Hmmm! The animation style is quite engaging here, but otherwise it’s quite a repetitive story that seems intent more on doing a hatchet job on the judicial system than telling us a story about poor old “Cock Robin”. Anyway, he is serenading the rather buxom “Jenny Wren” when someone mercifully takes a bow and arrow to him. This causes uproar amidst the feathered community and a rather militaristic investigation, under the auspices of owl, is ordered. Interrogations ensue, but will they ever reveal the truth? There are quite a few light-hearted racial stereotypes included here, the songs are all a bit basic and though it’s quite a well paced ten minutes, it’s also a fairly unremarkable film.
