[.ca] Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit (Full ...

From Amazon.com:
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

A great new addition to the classic collection:
Wallace and Gromit have remained a favourite with the short films, and this is the first full length feature. All I can say is, wow. I could not stop laughing throughout the movie, and there are never any parts you want to skip over. The Curse of the Were Rabbit keeps you rolling in your seat with it's humour, spoofs, and the ever classic characters of Wallace and his lovable pooch Gromit. The story is about (of course) Wallace and Gromit, and this time they've started Pesto, a Anti Pest control team. They live in a quaint town, with an annual vegetable competition held by the Lady Tottington. Pesto protects the town from the population of rabbits in the area. Their newest customer becomes none other than Lady Tottington (Tottie), and her hilarious "boyfriend". Of course, as the story goes on, the Wererabbit eventually steps into play, and must be taken care of before the vegetable competition is cancelled or ruined! You have to keep your eyes open for detail throughout the movie, because it is filled with little jokes and background things, which make you laugh all the harder. It's a great movie for all ages, and one that I think will be difficult to get sick of watching.

terrific in every way:
this movie was a delight from start to finish.if you're not familiar with Wallace and Gromit,Wallace is a cheese loving inventor,and Gromit is his faithful canine companion.as the title suggests the duo get heavily involved in a mystery involving a strange creature known as the Were-Rabbit,and hijinks ensue.the entire movie is filmed using characters molded from plasticine,and using stop motion animation.a lot of painstaking work went into the process,and it shows.the detail is amazing.and beyond that,the movie is funny and suitable for all ages.i loved this movie and will definitely be watching it again.for a fun time for the whole family,i recommend this movie heartily.for me,Wallace and Gromit in The Curse of the Were-Rabbit is a perfect 5/5

What a fun movie:
I had never heard of W & G before and then my 5 year old pointed it out in a video store saying his class saw it at school. I watched it at home with him and loved it. Loved the English-ness of it and Gromit best of all.
