The animal farm

The film acts as an allegorical, family-friendly cautionary tale. It follows the animals of a neglected farm as they rise up to take over the land in the name of equality. However, the pigs soon seize control and the revolution twists into tyranny, where truth is rewritten and dissent is crushed. The movie utilizes cute, computer-animated cartoon-styled characters to create a contrast with the darker, increasingly disturbing political reality of the story.
