MartinTeller | 85 84th |
After three brilliant W&G shorts, we finally get a feature-length film. Like Chicken Run, it occasionally feels stretched out, but for the most part it's wall-to-wall entertainment. Certainly enjoyable for the kids (at least, the children at the theater seemed to have a good time), also loaded with enough literary references, clever sight gags and double entendre to keep the adults in the crowd in stitches. Very, very charming.

Grit | 87 93rd |
Carefully crafted and very intelligently designed animation. The attention to detail for such a film is incredible and is continually packed with little enjoyable idiosyncrasies, local references and interesting background jokes. After a 10 year absence W&G are back, and on top form.

I can't imagine anyone nót liking this charming, awesome-looking, funny piece of clay magic. And weren't those little bunnies adorabl-- gah, I need to watch some slasher movies to compensate, this was just too damn cute!

Rewatch. I could watch charming claymation characters all day. This is a nice Halloween movie for kids. Fav scene: Gromit flying the plane in impossible stunts.

Nick Park is amazing. This captures all the joy and charm of the shorts, and manages to convincingly stretch it into feature-length material with a funny, creative story.

Goofy, charming and visually delightful, Were-Rabbit pleases kids with its unstoppable velocity and adults with lots of eccentric -- british, I mean -- gags. A great one.

This is probably the dumbest criticism I could ever level against this film, and if I was a professional film critic my reputation would in shambles, but... this movie spreads harmful stereotypes about rabbits. They are not pests or vermin, they are affectionate members (*starts sniffling*) of the family who deserve love, warmth & t-t-tenderness (*full on sobbing*) ...It was a really bad idea to watch this film so close to the anniversary of my bunny's death.

Very funny, entertaining film. Top-notch "claymation" in a time dominated by CGI.

This movie is filled with incedible imagery and hilarious gags. The voice-acting is superb, and it's a fantastic movie for kids and adults alike.

Freder | 75 63rd |
Not as good as the short films that led up to it (has some of the bounce gone out of Aardman's bungee?); but that may have been inevitable. It's still a lot of fun, very funny and well worth the wait.

Quaint and delightful, Nick Parker's film covers things as British as vegetable contests and Werewolfs. A joy.

Wallace and Gromit reminds me a lot of Wodehouse, and in particular the Blandings stories. They exist in a world of whimsy and cheer that is the perfect antidote to the countless "dark" and "gritty" movies that are churned out. Filled with sly references, careful craftsmanship, and one of the great duos in animated history, Curse of the Were-Rabbit is damn refreshing.

Aardman could easily have stuffed up with this one. But they actually did a fantastic job of this movie. It's equally as good as the Wallace and Gromit short films, and it has the cleverness and creativeness that Nick Park always brings to them. This movie was deserving of the Best Animated Feature Oscar it won, and I want to see more of Wallace and Gromit like this!

I remember having quite a bit of fun with this! Anything Wallace and Grommit related is usually pretty harmless and safe, perfect for the whole family. And very funny.
