    It probably took them years to make, and its good fun but it?s nowhere near as good as the previous Wallace & Gromit adventures.

    The bumbling cheese lover and his canine side kick return once again in this, the highest rated TV show on British TV this Christmas. This time they tangle with a bread hating serial killer and it's pretty much a case of more of the same. Unfortunately it's nowhere near as invent...( read more)ive or surreal as the earlier outings, but it still has plenty of amusing sight gags and slapstick combined with cringe inducing puns. Although it's never really laugh out loud funny, the animation is as top notch as always, and when the characters are seen in extreme close up, you can even see the fingerprints of the animators embedded in the clay; this is an example of the kind of care and attention that plasticky computer generated cartoons can never reproduce. And where else can you see a scene that combines homages to both the original Adam West Batman film AND Aliens?!

    Flat and uninspired entry in the cannon with a by-the-numbers plot and few fresh ideas. Disappointing.

    A short animation of Wallace and Gormit who are bakers. Wallace falls for the Baker Lite advertising girl. There just happens to be a serial baker killer on the loose. Gormit has to save Wallace.

    A pretty good entry into the Wallace and Gromit collection. However it is one of the short ones only 30 minutes long, some nice jokes as always but a very simple plot. Great for fans or youngsters but many would enjoy the longer and better curse of the Were-Rabbit.

    You gotta love Gromit and his genius.
  • October 15, 2009
    Not as great as previous Wallace and Gronit shorts or the movie, but still decently funny and a good story. And for some reason it was full of refrences to other movies like ALIENS, BATMAN, and GHOST. Why? I'm not sure.
    Still I love claymation so that's always a plus, because yo...( read more)u know the people who made this worked heard on it.
    Sallis does his usual good work as Wallace and Lindsey does a good job as the new love interest Piella.
    Wallace and Gromit fans won't be to disappointed in this one and will enjoy another outing with the lovable duo.

    Not nearly as brilliant as Were-Rabbit which I enjoyed tremendously. A very simple plot and short, not much new ideas.
  • October 7, 2009
    Once again, a good story-line and feature has been produced. Wallace and Gromit are as funny as ever, plus new gags enable more laughs and smiles.
