Frightening/Intense Scenes: 'Storks' is an animated film which revolves around a flock of storks which has stopped delivering babies and instead, deliver packages for a corporation. When one of the storks and a girl accidentally turn on a baby making-machine which produces a baby, they have to find a way to deliver the baby to its parents.

 The themes in the film generally have a low sense of threat or menace, and are justifiable by context, hence making them suitable for children below 13 years. Special attention should be paid to their impact on younger viewers.

The film contains some scenes of peril.

These include scenes where a plane loses control and crashes on ice; a scene where a pack of wolves chase the protagonists in order to snatch a baby; a scene where the female protagonist falls into water and is surrounded by wolves; as well as another scene where the antagonist is seen stuck in a machine which topples from a great height, dragging two characters along.

These scenes would thus be more appropriate with parental supervision.



Story: Storks deliver babies...or at least they used to. Now they deliver packages for global internet giant Cornerstore.com. Junior, the company's top delivery stork, is about to be promoted when he accidentally activates the Baby Making Machine, producing an adorable and wholly unauthorized baby girl. Desperate to deliver this bundle of trouble before the boss gets wise, Junior and his friend Tulip, the only human on Stork Mountain, race to make their first-ever baby drop - in a wild and revealing journey that could make more than one family whole and restore the storks' true mission in the world.

Likes : This is a great animated family film from warner bros , with the concept of family & the old
age myth that baby came from storks delivering the baby to the parents door. The animation in the film is brilliant done which is very similar to disney pixar animated film's.

What great about this film is it an all round family entertainment that fun for the kids as well as the adult humour as well with certain scene , through most of the film it a little slow to start with but as we get to see character development this film because very funny.

The humour is very slap stick in places with the typical humour like out of Road runner which seem to work for this film. Most of the humour comes from the wolf pack Voice by  Keegan-Michael Key  Jordan Peele. 

The animation with these guy is brilliant special when they working as a team to form certain things which really does make you laugh when you see this on screen , give the wolf pack this comical humour that both adults & kids will love.

Andy Sambery brilliant voice acting for the stork 
Junior bring a hard working employing trying to do the right thing but ends up mess up everything when he asked to fire Tulip (voice by) Katie Crown this is just where the film take on the journey with hilarious consequences trying to get this baby to it destination.

It a very well directed & cute animated film that you will love to watch with great timing on the jokes & humour that will have you laughing throughout this film , although this might not appeal to everyone this is a worth while film to watch.
