Stop That Penguin!

Stop-motion with a British flavor. The kind that doesn't try to whack you over the head with it's look, humor or more importantly, with any kind of "universal life-lesson". With a distinction from other films that is much more subtle and evenly consistent, the overall result of The Wrong Trousers left me not so much with a roaring laughter that many other animated features try to shoot for, but ... read more

Pretty much like with 'A Close Shave', 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. However, in my opinion, I think it is actua... read more
View all Wallace & Gromit: The Wrong Trousers reviews
Plasticine animation of the loveable duo of Wallace and Gromit; inventors of all manner of useful devices. In this Oscar winning story, Gromit (a dog) finds himself being pushed out of his room and home by a new lodger who is actually a ruthless criminal (and a small penguin). The penguin is planning a robbery and needs to use Wallace and his mechanical remote controlled trousers to pull off the raid. However, Gromit is wise to the penguin and comes to the rescue. A must see for all ages.

" What was it about? Gromit butts heads with a mysterious penguin lodger, who hatches a sinister scheme involving the ex-NASA Techno Trousers that have been modified by Wallace for walkies.

A very good movie

“Pretty much like with 'A Close Shave', 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. However, in my opinion, I think it is actually the best Wallace and Gromit feature or, at least, it is my favorite one. Indeed, it was with this movie that Nick Park did set most of the trademarks that would be running through all this franchise. Sure, they might have improved the clay-motion technique afterwards but, after all these years, this short still looks pretty awesome though and it is above all so damned entertaining.” read more

Pop Culture Phenomenon Films: 90’s (1929 movies items)

" A debut for Wallace & Gromit, and directed by Nick Park, The Wrong Trousers, is considered to be a high mark for animation. The Wrong Trousers debuted in the United States on 17 December 1993, and the United Kingdom on 26 December 1993 on BBC Two. It was commercially successful, and won the Academy Award for Best Animated Short Film in 1994. It also inspired a charity fundraising day, known as "Wrong Trousers Day", one of several events. The Wrong Trousers was followed by A Close Shave, The"

50 Moments of Cinematic Wonder (50 movies items)

"THE WRONG TROUSERS - THE TRAIN-TOP CHASE After the success of his first Wallace and Gromit short ‘A Grand Day Out’, Nick Park’s second short starring the pair, ‘The Wrong Trousers’, is one of the great masterpieces of animation. Improving in every way on its predecessor, this Film Noir style tale of an eerie penguin lodger, a pair of robotic trousers and a diamond heist remains the definitive Wallace and Gromit film and became an instant classic from the moment it was first screened.
