9/10
Absolutely smashing!
11 February 2008
This is the first Wallace and Gromit film and while not quite as polished as later ones (hence the 9 and not a score of 10), it was a magnificent film. In light of its fantastic graphics and lovely story, it was nominated for the Oscar for Best Animated Short Film--which it lost, oddly enough, to another film from the same studio! CREATURE COMFORTS is a much simpler film--shorter and with a single gimmick (which you either loved or hated--I hated it) and I have no idea why the Wallace and Gromit short lost--it was head and shoulders above this other film.

This short has to do with both introducing the characters as well as giving them something to do--in this case, taking a trip to the moon to satisfy Wallace's pathological love for cheese! It's got all the expected gags and style--a lovely film really and one you MUST watch (really)!
