 Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit (Special Edition, 2 DVDs)
 Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit (Special Edition, 2 DVDs) ... their last hilarious short, the Oscar-winning A Close Shave, Claymation wonders Wallace and Gromit return for a full-length adventure. Daffy scientist Wallace (voiced by Peter Sallis) and his heroic dog Gromit are doing well with their business, Anti-Pesto, a varmint-hunting outfit designed to keep their English town safe from rabbits chomping on prized vegetables. Wallace meets Lady Tottington (Helena Bonham Carter), who appreciates Wallace's humane way of dealing with rabbits (courtesy of the Bun-Vac 6000), and sets up a rivalry with the gun-toting Victor Quartermaine (Ralph Fiennes, enjoying himself more than ever). Creator Nick Park, with co-director/writer Steve Box, delivers a story worthy of the 85-minute running time, although it stretches the act a bit; the formula plays better shorter, but the literally hand-crafted film is a joy to watch. Taking a chapter from classic horror films, a giant were-rabbit is soon on the prowl, and the town is up in arms, what with the annual vegetable contest close at hand. (Anyone who's seen the previous three shorts knows who saves the day.) Never content to do something simply when the extravagant will do, W&G's lives are filled with whimsical Rude Goldberg-style devices, and the opening number showcasing their alarm system is pure Aardman Animation at its finest. Even though there's a new twist here--a few mild sight gags aimed at adults--this G-rated film will delight young and old alike as Park, like team Pixar, seems incapable of making anything but an outstanding film. --Doug Thomas, Amazon.comNewest Review: ... revealed but I won't spoil it for you. Lots of Aardman characters show up, like Frank the Creature Comforts tortoise as a ... more ... security device.
I also saw the Lurpak Butter guy as one of the church door-posts. The whole King Kong skit, the Snoopy & Red Baron skit are lots of little throw-away gags which most people will want to buy the DVD to watch again as they happen so fast their over before you notice a lot of them. I think a lot of the plot and some running gags were thrown away as maybe too hard to do in the time limit to get the film into cinemas.
The film is visually excellent. It looks so nice, the CGI doesn't show too much. Some...more |

When the local Annual Giant Vegetable Competition is in peril due to an infestation of rabbits eating all the entrants's wares, Wallace & Gromit step up to save the day with their humane "Anti-Pesto" business. The only problem is they've ended up with thousands of rabbits and no way to get rid of them without killing them - which they are loath to do. So Wallace invents a way to brainwash them into disliking vegetables, but the scheme backfires on him, monstrously! This is the story behind "Wallace & Gromit in the Curse of the Ware-Rabbit" and here's what I think of this cracking new adventure. Wallace & Gromit aren't ...

I recently treated myself to a DVD. Being an adult in my mid-thirties, I obviously went for something for my age group – Wallace and Gromit – The Curse of the Were-rabbit. Family films are actually my favourites and I was really looking forward to seeing this one. Oh yes, and I knew the kids would like it too ;-) I bought the two-disc set from Amazon for £13.79. There are over two hours of extras on this as well as the film itself, so I am attempting to review it all. Please feel free to skip to the bits you’re interested in, if you don’t want to know about the rest. Film review This is the first full-length feature film to star Wallace ...
