|Film takes jabs at many [[liberal values]], [[illegal immigration]], union workers, multiculturalism, (one scene where Bill tells his ex-wife that the ice cream shop him and his family used to go to is now a Mexican store) and foreign aid (in one scene Bill asks an illegal Korean immigrate a rhetorical question on how much America has given his country and yells at him after he refuses to learn the language).<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z4tC4qfv92Q</ref> It's also one of the very few films to be truthful in the "Nazis were right wingers" myth perpetrated by liberals, in which Bill informs a Neo-Nazi that he's an American and the Nazi is a sick a-hole. As well as many shots where the America flag is trashed upon (which could symbolize how liberalism has trashed everything America has stood for).<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=piPzExBdfIg</ref> But at the same time it also takes jabs at capitalism, where Bill believes he's no longer commercially valuable. And although the plot is about man trying to reach his daughter's birthday party, the film seems to toy with its audience in suggesting whether he's mentally ill or not, as opposed to a pro-family message.

|Based on the 1970 children's book of the same name by Roald Dahl, Wes Anderson's first animated film stars Mr. Fox - an anthropomorphic red fox who used to steal farm birds for a living - growing bored of the domestic life. He decides to get back into stealing birds with the help of a meek opossum named Kylie, but his attempt at one final heist brings three farmers - Boggis, Bunce, and Bean - to target Mr. Fox and his family, and he has to enlist the help of his friends and family to fight back against them. On one hand, the farmers appear to be capitalists since the store that the animals take food from belongs to the three of them (Roald Dahl had refused to put this in the book when he was alive, saying that it would be too easy of a solution for the animals, as well as concerned that it would teach kids to steal). Mr. Fox's son Ash is also said to be "different", possibly referencing being homosexual or transgender, with Beaver's son even mentioning that Ash dresses like a girl. On the other hand, while Wes Anderson's style of dysfunctional family shows up here, Mr. Fox ultimately loves his family and would do anything for them, even willing to sacrifice himself to save his nephew when he's captured by the farmers; he also fights his former partner-in-crime Rat to the death when the latter threatens his son and acts lecherous to his wife. Mr. Fox also deals with the consequences of his thieving ways and vows to make it up to everyone, showing that in spite of his arrogance, he wants to do right by those he's loyal to and admits that he had been in the wrong.
