Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit
After how surprisingly funny Vengeance Most Fowl was, E & I wanted to explore the rest of this franchise, and we went back to the first feature length film, the Curse of the Were-Rabbit. Though it won Best Animated Feature in 2005, it was decidedly inferior to Most Fowl. The claymation was excellent, as expected, but it wasn’t nearly as funny as I had hoped. Regardless,. this is a very cute franchise, and excellent content for kids & parents, or just animation enjoyers like ZEJ.

Not nearly as laugh-out-loud funny as Vengeance Most Fowl, but still a very charming, slightly spooky movie with excellent claymation. The additions of Ralph Fiennes and Helena Bonham Carter were also fun here. The story just felt a little more predictable and kid-focused compared with last year’s edition. I’m excited to follow the future of this franchise!
