Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl

2024

Gromit’s concern that Wallace is becoming too dependent on his inventions proves justified, when Wallace invents a “smart” gnome that seems to develop a mind of its own. When it emerges that a vengeful figure from the past might be masterminding things, it falls to Gromit to battle sinister forces and save his master… or Wallace may never be able to invent again!

Ages 7+Source checked

Why this age? Comic peril, kidnapping, criminal plotting, chase sequences, and a frightening-looking escape create moderate tension, though the violence is stylized, injuries are not graphic, and the ending is reassuring. This is guidance, not a safety guarantee; reading level and family context may differ.
