" What was it about? Wallace's whirlwind romance with the owner of the local wool shop puts his head in a spin; Gromit is framed for sheep-rustling in a fiendish criminal plot. My two cents: I actually watched this movie for the first time in the movie theater which was a total blast and I do have it as well on DVD. So, I do have seen it couple of times, even many times, and, yet, it has been a while and I actually have a hard time to remember it in details so I guess I should re-watch it at"
“I actually watched this movie for the first time in the movie theater which was a total blast and I do have it as well on DVD. So, I do have seen it couple of times, even many times, and, yet, it has been a while and I actually have a hard time to remember it in details so I guess I should re-watch it at some point. The fact that I don't remember much about it probably has to do with the fact that, even though I'm a huge of Wallace and Gromit, I do think that their movies, above all their plot, are just too similar. Still, I won't deny that the whole thing looks really awesome and that these 2 characters are just hilarious and you should absolutely watch it if you have the slightest interest in clay-motion pictures.

"Rarely does a short film make it onto my list of favorite films, but when it comes to Wallace and his dutiful dog Gromit, any feature with their names on it are gonna be included. The third in trilogy of animated shorts (after this, the dynamic stop-motion duo move up into the big times with full length movies), the man and his "best friend" clumsily come across an illegal sheep rustling scheme and find out that it's quite the dog-eat-dog business.

"Best Animated Short! Winner: Wallace & Gromit in A Close Shave! Nominees: The Chicken From Outer Space The End Gagarin Runaway Brain"

"DIR: Nick Park SUMMARY: Wallace and Gromit's window-cleaning service inadvertently draws them into a dastardly plot involving sheep rustlers, dog food and a small sheep called Shaun. WHY IT'S HERE: While the third Wallace and Gromit film fails to improve on their second outing, 'The Wrong Trousers' (few things could), it comes about as close as imaginable. Nick Park has pulled out all the stops to create a truly show-stopping short film and he was rewarded for his efforts with another Oscar."
