Featured reviews
This movie is pretty good. It is exceptionally well-done design-wise - in terms of the quality level of the animation. It starts kind of moderately paced story-wise but as time goes on, it gets really engaging, with a thrilling, clever chase at the end. The film definitely left me wanting to see more of Grey's adventures!
For the first few minutes it seemed like it was going to be a quaint, "yeah, isn't that clever" thing, but when the movie pans out, it turns out to be quite effective. I'm quite happy I've seen "Sheep and Wolves" through to the end, we all had quite a lovely time.

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.

I watched "Sheep & Wolves" (aka "Volki i ovtsy. Beeezumnoe prevrashchenie") together with my son. Granted it was an English dubbed version, so we didn't know that this was a Russian animated movie.
I must admit that I had little or no expectations to this animated movie, especially since I had no knowledge of this animated movie prior to finding it by random luck. It was the movie's cover/poster that prompted me to pick it up, and my son seemed to be interested in it as well.
It turned out that the movie actually was a fun movie to watch for the both of us. It had a good story. Sure it was a very predictable storyline, but it was entertaining nonetheless.
The characters in the movie were good and very likable, which added to the overall enjoyment of the animated movie.
I will say that the CGI and the level of detail that they had managed to put into this 2016 animated movie was quite good. I was genuinely impressed with what I saw on the screen, and it looked quite nice.
The English dubbed version that we watched had some adequate voice acting, although I can't really claim to have heard the voice of anyone that I instantly recognized the voice of.
"Sheep & Wolves" is a good animated movie for the entire family, and it is quite worth the time to sit down to watch.

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?
