Editorial Reviews
WALLACE & GROMIT'S WORLD OF INVENTION sees world-renowed inventor Wallace and his faithful sidekick (turned camera dog) Gromit turn their hand to presenting for the very first time, hosting a six-part series from the basement of 62 West Wallaby Street. They take an enthusiastic look at some real-life cracking contraptions, from gadgets that help around the home to the mind-boggling world of space travel and much more in between. From their self-built television studio, Wallace introduces films of inventors from around the world, and unveils some of his very own creations.

I anticipated that this release would be just what it is: a variety type show with wrap-arounds starring W&G. Fun stuff to be sure, but make no mistake: this is NOT a new set of adventures with our pals.
While it's great to have them back, it is a far cry from previous releases.
By all means; if you are a huge fan (as we are) pick this up and enjoy - and maybe even learn something. Just don't bring any expectations from previous adventures.

OK, OK, we too were surprised when we got it out of the library that it was Wallace and Gromit hosting a show about inventors and their inventions, and not a series of Wallace and Gromit shorts with all their crazy inventions.
Well the fact is it is so amazing, we are buying it for gifts for young and old alike. You will be stunned by the REAL inventions out there, and the stories behind them. If you have a curious mind, or you want to inspire curiosity in a young one, then this is a movie for you.
And as a reminder it just has short cute vignettes of Wallace and Gromit, but the real stars are the REAL inventions.

I wish that I would have researched this product before pre-ordering but the Wallace and Gromit name made me think that I was getting that! It's not that they aren't in the video but this is really a kids educational series with some W&G interstitials. Very disappointing to me and I would imagine that the replay value wouldn't even be that great for almost any kid!
There was little here for me and nothing for my 16 year old son.

Fascinating Fun
Good fun as only Wallace and Grommit can dish it out. Fascinating inventions for all ages. Learn and laugh at the same time.

This is not a movie but rather a collection
Apparently I did not read the description at all. This is not a movie of my little goof-balls, but rather a collection of perhaps TV series. I am not sure. Read more

My kids love Wallace & Gromit, and I thought I was buying them a DVD of some of their episodes we had somehow missed. No.. Read more

Its Wallace & Gromit, but not so much
I enjoy Wallace & Gromit, but this DVD is so little about Wallace & Gromit, that to be called theirs, its almost misleading. Not worth the money, find it to rent somewhere.

Not what I thought
This is a DVD all about the inventions of Wallace and Gromit. Not a video for kids as we had hoped.

I should have read the fine print. I thought this was a new wallace and gromit claymation comedy. It's actually information videos. Very interesting for adults or older kids. Read more
