This is easily one of the best movies I have seen so far this year. When you hear the name The Sheep Detectives you might think a younger audience — childish, which it is. But, in terms of a cinematic experience, this is the kind of movie that is perfect for the family.
It's the kind of film that people who love the Paddington franchise will enjoy.
