Pjtaylor-96-138044 One of Britain's most recognisable duos, the claymation Wallace and Gromit (who's other appearances are all cracking adventures too, I might add), bring their home-spun and wholesome humour to the big- screen in a big way with what I can honestly say is one of the funniest films I have had the pleasure of watching, one that is carefully crafted to be a charming and entertaining experience that is almost impossible to fault mainly because there is not a single moment that seems out of place - not to mention the fact that the flick keeps a huge smile on your face throughout; of course it is also beautifully animated and holds a hugely tactile aesthetic that makes each frame feel both grounded and alive, but the piece also places an emphasis on its smartly written screenplay and several nuanced sight-gags to elevate what some could consider simple 'kids- material' into something that can be enjoyed by an extremely wide audience, while its story and visuals also include a couple of nice call-backs to horror movies past which cement the picture as a very cine-literate one that knows its place and relishes it. 8/10

grantss Good entertainment.Charming animated movie, one of the many in the Wallace and Gromit series of movies and TV episodes. Sweet story, with good action and great animation. In a world where good CGI is a given, thanks to technological advances, the animation in Wallace and Gromit movies and TV episodes is brilliant and second-to-none.Good voice castings, with Helena Bonham Carter and Ralph Fiennes joining Peter Sallis (Wallace).Good fun, ideal for the whole family.

mjcfoxx There is something nostalgic about a Nick Park Wallace and Gromit piece. There's never any indication of a specific time span in the films, though there does seem to be slight indications of a narrative flow and an overall sense of travel, but nowhere do we find the sort of thing that one sees with the Simpsons (nobody in the Simpsons ages, though they do seem to move through time periods; but Bart in the early 90s was a kid and 20 years later, he's still a kid, while the family can look back and remember when he wasn't born). Wallace and Gromit can look back too, and perhaps if there was more to their story, we'd also notice they never age... however, their world is placed in a timeless place that echoes the 50s and 60s. Nobody has a computer. Wallace builds a rocket in the short 'A Grand Day Out', but either he missed Neil Armstrong proving once and for all that the moon isn't made of cheese, or that grand worldwide event has yet to happen in his world. Animation has the ability to be timeless, yet it has to relate to us in a way that makes us comfortable. Wallace and Gromit inhabit that rare place of nostalgia. Their adventures are new, but there's a quaintness to them, like sipping hot chocolate and hearing wild yet tamed down stories of the adventures your grandparents used to have. The Curse of the Were-Rabbit is exemplary for providing us just such a tale. It's cheeky in places if you're old enough to get the jokes, but never offensive. It presents modern ideas (vegetarianism, humane treatment of animals), that doesn't share much of a place with the time period it hearkens back to, but is subtle enough that many years from now, we won't feel off put by it. It's a safe, pleasant, quite-often-hilarious tale that we'll want to return to... watching this movie is basically like hugging your favorite pet dog. Of course, your dog is probably less inclined to wake you up in the morning the same way Gromit is.

Thomas Stansfield To the people who are saying 'This has no plot' chances are your just too stupid to understand a good story line. There is plot and the claymation is remarkably good. There is so much detail on the buildings and town. There are good laughs too, I bet the people who said they don't get laughter is obviously an American who doesn't get British humour, no offense to the people who do. Yes there are some sexual innuendos but they are for the adults. Many shows like 'The Animanics' and the 'Rugrats' and even 'Cat In The Hat', despite it been so terribly done, have some innuendos in them and people who grew up with the show love it now as an adult. These types of jokes are for the adults as the creators know there'll be adults taking their kids to see this movie. Kids won't even understand the joke, but if they do tell them when they're or if they consider it understanding it themselves. I enjoy the movie, I understand the British humour this movie has like the 1-hour long specials. Most people might think the villain is not as great as the ones in the shorts. They see him more as a pompous person who's after a woman's money. But isn't Gaston from 'Beauty and The Beast' like that as well? Pompous? The film had done a great tribute to other classic films like 'King Kong' and 'The Curse of the Werewolf' and that is another thing with people saying they don't like this movie, 'Why can't there be a werewolf?' That would make the movie bad, why would there be a vegetable competition and a werewolf involve? That doesn't make any sense! A Were-Rabbit is good for comedy as they do vegetables such as carrots.I'm not against everyone's opinions here, but if you don't understand what the movie is about and hate it because of a villain or the use of a 'Were-Rabbit' instead of Wolf or its British humour but without any proper explainable reason why, then I'm not going to take your opinions seriously.The movie is great and it deserves the award back in 2006 for its outstanding animation and comedic storyline. I like the shorts and this movie and I do hope one day they make another Wallace and Gromit movie.
