Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit Audience Reviews

Cubussoli Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
WasAnnon Slow pace in the most part of the movie.
KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
invisibleunicornninja This movie is very well done. Its clever and the animation is fantastic. I wouldn't recommend showing this to a child though (it gave me and, from what I can tell, many others nightmares). Rewatching this, I can see how this is a great movie. Its not very child-friendly though. I was terrified of this when I was younger. Its not that scary if you're above the age of 5, but if you're not then this will probably scare you.
Noxxie (excuse my English, it is not my native language)I haven't watched this movie in over 10 years. And after all this time of not seeing anything about it, and neither my parents or my sister remembering it, I thought it might have been a weird fragment of my imagination, some weird fantasy thing kids come up with. I don't know if I should be happy this is real, or terrified. Happy because I'm not insane, terrified because other kids might have seen it too.As a kid I watched this movie once or twice, but it gave me nightmares, and sometimes still have nightmares about it, I don't know if its the weird idea of a guy turning into a were-rabbit, or my fear of the machines Wallace build (how they could kill you in a single malfunction), or the fact that stop motion animation was just not my thing as a kid.The only reason why I'm giving it two stars is because I can't remember it that well, but I sometimes my thoughts wander back to this movie, and it still scares me.
gavin6942 Wallace and his loyal dog, Gromit, set out to discover the mystery behind the garden sabotage that plagues their village and threatens the annual giant vegetable growing contest.This is a film that is both good and bad. Fans of Wallace, Gromit and Nick Park will probably enjoy it. The time and effort that goes into this kind of animation is unbelievable. Is it harder than hand-drawing? Maybe, maybe not... but everything has to be just right, which makes it seem like more of a process than the computer animation of today (2015).But the story is not that great, or at least not as memorable. Today, "Wrong Trousers" and "Chicken Run" are something of modern classics, but "Were Rabbit" has been more or less forgotten. A huge splash in 2005-2006, perhaps, but only decreasing in popularity since. Unfortunate, really, given the great voice talent (Helena Bonham Carter, Ralph Fiennes) involved.
Thomas Stansfield To the people who are saying 'This has no plot' chances are your just too stupid to understand a good story line. There is plot and the claymation is remarkably good. There is so much detail on the buildings and town. There are good laughs too, I bet the people who said they don't get laughter is obviously an American who doesn't get British humour, no offense to the people who do. Yes there are some sexual innuendos but they are for the adults. Many shows like 'The Animanics' and the 'Rugrats' and even 'Cat In The Hat', despite it been so terribly done, have some innuendos in them and people who grew up with the show love it now as an adult. These types of jokes are for the adults as the creators know there'll be adults taking their kids to see this movie. Kids won't even understand the joke, but if they do tell them when they're or if they consider it understanding it themselves. I enjoy the movie, I understand the British humour this movie has like the 1-hour long specials. Most people might think the villain is not as great as the ones in the shorts. They see him more as a pompous person who's after a woman's money. But isn't Gaston from 'Beauty and The Beast' like that as well? Pompous? The film had done a great tribute to other classic films like 'King Kong' and 'The Curse of the Werewolf' and that is another thing with people saying they don't like this movie, 'Why can't there be a werewolf?' That would make the movie bad, why would there be a vegetable competition and a werewolf involve? That doesn't make any sense! A Were-Rabbit is good for comedy as they do vegetables such as carrots.I'm not against everyone's opinions here, but if you don't understand what the movie is about and hate it because of a villain or the use of a 'Were-Rabbit' instead of Wolf or its British humour but without any proper explainable reason why, then I'm not going to take your opinions seriously.The movie is great and it deserves the award back in 2006 for its outstanding animation and comedic storyline. I like the shorts and this movie and I do hope one day they make another Wallace and Gromit movie.
