That was an excellent one.
Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay
Absolutely the worst movie.
While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
Cracking film! What a film! The film is amazing and funny. Very British. People who can't understand the accent and says its Canadian, are just dumb. Like come on, the film's set in England, does not take a Wallace to figure out where the film is set. Aside from the stupid people who don't know what they are on about. The film is amazing. Watched it for the first time in about 7 years and still laughed at the quirky British jokes. Well done Ardman. I would recommend this film to anyone who wants to see a good British film and not see some Hugh Grant RomCom that's dated so badly its funny."It's poetry in motion" - Daniel Coombs
THE WRONG TROUSERS was a childhood favourite of mine and I'm pleased to say that it's one that continues to hold up in the modern day. I'm a big fan of Claymation and have been ever since I used to watch the adventures of Morph on the Tony Hart show back in the 1980s. Wallace and Gromit are fun too, although I think THE WRONG TROUSERS marked the peak of their career; nothing else they've been in has been as intense and funny as this.Everything about this 30-minute film is amazing. The pacing is incredibly fast, the film filled with action and constant funny humour. The heist plot is like that of an old Ealing Studios comedy and the character of Feathers McGraw somehow creepy and imposing despite being a Plasticine penguin. Gromit makes for a thoroughly lovable protagonist and the film is full of warmth and heart without ever crossing over into sickly sentiment. And it closes on THAT train chase, one of the finest chase scenes ever put on film, a 3-minute odyssey of sheer delight that never gets old. Bravo, Nick Park and team!
Wallace and Grommit: The Wrong Trousers: The Good, the Bad, and the UglyWallace and Grommit make a great team when they star in Nick Park's Claymation short The Wrong Trousers. But, as in most movies, this one has the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly.The Good: A great plot. A pair of techno-trousers. A sinister penguin. A diamond robbery. An amazing train chase scene. And, of course, cheese. Every one of these things alone makes this short definitely worthy of the 1993 Academy Award for the Best Animated Short. The Bad: Why do the techno-trousers walk away at the end of the movie? Is it because Feathers McGraw got away? Do the wrong trousers have another evil controller? The Ugly: There were three mistakes that I caught while watching the movie. The first was when Feathers is making Grommit wait for the bathroom. Wallace passes Grommit fully dressed. The next scene shows Wallace in a bathrobenot dressed in everyday clothes like he was a few seconds earlier. The next shows Grommit when he cut out a piece of cardboard to spy on Feathers McGraw. We don't see that little piece when we should. The last is right before the chase scene. Grommit is dangling from a light fixture with a light bulb in it, which Feathers shoots down. Next it shows Grommit with the fixture on his head. No crash of the bulb.Overall, it is a movie worth watchinggreat for kids and adults alike.
Wallace & Gromit really face a dark and sinister villain this time; a penguin. The penguin never speaks and he hardly does anything but it's this same subtlety that makes him such an evil sinister- and therefore at the same time also hilarious and amusing villain. I don't know what it is about penguins but they always work out as such superb and amusing characters in animated movies.The story is however of course far from likely. I mean, how did the penguin even knew Wallace had mechanical trousers that he could use for his heist. And why at all would you use the tall and sluggish, sleeping Wallace to do a robbery for you. It's just too risky and doesn't really sound like the right suiting master-plan for the criminal genius the penguin is.But oh well, this of course doesn't make this Oscar-winning short animated movie any less fun to watch. In this modern day and age of technology claymation doesn't seem like the best weapon of choice to deliver a good, entertaining and convincing looking movie with. However with Wallace & Gromit, Aardman Animations have never failed at it to bring a good, entertaining and convincing looking movie. It's pretty amazing what you can do with just some simple pieces of clay. Characters are given a real personalities and sequences are looking very well done and detailed, as if it comes straight from a multi-million dollar budget movie.Wallace & Gromit however are not part of multi-million dollar budget productions. It's always kept small and simple and that's the charm of it. It's all kept simple, yet it's done in an incredibly professional way. This is also always a part of the movie its comedy. The movie features many crazy and also unlikely situations, that are being shot in such an incredible serious way that they tend to become hilarious. Just like at the mini-train chase sequence at the end.Quality entertainment from Aardman Animations.8/10http://bobafett1138.blogspot.com/
