Animal Farm
A group of farm animals rise up against their neglectful owner, dreaming of equality and freedom. But as the pigs take control, the revolution turns into tyranny, with truth rewritten and dissent crushed.
Critics Sentiment
Animals drive out humans and establish Animal Farm
Napoleon drowns and animals look hopefully toward the future
The film crashes from its strongest moment during the animal rebellion to its weakest with the happy ending, dropping 4.3 points as reviewers felt it completely abandoned Orwell's dark themes
Animal Farm starts with modest promise during the rebellion sequence but steadily deteriorates as reviewers felt it fundamentally misunderstood Orwell's political allegory. The film's attempt to transform a communist critique into a capitalism parable, combined with inappropriate humor and a happy ending, left critics feeling the adaptation had completely betrayed its source material.
