Wallace and Gromit
I was going to be all critical and cutting, and say how much more critical and cutting the film could have been, and how they’d not been quite a strong satirically as they could have been… but I relented when I realised I was perfectly happy with it how it was. Sure, some of the jokes were a bit beneath me (kids would love it) but as a whole it was a really good film – charming without being sickly.
Er, that’s it. To be honest, there’s not much more to say that hasn’t been said already. The incredibly critical reviewer of the Independent (who hasn’t liked any film I’ve seen and enjoyed in the past two years) gave it five out of five stars. Then again, he’s possibly becoming less critical – Sky High got three (“good”).
Anyway, I enjoyed it a lot. However not quite enough to make me want to see it again quite yet. I’ll give it four stars for now, and when the DVD comes out that may well go up.
