Völlig von der Wolle

I'll admit that I did not have any inclination to see this film, however upon seeing this, I must say that it was exceptionally well done. Of all the computer-generated films this has become one of my favorites, and a favorite of my younger brother. I highly recommend 'Sheep and Wolves' for any parents or babysitters to have ready.



As for the film itself, I was pleasantly surprised. It took traditional characters, like a wolf or a sheep, and assigned them to very nontraditional roles. With a wolf for protagonist, the film subtly explored many themes unknown to the child-oriented fantasy world. There are many lessons to be learned from this film, and at the same time it is very entertaining. The humor is mostly rather mild, and nothing in the film is ever vulgar. Anyway, the humor goes really well with the young kids, and they laugh a lot. Essentially, this film is for the entire family. Not too adult for the young kids, and not too childish to keep the attention of moms and dads. Very universal!

This movie amazed me. It was funny, smart, entertaining, and best of all, it was clean. By clean I mean that I could watch it with my friends and family and didn't have to be embarrassed. This movie had none of that stuff. It was just good clean family-oriented fun. If anyone of you have been searching for a great movie to watch with your family or significant other, then this is the one. You'll go away feeling good. Definitely worth the time to see or rent. Why couldn't other movies be just as good and clean?

This cartoon caught me with graphics. It is so beautiful. Just look at how the alpine meadows are shown. Sheep flocks. And in contrast to this, a forest and a flock of wolves. And then a magical change of one of the main characters. Every flock has its heroes, characters, who set the tone for the whole story. The cartoon will appeal not only to the child, but also to the adult. It clearly depicts good and evil. On whom it is worth to be equal, and who should be avoided. The cartoon deserves a solid four stars from 5!

When looking at the previews for Sheep and Wolves, I thought it was going to be some explosive animation, even if made for kids. Was I wrong! The film looks at the other side of life: that of the wolf who lives in the wolf's village and he's happy until something happens. This fantastically funny film entertained my whole family; adults, teenagers, and children were completely enthralled from beginning to end.

This is the third film from Wizart Animation Studio.

I have been following Wizart since their first film (The Snow Queen, 2012) and have noticed that their films have exponentially been getting better. This film is no exception to that trend (although it is only their #3).

Story: This is a timeless fairytale told from anamorphic Sheep and Wolves. The general concept is "despite their differences all life is precious and should be treated as such" which could be a valuable lesson this day and age. The characters are comically entertaining, while the voice actors (english cast) certainly knew how to make them lovable.

Animation: clearly a major improvement to The Snow Queen and Snow Queen 2, some blurry and odd animation sequences, but mostly minor scenes and were enjoyable scenes despite that.

Music: Seemed like the composer had a better handle on this film than The Snow Queen. Still nothing hummable, but final song was fun.

-I only wish that Wizart would hurry up with a DVD/BD release here in the United States already. I really would like to share this with other people.
