There's no sense of comic timing, and when you contrast it against something like
The Big Bad Fox
on the same list, involving the same animals, and also having Bad in the title but having a so much more disciplined mastery of comic timing it just comes off as really lame.
Oof. Fox's humor didn't register with me at all. The jokes were mind-numbingly tame, and "surprises" like the mama-hens kicking the fox's ass felt cliched. Then you had the "cowardly fox gets intimidated by the nasty wolf" routine, which got old the moment it started.
The only remotely amusing part was some of the banter between the baby chicks and the fox.
