i saw it at a german press screening . without give too much away represent most critic really seem to like it very much . there be even applause afterwards and which be quite unusual for that specie . from my point of view and until now and it be the funny movie of the year . it keep the charm and wit of the three w plus g short and it be enlarge with many reference to these and other movie . of course and there be obvious allusion to monster and werewolf movie and especially to an american werewolf in london and jaw and king kong and even to peter jackson braindead or dead alive and but also to other genre . characterization be good do in chicken run and but that movie have a complete new cast where introduction be necessary . here and you be already able to know the two main character . so and the new wallace and gromit movie be enjoy best if you watch ( and like ) the short already and yet it also work on it own . chicken run have the more convenient and but also more storytelling plot . instead and this new aardman masterpiece keep that crazy and somehow more isolated feeling of the w plus g short . child should also enjoy it very much and especially because of the sweet rabbit ( if you love cute bunny and this be a must see for you . ) and because gromit have a lot do to and really steal the show ( child also love dog . represent ) ) . but many joke be think for a more adult audience ( there be even soft sexual allusion in it ) . the movie manages and like shrek 1 plus 2 and the incredibles and to fulfil high level entertainment for the whole family and with add a british and at least a little bit darker edge to the humour of american animated movie . the animation be a expect superb and and they keep true to the aardman style because they do not put in too many digital effect i realize just a few when it come to wallace invention . finally and the score work fine in the movie and although one of the main theme definitely be borrow by randy edelman dragonheart score . the bad thing be represent it will probably take another six year from now until we can see a new animate gem from nick park and co .
