Sheep Thrills
The Sheep Detectives
Review by Ross Anthony
A bit slow to get going, the film eventually finds its warm wooly rhythm. A sheepish "Whodunit?" It's quirky, fun, and mysterious. Despite, an actual murder, you’ll enjoy trying to solve the mystery along with the sheep.

Surprisingly a subtler somewhat serious secondary storyline satisfies. I quite enjoyed the philosophical exploration into selective memory. What are the consequences of purposely forgetting emotionally difficult events?

Hugh Jackman and Emma Thompson don’t disappoint. Vegetarians will be heartened. And finally, in a world where no one seems to care what animals have to say, the sheep are herd.
