Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit

It was nice to see a full Wallace & Gromit film on the big screen. Just another one of those stories of a man and his dog that didn't always have us laughing or but still interested at the very least. They were originally just in cartoon shorts. What's the story? Well in this story "Wallace" who's an inventor and always gets into trouble and his dog "Gromit" always has to save him. and in this story they're rabbit exterminators, well not really they really exterminate the rabbits, they just take them of the person's property and give them a home a their house. But things really get out of hand when one of Wallace's inventions goes wrong, what a shock, when it creates a Were-Rabbit. A creature that goes into everyone's house a eats their crops and vegetables. So now Wallace and Gromit are on the  case trying to stop it but Gromit finds there's a bit more of a twist on this then he thought. Well if you've seen the original shorts like "A Grand Day Out" or "The Wrong Trousers" or even "A Close Shave" you know your favourite characters are back and they haven't changed a bit. Wallace is still this weird guy who does have so selfish moments but still does know when to put his friends a head of himself at times. Gromit is just a dog who can do human stuff like walk, read, drink from cups and eat food normally and yet he never ever talks... once. But to be fair that's actually one of the things I do like about him. With not having him talk and trying to understand what he's thinking through his face expressions it's really good and likable. He actually is really smart and is my favourite character.  The stop-motion is once again brilliant to watch, I mean it just the way the creators built these sets makes them look really big. So for what it is it's o.k. If you want to see t yourself that's fine but if you haven't seen the short yet I start with those first.
