The Sheep Detectives
Talking Sheep, Rams, & Lambs… oh my!
Are you an animal lover? Do you like solving crime mysteries? Then, maybe you’ll get a kick out of this PG-rated film.
A shepherd, George (Hugh Jackman), reads murder mysteries to his flock of sheep every night. Then one morning, he is found dead outside of his trailer. His flock of sheep using their knowledge of this genre, set out to uncover the murderer & solve the case. This is a murder mystery with a twist. The sheep are CGI-ed & talking in this live-action mystery thriller comedy. The sheep have great personalities giving this a delightful “Murder Sheep Wrote” vibe to this “Wool Dunit?” mystery. Of course, we have a good cast of suspects & a bumbling cop leading the investigation. Are smarter than the sheep & can solve the crime before the big reveal?
Alien gives it 3 “they call stupid humans… sheep” stars out of 4.
