Summary: What's Wrong with Wensleydale?
Review: The Wallace and Gromit adventures are superb. They're witty and visually stunning. What's amazing is the attention to detail, which increases with each adventure (raindrops sliding down windows and splashing off raincoats, and even the front forks of a motorcycle bouncing up and down as it rolls over bumps in the road). The number of facial expressions displayed by Gromit (the dog) are amazing when you consider that all he does is move his brow. The final adventure, "A Close Shave", is unbelieveably ambitious, but it's all executed brilliantly. The music is perfect as are the voices. The cinematography and set design are movie-quality. The animal characters like the penguin and the sheep are hilarious just by their facial experssions and movements. Not to mention the moon cleaner and his dreams of skiing down the Alps. When we're constantly being bombarded by cheap animation in which only every other frame is drawn and filmed twice (hence the jerky movements), Wallace and Gromit are reminders that there are animators out there who care about their craft and not just mass production. It just doesn't get better than this.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Wallace and Gromit
Review: I LOVE Wallace and Gromit! Not only are the plots and lines funny, but the visual effects are hysterical. I liked them as a child, and I like them as much or more now that I am in college.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A must for anyone who wants to have an extremely funny time!
Review: Excelent technique meets brilliant screenplays in each one of the three short adventures. Where can I start with?... the W&G adventures are funny, touching and full of perfectly - paced action and FX ... PLUS you get four early animations and more!!. I want more Aardman animation DVDs!!, the world NEEDS more people like Nick Park!! (Cant wait to pick up some DVD with the academy award winning "Creature Comforts" in the future)

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: must see for parents and children
Review: spectacularly funny and whitty. wallace and gromit will thrill you and your kids in all three adventures. my children ages 2 and 3 are as entertained as my wife and I. We watch them often before bedtime.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The BEST Movies for Kids and Adults
Review: You're a parent and you know the kids want to watch the same video over and over and over.... What to do? Buy this gift set! Wallace and Gromit are hysterical the 20th time as well as the first. While "A Grand Day Out" is only good, "The Wrong Trousers" and "A Close Shave" are two of the funniest 30 minutes ever put down on video tape. Also, very appropriate for little ones. My 4 & 6 year old can't get enough of it (although the 4 year old is a little scared of "Grand Day Out"). Perfect family viewing

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Must have collection from Nick Parkes
Review: It's been a very long wait for new Wallace & Gromit material, so this is a must for Nick Parkes fans.

The claymation models and characterisations are great.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Fantastic
Review: These videos are soo much fun. Onfortunately, I spent to much to buy them on video tape and will probably buy them on DVD as well (because I cannot resist). These are especcially good for people who are just learning english as the visuals are enough to convey the story. I only wish there were more than 5 stars.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Something for all ages
Review: I discovered W & G at the age of 22 but I would have been equally fascinated with them at 2 or 102. A Grand Day Out - 3 stars, The Wrong Trousers - 6 stars, A Close Shave - 6 stars, oh can't we have another one Nick?

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Best Claymation films ever!
Review: All 3 of these videos are so funny and cute. I love the way Wallace and his dog gromit relate to each other. I would highly recommend them to all ages! Hilarious!!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Brilliant animation, lots of family fun!!
Review: Unbelievably fun!! I've watched these 100 times and still see details I missed before! Well crafted, with a dry sense of humor, the kids watch it over again with me! Especially a favorite is Gromit with his telling expressions... I wish there were more of these to come!
