Early Man review

Everyone knows of Wallace & Gromit. Fewer know of Chicken Run, but the many that do insist on its significance to their childhoods (and how much it scared them). Now, in his first feature since 2005's The Curse Of The Were-Rabbit, Aardman director Nick Park has returned to telling stories out of plasticine with Early Man - set in a period of ancient transition between the Stone and Bronze Ages.

When the first reviews came out for Early Man, the consensus among some critics was clear: Aardman have finally made a Brexit movie. A caveman comedy from Nick Park, the creator of the quintessentially British characters Wallace and Gromit, this latest stop-motion animation feels ripe for interpretation.
