This film was unique as it was from the point of view of chickens. It was about the determination and resilience animals and people can have when they set a target for themselves, which pushes them to accomplish the task they want to. Being another example of "If you don't succeed at first, try, try again", it is inspirational for children, encouraging them to be risk-taking and not to give up easily. Also, it gives children an idea of the feelings humans and animals encounter in difficult circumstances, giving them a chance to compare themselves with the chickens. Watching this film gives them the opportunity to see the similarities and differences between them and enables them to approach problems in a different way. The chickens had a positive attitude and found methods to tackle the obstacles in their lives, which will have a similar impact on the viewers.

I would recommend this film to children who enjoy comedy and apply what they learn because they will be role models to others but will love the hilarious moments.
