Shaun the Sheep Movie Reviews
[A] sweet and funny tale...
| Oct 4, 2022
Delightfully free of the stifling commercial sensibilities embraced by today's most popular animated features, the film may not venture into unexplored narrative territory, but its pleasures are clever, sweet, and often hilarious.
| Original Score: 3.5/4 | May 29, 2022
Through outstanding slapstick, imaginatively choreographed chase sequences, and all manner of visual gags, an engaging story unfolds.

This is the cinematic equivalent of little puppies or kittens: it's just impossible to hate.
| Original Score: B | Jul 15, 2020
From its ease with wordless communication to the exuberant pleasure it takes in runaway vehicles and ludicrous chases, there's no doubt that this film is suffused with the spirit of great silent comedy cinema.

The Shaun the Sheep Movie follows the path of least resistance, a feature-length episode that ups the ante and will appeal to audiences young and old with its knockabout British charm.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Apr 4, 2019
It's this playfulness with real-world logic that makes animated features such a treasure, especially today.

You could totally show [Shaun the Sheep] in 20 years and it would... still be funny.
| Original Score: 8/10 | Feb 14, 2019
Kids will certainly love the hijinks, but parents, especially members of Generation X, might want to join in for a movie that subtly and shrewdly revisits the John Hughes classic Ferris Bueller's Day Off.
| Original Score: B+ | Oct 17, 2017
Borrow a young relative for cover if you must, but believe me, you are not too cool for a kid's movie when it's this much fun.

Shear entertainment.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Jul 9, 2017
The Shaun the Sheep movie won't change the world, but it should act as a wake up call for any animator who sees it - to stop pandering to your audiences and concentrate on entertaining them.

Aardman is at its best with visual thrills, but even its best efforts can't bolster a questionable script.

The team at Aardman is back with Shaun the Sheep, another endlessly delightful animal romp based on the 2007 television series.

Such technical brilliance from Aardman Animations should be no surprise by this stage. What really hits you is the persistent level of charm and hilarity as it coasts along.
