Synopsis:
The whole world is looking for a hero, and it's up to a little pigeon named Valiant to step up and bravely serve his country. Valiant (Ewan McGregor) and his fine, feathered friends take to the sky on a wing and a prayer to prove that it's not your wingspan but the size of your spirit that truly counts. Together this rag-tag squadron of birdbrains engages in hilarious aerial adventures at a spitfire pace. From the first bumbling day of basic training through the final feather-raising mission, the flock of comical characters swoops their way toward victory. From the producer of SHREK and SHREK 2, VALIANT delivers stunning animation, a top-flight voice cast, and an action-packed story loaded with laughs. It's a soaring family comedy that truly earns its wings.

CRITIC REVIEWS
Lew Irwin
Valiant is a bird, critics are pointing out, and, they seem to indicate, it's certainly no prince. In fact, they're taking turns at firing potshots at Disney's latest animated feature. (The film was produced by a British company; Disney is distributing it.) It's digitally animated, not hand-drawn and voiced by such top-name British talent as Ewan McGregor, Ricky Gervais, Jim Broadbent, Tim Curry, John Cleese, Hugh Laurie and John Hurt. Roger Moore in the Orlando Sentinel concludes that it's watchable. But try explaining all of this not-particularly funny adult history, humor and clutter to a child. Likewise, Kyle Smith in the New York Post warns that the movie will fly over the heads of actual youngsters. And Carina Chocano in the Los Angeles Times suggests that the film may be trying too hard to fly high. She writes: Valiant wants to be the Saving Private Ryan of animated war movies. Instead (and the characters are just as hard to tell apart) it's their The Great Raid.
