SHAUN THE SHEEP MOVIE (2015)

Though I've never seen the TV series, being a huge fan of Aardman Animations (Chicken Run, all things Wallace & Gromit) made it a no-brainer to watch this charming animated feature about a very smart and rambunctious sheep, whose ingenious plan to have him and his friends take a day off working the farm backfires when their farmer ends up in the Big City with amnesia, and Shaun and his sheep friends - along with the farmer's dog - have to go and rescue him.  For about the first twenty minutes this film felt very much "for kids only" to me - but once things kick in, Shaun the Sheep Movie turns quickly into a funny, sweet, relatable, and very lovable story for all ages, about friendship and banding together and realizing there is, indeed, "no place like home."  Hopefully ewe'll love it as much as I did!
