Utterly, utterly dreadful film. It's like the guys at Aardman Animations thought, "Right, what can we do with Shaun and his pals now? Hey, about we combine them with an ET / Star Wars theme?" Disastrous and unfortunate, all at the same time. There were quite a few families with kids of different ages in the cinema, and you hardly heard a laugh from them the whole way through. Was glad to escape from it before an hour was up. If you think this might have the charm and quirky humour of the Wallace and Gromit series of films, you'll be bitterly disappointed. Avoid it!
