Aussie boy's thoughts

The movie is basically just the typical episode of the TV show, except it’s extended, funner and more original. Shaun the Sheep Movie is another one of those exceptionally cute kids’ animations that you can’t deny is sweet, but it surprisingly does much more than just delivering pleasurable entertainment to children.

Fans of the show and those looking for family-friendly animations need to make a definite stop here. Alike the episodes you’d see on TV, the movie totally avoids verbal dialogue and sticks to visual themes that’ll creatively make sure you’re correctly understanding the events, occurrences and the purpose. Since the creators have all amounts of minutes they can fit an appealing story into, they choose something the series wouldn’t do and they design a sustained adventure.

The stop-motion clay animation is just as bright and witty as it is in the show. The music, sound effects and the grunting or laughing or “baaaa”ing noises the characters make are totally flawless. And the tale is just as likely to please and entertain as much adults as it will with children.
