The trick is in the tone, which is amused but not derisive, and in the understanding that a film about chickens needs to be a film about people first of all. Jul 6, 2017 | Rating: 3.5/5 | Full Review…

Chicken pride and genetic engineering are at the heart of this winsome, semi-serious non-mocking documentary about the exacting preparations a very diverse group of chicken-loving yokels undertake for the 2015 Ohio National Poultry Show. Aug 11, 2017 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…
