Wallace and Gromit – Quirky British Charm at Its Best
Wallace and Gromit never get old! The claymation style is charming, the humor is clever, and the characters are lovable in the most endearing way. It’s smart, funny, and delightfully weird—in the best possible way. Great for kids and adults who appreciate good storytelling and a little old-school whimsy. Highly recommend!

Always a fun watch
This movie never fails to make me smile and even laugh out loud! One of my son and my favorite "fun" movies. Just hilarious. Understated comedy, great voice talent, cute and quirky plot, and with Aardman's signature stop-motion-esque animation style. Very entertaining. Recommend!

A classic!
This was my introduction to Wallace and Gromit, two very charming characters. Wallace, a cheese-obsessed British chap, and Gromit, his silent but very expressive sidekick dog (who can make tea, drive, etc.) have a humane pest control business named "Anti-pesto." Yes the puns run rampant throughout this film, from the jar of "Middle Age Spread" on the kitchen table, to the classic novels with altered cheese-themed titles ("Waiting for Gouda," "Grated Expectations," etc.)among many others. The film is rich with texture and humor. The sets are delightful, from the charming British neighborhoods to the manor house of Lady Tottington. The plot is about an experiment of Wallace's that goes awry leading to the creation of a giant, vegetable devouring rabbit that comes out at night with the full moon and devours the gardens of the townfolk, including the prized oversize vegetables they're nurturing for a vegetable competition at Tottington's estate. Tottington summons Anti-pesto to contain the beast, much to the chagrin of her bunny-blood-thirsty hunter fiance, Victor Quartermaine, who would love to "bag her bunny" and be the local hero with a furry trophy. The film is beautiful to watch and full of visual humor and clever dialogue and gags of all sorts. Pay attention to Lady Tottington's outfits suggestive of certain vegetables and some mild humor in the style of Benny Hill. Be sure to read anything in print--the tongue-in-cheek humor is planted throughout the film. The music score is wonderful and the filming style is very effective. Be sure to watch the behind the scenes video to gain an appreciation of how painstakingly and lovingly the film was put together by its creators. My husband and 3 year old daughters love this movie. There's humor for everyone, any gender, any age. We watch it all the time. Enjoy!

One of the all time greats
This movie is just awesome. Detail is incredible. I was honestly too distracted by how good the sets looked. The craftsmanship makes me go crazy, and I suspect they might've used some black magic

Perfect
I loved this movie as a kid and it is amazing to have a physical copy now. Unfortunately sometimes services take it offline and I didn't want to try and pirate it. Thankfully I was able to find a DVD for myself!!

Absolute Fun for Ages 5 to 90!
Wallace and Gromit are an endearing pair. This movie continues the antics and adventures of Wallace, an English tinkerer and inventor and his canine sidekick, Gromit, a dog who never says a word but floods the screen with emotions and commentaries with his facial expressions.In this movie, they create a company dedicated to the humane removal and disposal (by letting them go in the country) of rabbits and other vermin.They scramble to rid the town of a rabbit invasion which is destroying everyone's prize vegetable gardens. It is a movie that will tug at the heartstrings and evoke laughter in children and adults alike.If you like this movie, be sure to see their original Claymation trilogy: "The Wrong Trousers", "A Grand Night Out" and "A Close Shave". Nick Park, the creator of the pair, won awards for the countless hours invested in making this rag-tag duo a favorite.
