Amazon.co.uk Review

A decade after their last hilarious short, the Oscar-winning A Close Shave, Claymation wonders Wallace and Gromit return for a full-length adventure. Daffy scientist Wallace (voiced by Peter Sallis) and his heroic dog Gromit are doing well with their business, Anti-Pesto, a varmint-hunting outfit designed to keep their English town safe from rabbits chomping on prized vegetables. Wallace meets Lady Tottington (Helena Bonham Carter), who appreciates Wallace's humane way of dealing with rabbits (courtesy of the Bun-Vac 6000), and sets up a rivalry with the gun-toting Victor Quartermaine (Ralph Fiennes, enjoying himself more than ever). Creator Nick Park, with co-director/writer Steve Box, delivers a story worthy of the 85-minute running time, although it stretches the act a bit; the formula plays better shorter, but the literally hand-crafted film is a joy to watch. Taking a chapter from classic horror films, a giant were-rabbit is soon on the prowl, and the town is up in arms, what with the annual vegetable contest close at hand. (Anyone who's seen the previous three shorts knows who saves the day.) Never content to do something simply when the extravagant will do, W&G's lives are filled with whimsical Rude Goldberg-style devices, and the opening number showcasing their alarm system is pure Aardman Animation at its finest. Even though there's a new twist here--a few mild sight gags aimed at adults--this G-rated film will delight young and old alike as Park, like team Pixar, seems incapable of making anything but an outstanding film. --Doug Thomas, Amazon.com


DVD Description

Wallace and his loyal dog, Gromit, set out to discover the mystery behind the garden sabotage that plagues their village and threatens the annual giant vegetable growing contest.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant!, 4 Nov 2005
This has to be the best and funniest film i have seen! The characters alone make you laugh because they look so funny and cute. The storyline is fantastic with some brilliant and clever twists. It's got edge of your seat action, side splitting comedy and even some touching moments! It also has some subtle jokes for us adults to make us giggle.

It has to be the best film of the year, as a big wallace and gromit fan im delighted there's been a film finally, big well done to the creators! Its a must-have, my kids have seen it nearly everyday at the cinema they cant get enough off it so this'll be the perfect present for yours, and even yourself because i'll certainly be watching this dvd over and over!

5.0 out of 5 stars Beware of the Were-Rabbit!!, 5 Nov 2005
By J. Wilkin (Stansted, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is the best Wallace and Grommit adventure yet. Thrilling until the very end, its not predictable in wany way. One word of advice - watch till the very end of the credits to make the most of all the laughs!

5.0 out of 5 stars Awfully Brit..., 5 Oct 2006
By Charles Wolf "Lupaster" (Italia) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
This movie is sooooo awfully brit, that you can't help loving it!
I don't know much about the techincs behind an anime like that but what I know and I can tell you is that this is real fun.
No matter how old you are, you are going to appreciate the flowing story, the ridiculously brit humor in it and the semplicity of the whole thing.
Maybe it is not going to make history, but it will make your day!
