Took my daughter to see this one. Unlike most kid movies today, that must layer on adult themes to get parents to see them, this was a lot more light weight.
I really enjoyed seeing the silly situations, supported by relatively simple, but perfectly executed plot; and the very cute claymation of Wallace and Gromit. It's remarkable how much expression they can get into a clay figurine's face and eyes. Very appealing characters all around.
Park is to be commended for his work, and I hope more people will go see the talent on display here.
There's no heavy-handed posturing, except the idea that there are peaceful/non-violent ways of getting rid of pests.
All three of us giggled and laughed our way through this charming film.
