follow on from the huge success of nick park and the aardman team with the wallace and gromit short animation we now have the first ( hopefully of many ) feature with the plasticine character that so many love . the dvd of the movie have prove to be the most durable and best use of my two child many christmas present by a long way . the plot of the movie be straightforward enough but the beauty of the w and g film for me be the background gag . there be plenty of up front gag and slapstick for kid and adult to enjoy but the background be the killer for me . all in a classy addition to an already classy filmography for nick park etal and i would recommend fan and new watcher to see this film . often .
