Animal Farm (2025)
▸ Decent one-time watch
The verdict
Animal Farm is a middling English film — fine for a one-time watch but unlikely to stay with you. It carries a 6.4/10 on TMDB across 96 ratings, which puts it around the middle of the pack. It's a tight 95-minute watch — easy to fit into a busy night. It's in theatres in the UK now — best caught on the big screen.
Premiered at the Annecy International Animation Film Festival.

Story
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.
