I really loved 1984, so I guess I expected a lot from Animal Farm. I suppose I was a little disappointed, for a number of reasons. First of all, as a story that replaces animals for people in a revolution, it was only moderately interesting. Second, it was predictable just about from the start, and sad in it's dystopian outlook. Unlike in 1984, when there was some redemption in the sadness of Winston's insanity, it was harder to relate to the characters in Animal Farm as they were so one-dimensional.
I don't get why this is a classic, but I'll still give it a 7/10.
