A Grand Day Out (1990)

You won't be disappointed!

It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.

This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

Wallace wonders what to do for the bank holiday. He finds that he's run out of cheese and decides to go on a cheese vacation. He and his dog Gromit build a rocket and travel to the moon. While sampling the moon cheese, they encounter a robot set up as a vending machine. The robot gets fascinated from Wallace's travel magazine about skiing.Nick Park has created one of the funnier claymation characters in this 23 minute short. They are fun together. Wallace is great as the clueless inventor and Gromit is the smarter of the two. They are just fun together like an old married couple. The claymation also gives a charm to the animation. It's a great start for these characters.

When I think of Wallace and gromit I think of British with a side order of cheese with a balance of fun and scary! This one is mostly fun apart from the robot (which I'm the only one who thinks his money power will run out and be forgotten in space nowhere to be seen on google earth) even if it's more liked by children, that doesn't mean it's bad. Wallaces face is not perfected and not the best of the shorts but I still recommend it. Why? Well it's still Wallace and gromit and your still going to get some funny jokes and a happy ending plus the 2nd best version of the Wallace and gromit theme at the end credits, I really enjoy it. My Favourite parts is the end and building the rocket. Peters voice is great with some great claymation and starting a great score I recommend it!

Such a basic film. Sure, it took many years and I must give the director much credit because of this. I wouldn't have the time nor patience to do something that I didn't know would or wouldn't work.The story was a bit basic, however. Going to the moon to take some cheese and eat it with your crackers. Plus, they obviously were in the story world because they didn't have any sort of gear to protect themselves.But you know, I don't really care. These days you have to have things perfect or with a good reason, else it isn't convincing. Back then people accepted things the way they were.Rated 8/10 :)

"Gromit, we've forgotten the crackers!" Wallace and Gromit are very funny, very cute little claymation characters that go on adventures so that everybody can have a good time. In this short, they go to the moon, because everyone knows it's made out of cheese, and cheese is what they want. When they get there, it's a bit different than they expected, but that doesn't stop them from exploring around and running into a little mischief with a robot thing that happens to be left there (and take Earthling money, too...).It's quite a charming little duo, this Wallace and Gromit. Wallace is the inventor with a smile on his face and the plans to do whatever he fancies, while Gromit is his concerned protector, chasing after him to make sure his master is okay. The claymation is of the finest sort, with their expressions perfect and a lot of depth to their eyes.Just remember: don't forget the crackers.--PolarisDiB
