The Shaun the Sheep Movie manages to be smart, moving and hilarious without the inclusion of a single word of dialogue.

Plenty of bigger, more grown-up movies could learn a thing or two from its humanity.

Visually appealing and animal friendly, Shaun the Sheep celebrates summer - a break in the routine, loving it on the lam.
Brad Wheeler, Globe and Mail

The sight gags are so meticulously designed that they often recall Rube Goldberg inventions; much of the fun derives from seeing how the filmmakers pull off their elaborate comic scenarios.
