Audience Member A hugely fun animated comedy. This film make is a huge improvement to the series. The dog transformed into a robot was a little unsettling but appealing enough for kids and adults alike. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/19/24 Full Review Aender S The best of the Wallace & Gromit shorts. Great animation and excellent humour. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 04/11/24 Full Review Simmy G Out of all the stop motion projects I have seen, this is by far one of the best, especially when Gromit forgot the cheese and then the demon FNaF furry tries to turn Wallace into dog food. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/03/23 Full Review Audience Member A Close Shave is an imperfect, but nonetheless genuinely outstanding, follow-up to the genuinely perfect The Wrong Trousers. This short film, like its predecessor, stuffs so much imaginative visual quirks that it almost feels like a miracle in itself; this 30-minute film has more imagination than half of the >$100M/150+ Minute blockbusters of today (and this is coming from someone who actually defends the often-overlooked moments of genuine creativity that many of those movies have). It also features a surprisingly tense final act, one so effective that I actually slightly criticize it for being too intense, as it's less like the horror-trope approach of 'Were-Rabbit', and more like they literally put the ending of the first Terminator into a Wallace & Gromit short. Regardless, this is a wonderfully energetic short film featuring one of entertainment's finest duos of all time, as well as a heck of a lot of twists for such a short film.

Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Genuinely my favorite Wallace & Gromit short, A Close Shave is both entertaining and emotional at the same time.
