Amazon.co.uk Review

He's a ginger-haired kid in a parka, but don't underestimate this little hellraiser; Angry Kid is the product of Aardman Animations but couldn't be further from the amiable antics of Wallace & Gromit. If he's not stuffing himself with chocolate and fizzy drinks until he's sick, Angry Kid is ramming a cotton bud up his nose or relentlessly picking on his little sister.

Originally played on the Internet and digital television, these (roughly) one-minute sketches are sarcastic, irreverent and definitely not aimed at kids. In "Bone" Angry Kid falls off his bike and has to fend off a ravenous dog who's after the bone newly jutting out from his broken elbow, while in "Hoax Call" he torments a directory enquiries man into shooting himself. Animated using a process called pixilation, director Darren Walsh created Angry Kid using a real actor as a base for a series of masks, creating movements frame by frame. His expressions are hilarious, but what's most appealing about this repugnant little brat is his embodiment of teen angst. Alongside the gross-out humour come some classic observations on teenage quirks, like Angry Kid facetiously enquiring which swear words he's allowed to use. Remember doing that?

On the DVD: Angry Kid's animated menus show him abusing the viewer and lead to a generous amount of extras. The making-of documentary "Inside Angry Kid" goes some way into the process of pixilation and the creation of the masks, together with interviews with the animators. A montage and teaser trailer for the next series highlight some of the best moments, as does the image gallery. Copies of Angry Kid's school and police reports highlight some of his worst moments, but the funniest touches are a director's cut of one episode and three bizarrely hilarious foreign language (read: Angry Kid impersonating Chinese, French and Spanish) films. --Laura Bushell

4.0 out of 5 stars great but short, 16 Nov 2004
By Mr. D. W. Bond "weeman5foot" (Dartford, Kent, Eng) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Angry kid! funny name, funny guy. This DVD has all of the episodes of season 1, all 25. Thats right, the funniest little ginger kid with a slightly foul mouth of a 12 year old that dosnt know what the word he is saying means. Angry kid offers 25 little clips of what he has been getting up to in his recent months,These clips last approximatly 1:20sec each, which is why it didnt get 5 stars, overall this title lasts around 30mins, but there are extras showing you how they make the animations and what have you. There also includes 3 different languages...no no, in a hilarious way, it show one on the angry kid episodes in spanish, french and japanese, it is basically taking the mick. lets just say the whole thing is very very funny. is you have never heard or seen angry kid then check out www.atomfilms.com there is usually and advertisement but if not, just have a look at the comedy section. if you have a sense of humour then you will love it, now bring on season 2.

4.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic!, 22 Aug 2003
By A Customer
My brother bought this DVD and I had never heard of Angry Kid before that. He made me watch it and I have been hooked ever since! I have now started looking out for the new series on BBC3. The only thing I would say is that you'll either love it or hate it, there's no in-between as it really does depend on your sense of humour and if you have one you'll find this hysterical! Some of the funniest sketches are those with little dialogue, like Headlights, backward writing and road hog. If your really not sure if this is your kind of humour then you can always preview them on atom films which is now part of the macromedia shockwave site. They have all 25 episodes there.

5.0 out of 5 stars My husband loves it!!, 9 May 2004
By A Customer
I bought the Angry Kid DVD for my husband, who is an avid fan. He absolutely loves it. Even my kids like to watch it. The kids love the episode about "Blood Juice". We can't wait for the next Angry Kid DVD to come out!
