This is a classic British war movie with something of a difference - the characters are pigeons. Valiant wants to do his bit during World War II, but he’s worried he’s too small. Still, he manages to make his way to London to sign up, and is soon conveying vital messages - but can he stay clear of the dangerous German falcons? Top animated fun with well-known stars such as Ricky Gervais and Ewan McGregor doing the voices.

I thought it was an amazing adventure about a young birds life and how he fights off a evil villian who plots to take over the bird race

A great family film, and allthough it’s aimed at younger ages, I’m sure older kids will enjoy it to. From Valient (Ewan Mcgregor) who thinks he’s on the short side, to a deranged mouse who is obsessed with sabotage.
It is a comedy animation, and that really works well with the theme.
Overall, a great watch and I highly recomend it.
Fascinating facts
The British military used 250,000 messenger pigeons during World War II – with 32 pigeons winning medals.
