If you've got dancing chickens, you've got entertainment.

Rating: 9/10 (24 June 2000)

This is a great movie on all levels, but especially for its amazing clamation. Even people unfamiliar with Wallace and Gromit (Nick Park's other plasticine stars and Oscar winners) will enjoy this. It starts a little slow, but just sit back, relax and wait for it to kick in to high gear. By the last half-hour you will be slumping over in your chair busting a gut. It's just so sweet, so well-written and so simply amazing to watch these animated creatures do their work. The humor slides from light to slapstick and, as with all good actors, these creations hit their marks. Their timing is perfect. What a delightful adventure to watch unfold on the screen.
