The Curse of the Were-Rabbit was thoroughly enjoyable, but it was certainly a bit long.
I am a huge fan the 3 original Wallace and Gromit animated shorts (A Grand Day Out, A Close Shave, and The Wrong Trousers) as well as Nick Park's first feature length film, Chicken Run. Fans like myself are sure to love this movie.
However, I did think that there was a lot of filler in it to stretch it out to an hour and a half, so it could be billed as a feature film. The same story could probably have been done as a 30 minute short but then they would have been limited to alternative distribution methods.
This movie will be in my DVD collection, but my recommendation for non-Nick Park fans is to wait and rent it.
