Aardman's four-time Academy Award®-winning director Nick Park and Emmy Award-nominated Merlin Crossingham return with a brand new epic adventure, Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl. In this next installment, Gromit's concern that Wallace is becoming too dependent on his inventions proves justified, when Wallace invents a "smart" gnome that seems to develop a mind of its own. When it emerges that a vengeful figure from the past might be masterminding things, it falls to Gromit to battle sinister forces and save his master... or Wallace may never be able to invent again!

Critics Consensus

Comforting as cheese and crackers, with some gentle ribbing of modern technology sprinkled on top, Vengeance Most Fowl revives this lovable pair with all their charm intact.

Little White Lies

Teamed with formidable voice talent in the form of Ben Whitehead, Peter Kay Lauren Patel and Reece Shearsmith it’s a cosy, classic Aardman treat, perfect for Wallace and Gromit fans of any age – and Feathers McGraw remains as menacing as ever.

Rated: 4/5

San Francisco Chronicle

Clocking in at a mere 79 minutes, featuring plenty of laughs and climaxing with a rousing chase, “Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl” is an impressive feat of clay, a winning choice in a competitive animated holiday season.

Rated: 3/4

Neither better nor worse [than its predecessor], the new adventure from the Aardman Animations studio is hilarious, naïve in the best sense of the word and well suited to share with the kids. [Full review in Spanish]

Rated: 4/4

Tampa Bay Newspapers

Sometimes, it’s nice to watch a film that isn’t blatantly trying to endorse a specific agenda, or proffer deep philosophical insight, or entice viewers into purchasing an endless stream of merchandise.

My wife and I have always loved Wallace & Gromit, but in this one, we both felt that the jokes were getting stale, and repetitive. We each giggled about twice during the movie, and mostly watched in silence. Maybe time to go back to doing shorter form work with a new perspective.

I love Wallace and Gromit, but this film was a disappointment. The animation was astonishing but the plot felt unoriginal, the script felt forced, the screenplay was too slick - the charm was lost. The Curse of the Were-Rabbit was a triumph but they didn't manage to replicate the fun, wit and tension with Vengeance Most Fowl - the film feels flat and derivative, with too many not-very-funny in-jokes and little of genuine interest to capture the imagination. Feathers became a parody of himself and the robots were scary but mainly annoying - the villains lacked the psychopathic threat that Victor, Paella, Preston and the original Feathers somehow encapsulated. The new characters felt much shallower and more incidental in this film - in previous films Lady Tottington, Fluffles, Wendolene all had a genuine impact on and agency in the story-telling. I adjusted to Wallace's new voice (which is really rather impressively close to the original) but somehow the line delivery felt less authentic than Peter Sallis'. I love re-watching the other shorts and films time and again, but I've had to force myself to re-watch this one which is such a shame. All in all, it grated (cheesy pun very much intended).

A transitional W&G which feels quite a bit boring for older gens, but maybe good for youngers. There's a inauthentic quality to its world which rides on the coattails of the franchise's "vintage" past. I've seen it twice, too many times. This one is now for the little kids.

Immediately sunk into the world of 62 West Wallaby Street through the still incredibly engaging characters. As classic, fun & clever as ever. Loved every minute.
