Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of...

Helena Bonham Carter, John Thomson, Liz Smith, Peter Kay, Peter Sallis

It's 'vege-mania' in Wallace and Gromit's neighborhood, and our two enterprising chums are cashing in with their humane pest-control outfit, "Anti-Pesto." With only days to go before the annual Giant ...( read more  read more... )Vegetable Competition, business is booming, but Wallace & Gromit are finding out that running a "humane" pest control outfit has its drawbacks as their West Wallaby Street home fills to the brim with captive rabbits. Suddenly, a huge, mysterious, veg-ravaging "beast" begins attacking the town's sacred vegetable plots at night, and the competition hostess, Lady Tottington, commissions Anti-Pesto to catch it and save the day. Lying in wait, however, is Lady Tottington's snobby suitor, Victor Quartermaine, who'd rather shoot the beast and secure the position of local hero -- not to mention Lady Tottington's hand in marriage. With the fate of the competition in the balance, Lady Tottington is eventually forced to allow Victor to hunt down the vegetable chomping marauder. Little does she know that Victor's real intent could have dire consequences for her and our two heroes.

    This grew on me second time round and now rates up there with 'Close Shave', if a little behind their masterpiece 'The Wrong Trousers'. Full of their trademark visual invention, awful puns and cute animals.

    Wallace: "I'm sorry, Gromit. I know you're doing this for my own good, but the fact is I'm just crackers about cheese. Look, if I must change me ways, at least let me do it my way, with technology.

    Wallace is a cheese loving inventor of extraordinary contraptions and Gromit is his faithful and street-wise dog. Despite Wallace's inventive cleverness, he is quite the halfwit and without Gromit around to save him from bad decisions, he would have perished long ago. In Curse of the Were-Rabbit, the duo have started a business venture called Anti-Pesto- a humane pest control service cherished by the local vegetable growing community for protecting their gardens, particularly during the lead up to the annual Giant Vegetable Competition at Tottington Manor. All is fine until a monster sized rabbit starts terrorising the local veggie patches and leaving Anti-Pesto's reputation in tatters. To complicate matters further Wallace has fallen for Lady Tottington (voiced by Helena Bonham Carter) after impressing her with his humane pest control techniques. This infuriates jealous Victor Quartermaine (Ralph Fiennes) whose only solution to anything seems to involve a gun. Smart, fast, and incredibly funny, Curse informs as it entertains. There are ample discussion-worthy lessons for young adults starting with the reality that do-gooders sometime cause harm despite noble intentions. The Curse of the Were-Rabbit may be a fine reminder of the magic of stop-motion animation, but there's so much more to it; lovable characters, fun situations, and a story that can be enjoyed by all.

    The epitome of Nick Park's creations and the work of those brilliant minds at Aardman Animations. Smart, hilarious, transcendentally silly fun, sure to enchant toddlers, great-grandparents and everybody in between. Among the most inventive animated films ever made.
