Cute, satisfying, and slightly disappointing
18 October 2005
This movie was cute. It satisfied the great demand for a Wallace and Gromit movie. However, this movie reeks of big wig Hollywood involvement. One of the great things about The wrong trousers was that it was mainly focused on Wallace and Gromit. There was very little involvement of the townspeople. The fun was the fact that Wallace was a complete bumbling idiot who could not invent to save his life. The wrong trousers was a unique story that revitalized the claymation genre. This story has been done to death. I felt like I was watching sections of King Kong, Jumanji, and Gumby all mixed into to one. Wallace and Gromit are more suited to shorts. After about twenty minutes they loose their mystique and interest. I know that a lot of people talk about the references to those movies but if the makers of Wallace and Gromit had to resort to cheap pops (fan response) tactics perhaps they were not ready to make a full length feature film.
