Buck Cluck

Buck "Ace" Cluck is a major character from the 2005 animated film Chicken Little. He is Chicken Little's father and Chloe Cluck's husband.

Why He Sucks

 * 1) He is awful, cruel, neglectful and mean-spirited.
 * 2) He is a shallow, petty, blithering, idiotic, and cruel jerk.
 * 3) The film tries to paint him as if he fails to understand his son. But the problem is that he never even makes an attempt to understand his son, and just seems to be more focused with his public image.
 * 4) He is a nervous wreck, and will easily break down and resort to the worst decision when under pressure, especially if it involves his son.
 * 5) Like Professor Membrane, he is an incompetent parent, failing to give decent care to his son, coming off like he wants nothing to do with him whilst being embarrassed by his son's existence and distancing himself from him.
 * 6) * Much like Big Tex, he uses his own son to lie to the townspeople just so that he can be his cash cow.
 * 7) When the entire town was bullying Chicken Little for thinking that the sky was falling down, he practically didn't do anything to support him, let alone defend him.
 * 8) The only times where he seems to want anything to do with his son is when it benefits him. Like when Chicken Little won a baseball game, Buck is happy because that means everyone will forget about the sky was falling incident. Coming off as not acknowledging his son until he wins his first baseball game.
 * 9) The stuff that he says to Chicken Little is not only bad, but it could even scar most kids.
 * 10) He's not the villain of the movie, which made him even more unlikable because his portrayal is fitting enough to be an antagonist instead of the parent of a protagonist.
 * 11) He is a major hypocrite: He claims that the antagonists were bad parents for "leaving behind" Kirby, when he himself neglected and ostracized his own son.
 * 12) He is so bad that he now the most hated character next to Scrappy doo.
 * 13) He is way too similar to Professor Membrane as they don't believe their own sons (Dib and Chicken Little).

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) At least he apologizes to Chicken Little at the end of the film, and he admits his parenting was bad.
 * 2) He became better at the near end of the movie.
 * 3) He is a pretty good fighter and a relatively sporty person.
 * 4) He can be a good father at times, but rarely.
 * 5) He’s not entirely at fault for the citizens for not believing Chicken Little. The others didn’t see the spaceship at first, so yeah.
 * 6) He really does care about his son.
 * 7) He was happy when Chicken Little won the game.
