Critics Consensus

The Curse of the Were-Rabbit is a subtly touching and wonderfully eccentric adventure featuring Wallace and Gromit.

Kevin Maher

The Times (UK)

Ralph Fiennes is inspired casting in his first fully comedic role as the gun-toting Victor Quartermaine, but Helena Bonham Carter steals the movie as the guileless animal-loving aristocrat Lady Tottington of Tottington Hall.

Rated: 5/5

Daily Telegraph (UK)

The Curse of the Were-Rabbit, featuring his heroic man-and-dog duo, Wallace and Gromit, is Park at his sublimely silly best.

Gone With The Twins

It may utilize a few stalling tactics to stretch out an already quick runtime, but the procession of events is still largely engaging.

The story moves quickly, as animated films must, entertaining adults as well as children with its layers of meaning and mischief.

Were they inspired by the Simpsons Treehouses of Horror? We all just love this. This movie introduced me to Dreamworks - that & Aardman are the reasons why I love Dreamworks. Although they really are better off apart due to creative differences & the possibly chance of ruining its Britishness, I only said for nostalgic memories I got from the collaboration of 3 movies. Their movie is obviously exciting. It is brilliant with the casting & hilarity/humour. There is another meaning, being humane for rabbits - Lady Tottington created a rabbit sanctuary outside her own home where those innocent pesty creatures cannot ruin your beloved vegetable patches in your garden neither be hunted down by someone like Victor.

The duo's first outing on the big screen, what a treat! The animation keeps that Aardman signature, the comedy is excellent and is even more hilarious if you watch it as an adult, the characters are memorable and I love the music because its so cinematic.

Perfect fun. Great hidden humour strewn throughout, and is perfect for young kids or family members who are simply looking for Halloween fun in a movie, without any gore or jump scares. The classic animation of Wallace and Gromit combined with clever humour makes this a great choice.
