Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit (2005)

What makes it different from others?

How wonderful it is to see this fine actress carry a film and carry it so beautifully.

Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

(excuse my English, it is not my native language)I haven't watched this movie in over 10 years. And after all this time of not seeing anything about it, and neither my parents or my sister remembering it, I thought it might have been a weird fragment of my imagination, some weird fantasy thing kids come up with. I don't know if I should be happy this is real, or terrified. Happy because I'm not insane, terrified because other kids might have seen it too.As a kid I watched this movie once or twice, but it gave me nightmares, and sometimes still have nightmares about it, I don't know if its the weird idea of a guy turning into a were-rabbit, or my fear of the machines Wallace build (how they could kill you in a single malfunction), or the fact that stop motion animation was just not my thing as a kid.The only reason why I'm giving it two stars is because I can't remember it that well, but I sometimes my thoughts wander back to this movie, and it still scares me.

The Curse of the Were-Rabbit is one of those rare animated films that can be enjoyed and laughed at even by adults. And it's not due to „adult" humour but by simply being smart and clever. It's as much a comedy as an animated film.My favourite part was the kid horror, for lack of a better term. The sort of Halloween-ized „scary moments" always make me nostalgic for my childhood and this film uses them to good effect. And the clay animation is just adorable. The rabbits particularly are some of the cutest I've ever seen.In many ways this is a film that only the British could make. It creates a quaint little country village where our two main heroes work as pest control. Not being familiar with the original Wallace and Gromit shorts I don't know how accurate the adaptations here are, but nevertheless they are very likable.But what I liked best is that the film didn't try to be too big. Usually films of this type try to add unnecessary character drama or backstories. This plot is not longer than it needs to be, but just right. Overall it is a simple story but there is nothing to complain about in this film.

It's incredible what these guys are able to do with claymation. It is a fantastic- looking film. The claymation is beautiful.But more than that, it is very, very funny. It is more than a usual comedy. It has great jokes as well as visual comedy. The comedy is perfect for all ages. You can watch it when you're young, and then watch it years later and realize all of the jokes you missed.And finally, is a very well-acted, and well-written film. The voice-acting is great, the writing of the jokes as well as the plot is absolutely wonderful. The story, concept, and humor are nearly perfect.It is a great film and one of the best animated pictures ever.

Wallace and his loyal dog, Gromit, set out to discover the mystery behind the garden sabotage that plagues their village and threatens the annual giant vegetable growing contest.This is a film that is both good and bad. Fans of Wallace, Gromit and Nick Park will probably enjoy it. The time and effort that goes into this kind of animation is unbelievable. Is it harder than hand-drawing? Maybe, maybe not... but everything has to be just right, which makes it seem like more of a process than the computer animation of today (2015).But the story is not that great, or at least not as memorable. Today, "Wrong Trousers" and "Chicken Run" are something of modern classics, but "Were Rabbit" has been more or less forgotten. A huge splash in 2005-2006, perhaps, but only decreasing in popularity since. Unfortunate, really, given the great voice talent (Helena Bonham Carter, Ralph Fiennes) involved.
