. I also liked how it showed political stuff people talk about today; like the pigs using the TV to distract the other animals like people talk about how politicians use the media to control who gets the vote. It also had a healthy dose of satire, and a little bit of slapstick to lighten some of the dramatic moments.

On the personal level though....Bolshevik farm animals? Gestapo dogs? Dictator pig? How bizarre! It found it very weird to just see such on screen like its one of those kiddy talking animal movies. So I finish watching this movie and all I can think is "that was a weird movie!" Back to the message, more should watch this, definitely.
