  • Short back and sides, please...

    Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Oct 28, 2006
    Pros: Great animation, music, voice acting, humour...
    Cons: .... um....

    Summary: The third of the short Wallace and Gromit films, A Close Shave, is technically by far the most ambitious of the three, and is a very entertaining movie that every W&G fan will be truly happy with. I still marginally prefer “The Wrong ... read more

  • Cracking bit of entertainment, Gromit

    Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Mar 29, 2002
    Pros: Great, quirky animation
    Cons: A bit slow

    Summary: Ey up, Gromit, d'you want a bit of cheese? This is a cracking bit of Wensleydale... The deep and rounded vocals of Peter Sallis (pitifully wasted in the grossly overrated Last Of The Summer Wine) were made to give life to the ... read more

  • Academy Award Winning Clay...the Sequel!

    Nov 12, 2001
    Pros: Wallace falls in love...Gromit just falls
    Cons: A little slower than "The Wrong Trousers," but still delightful

    Summary: This is the third of the Wallace & Gromit adventures, and is absolutely as entertaining as the first two in the series. "A Close Shave," like "The Wrong Trousers," won an Academy Award, and deserved far more praise than it's seen so far. It's from Nick ... read more

  • Nick Park Needs A Close Shave With This Violent Production of Wallace & Gromit

    Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Sep 28, 2001
    Pros: Gromit's antics will make you laugh
    Cons: Too violent and scary

    Summary: Nick Park has entertained children and adults for years with his famous Wallace and Gromit claymation series of films. With meticulous minute movements, Nick Park’s characters take on a real life quality unlike any other claymation characters in the ... read more

  • Not a Baaaaad Flick

    Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Dec 4, 2000
    Pros: Hilarious movie!
    Cons: Its so short!

    Summary: When I first saw this movie on PBS, I knew that I would always love it. Just thinking of the time it takes to make each second of film, especially scenes where the people talk, it makes me wonder how it was done. But none of that matters ... read more

  • One Smart Dog!

    Sep 10, 2000
    Pros: Funny
    Cons: Not Long Enough

    Summary: If you want to show your kids a good movie and completely enjoy it yourself, you have to rent or purchase these Wallace and Gromit videos. I think out of the three Wallace and Gromit features that I have seen "A Close Shave" is my ... read more

  • A Nice bit of Wenslydale

    Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Jul 19, 2000
    Pros: Good Clean Entertainment
    Cons: Some language barrier issues for Non-Brits.

    Summary: Wallace and Gromit are the creations of Nick Park. Using clay-mation techniques our two heroes are animated frame by frame through some hilarious mishaps and adventures. As a fan of the works of Nick Park and Wallace & Gromit I had to see ... read more

  • Yet Another Great Wallace and Gromit Film

    Rated a Somewhat Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Jun 20, 2000
    Pros: Amazing Animation and a fun movie
    Cons: Feathers McGraw is in jail

    Summary: A great Movie that is fun for someone at any age. They've done it again! Made a movie good enough to come after the widely popular "The Wrong Trousers" which could be considered as one of the greatest animated movies of all time! This ... read more

  • Forget Disney, These are smarter

    Rated a Somewhat Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Jun 15, 2000
    Pros: Intelligent, unique - refreshing!
    Cons: none!

    Summary: This was just hilarious - I really enjoyed it. Compared to Disney, teletubbies, barney, etc., these are more intelligent, more clever, and funnier. My 2 year old loves them, and I love to watch them as well! Wallace's creative and quirky inventions ... read more

  • Naughty Sean! Eating that wire; there's porridge everywhere

    Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Jun 7, 2000
    Pros: humorous, wonderful animation, child-friendly
    Cons: not a one in my opinion

    Summary: Sheep-napping, A dog who knits and drinks tea, Robots, A Cheese-loving man, and more will be yours when you watch this 30 min animated short film. Wallace is an inventor who presently owns a window-washing business -- however it's Gromit, his ... read more

  • Wallace and Gromit Are Back, and So Are the Laughs

    Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    May 29, 2000
    Pros: very funny for kids and adults, good story
    Cons: may be a little too intense for the littlest ones, only 30 mins

    Summary: After being introduced to Nick Park's Wallace and Gromit with his 1994 short The Wrong Trousers, I was thrilled to see Park had created another short featuring the duo. For my money, the second installment of the series, A Grand Day ... read more

    Apr 3, 2000
    Pros: Great for kids, lots of action and humor that both Adults and Children can enjoy!
    Cons: It's hard to say anything bad about it... maybe that it's only 30 minutes long...

    Summary: This is the third installment from Nick Parks in the Wallace and Gromit chronicles. I had the pleasure of being introduced to Wallace and Gromit while I was working in England. I found their adventures to be very entertaining and quite humorous. ... read more
