Review - Shaun the Sheep

Have just watched this with Louis and I completely forgot how amazing this is. With reference to some of the points made by Barry Purves it shows the art of the gag set up really well, but what I love most is that like watching a good silent movie you hardly notice it has no speaking in it. This is due to amazing music, the tempo tells the story so well and for example there is a very definite sound when Shaun has an idea etc. Also the use of expression or the thought process can be seen really well, so it goes to show there are times when less is more and the need for a language based narrative is totally unnecessary.

And who can resist a laughing sheep :)
