As Good As It Gets
Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies
The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
One of Britain's most recognisable duos, the claymation Wallace and Gromit (who's other appearances are all cracking adventures too, I might add), bring their home-spun and wholesome humour to the big- screen in a big way with what I can honestly say is one of the funniest films I have had the pleasure of watching, one that is carefully crafted to be a charming and entertaining experience that is almost impossible to fault mainly because there is not a single moment that seems out of place - not to mention the fact that the flick keeps a huge smile on your face throughout; of course it is also beautifully animated and holds a hugely tactile aesthetic that makes each frame feel both grounded and alive, but the piece also places an emphasis on its smartly written screenplay and several nuanced sight-gags to elevate what some could consider simple 'kids- material' into something that can be enjoyed by an extremely wide audience, while its story and visuals also include a couple of nice call-backs to horror movies past which cement the picture as a very cine-literate one that knows its place and relishes it. 8/10
Wallace and Gromit: Curse of the Were-Rabbit (2005): Dir: Nick Park, Steve Box / Voices: Ralph Fiennes, Helena Bonham Carter, Peter Sallis, Peter Kay, Nicholas Smith: From the creators of Chicken Run comes this amusing and often funny claymation about fear and confusion. Wallace and his smart dog Gromit own a pest control company. The giant vegetable competition is upcoming but a strange beast is destroying the crops. Directors Nick Park and Steve Box are backed with a clever screenplay. Peter Sallis voices Wallace who is an inventor out to solve a problem regarding rabbits only to have it backfire. Gromit is his faithful dog who suspects more than what is floating on the surface. He will also be instrumental in solving the plot problem. Other roles are mainly standard issue although certain voice talents help. Ralph Fiennes voices the antagonist whose scheme will reverse on itself, and Helena Bonham Carter voices what will become the potential love interest, but in the mean time she heads the festival and witnesses the havoc. Other characters are flat and pale in comparison to the two lead heroes. While this is easily another creative claymation wonder, it doesn't quite achieve the level of success of Chicken Run and its clever references to prison films It does succeed in dealing with a less adult subject matter than film, with its warped references to what one creates. Score: 9 / 10
"The Curse of the Were-Rabbit" is an Animation movie in which we watch Wallace and his loyal dog, Gromit who are trying to solve the mystery of garden sabotage which threatens the annual giant vegetable growing contest. Also we observe Wallace and Victor Quartermaine fight for the love of Lady Campanula Tottington.I liked this movie because it's a different kind of Animation movies that we watch nowadays and the plot of it's really good. Also about the cast it has to be mentioned that Peter Sallis (Wallace and Hutch) and Ralph Fiennes (Victor Quartermaine) voices were really one of the best selections for this movie characters and I believe that they really fit on them. Also the voice of Helena Bonham Carter who "played" as Lady Campanula Tottington was equally good selection.Finally I have to say that "The Curse of the Were-Rabbit" is a must see movie for Animation fans and I believe that from this movie we can gain many things.
I watched this movie for maybe 30minutes. Wallace & Gromit were hired by people that had gardens. They had a truck and would capture animals that would ruin people's gardens.They would capture lots of rabbits and them back to their business. There was a built in shoot at in the kitchen like a laundry shoot and they would take rabbits by the bunch and let them slide down the shoot where they all landed and stayed captured. They would dice up lots of carrots and send them down the shoot to feed the rabbit.When things start getting out of hand Wallace starts to experiment how he could brainwash the rabbits into not eating cabbage, carrots and other vegetables. He used an electric helmet attached to his head and put the rabbits in a tube where they get the signals from his brain to theirs.Something went wrong and they changed. At some point I stopped watching because they show a rabbit breaking into a church and breaking the stain glass windows. There was a Cross in the church that ended up on the ground and the minister sees something that scares him and uses two cucumber as a cross to block the scary rabbit and faints.Aardman makes great animation movies and series like Shaun the Sheep. I felt this was insulting so I stopped watching. Humor is good but not when you use religious objects in a offensive way just because it is in a animated movie.
