Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

Clay-animation master Nick Park deservedly won the 1993 Academy Award for Best Animated Short for this 30-minute masterpiece, in which the good-natured inventor Wallace and his trusty dog, Gromit, return for another grand adventure. It all begins on the morning of Gromit's birthday, when Wallace gives his beloved pooch the gift of his latest invention--a pair of mechanical "techno-trousers" that can be programmed to take Gromit out for walkies while Wallace sits comfortably at home. Gromit's not exactly thrilled with the new gadget, and things go from bad to worse when Wallace rents a room to a new boarder--a rather suspicious-looking penguin--to offset his rising expenses. As it turns out, the penguin's a notorious thief and the amazing techno-trousers provide a foolproof method of pulling off a diamond heist! It's Gromit's big opportunity for canine heroics, and The Wrong Trousers turns into one of the funniest, most inventive caper-comedies ever made, with an action-packed climax on a speeding miniature train. Will the notorious "Feathers" wind up in jail where he belongs? Will Gromit finally get his due recognition? Watch this amazing marvel of clay animation to see why Wallace & Gromit have become global celebrities--this is comedic ingenuity at its finest. --Jeff Shannon

Synopsis

5.0 out of 5 stars Gromit does it again!, 31 Mar 2005
By Kona (Emerald City) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)      
This hysterically funny film features Wallace, a bumbling inventor, and his wise dog, Gromit. It's Gromit's birthday, and to his horror, Wallace gives him not only a collar and leash (!) but a mechanical, walking pair of trousers to take him out on "walkies." To make matters worse, a mysterious penguin has moved in, taken over Gromit's room, and, it seems, his spot in Wallace's heart. Gromit leaves home and discovers the penguin is the wanted criminal "Feathers," who plans to use the mechanical pants to steal a priceless diamond.

The story is very clever, and the wonderful claymation completely enchanted me. It's very droll and sly, often poignant, and really, really funny. Clever Gromit, absent-minded Wallace, and the sinister penguin are comic characters you can enjoy over and over.

This Academy Award-winning 30-minute film can be enjoyed by all ages, and I think adults may laugh even louder than the children.

5.0 out of 5 stars brilliant!, 30 April 2001
By A Customer
This film is a brilliant and wonderfully funny piece of animation and is smoother than the first wallace and gromit film. Its a laugh a second and gromit's expressions make the film!

5.0 out of 5 stars Gorgeous, Perfectly Judged, 24 April 2001
By mike@tecc.co.uk (London, England) - See all my reviews
Maybe all I need to say about this is that I love it, and so does my son who has just turned three. It's a miracle of construction that it works so well on so many levels, and can appeal to 3-year-olds and 34-years-olds equally strongly. Laugh out loud over and over.

4.0 out of 5 stars A funny film
A very funny film. It makes me laugh a lot. Good animation. Good clean film with no swearing or rudeness. The bad guy is REALLY bad. One of the good choice for family.
