What people are saying
Updated nightlyPeople love this. It’s a total crowd-pleaser about a shepherd, Hugh Jackman’s George Hardy, reading detective novels to his oblivious flock until they actually have to solve a crime. The big hook is the sheep themselves, their detective antics are hilarious and surprisingly clever, with the voices of Bryan Cranston’s Sebastian and Chris O’Dowd’s Mopple getting particular love. Jackman is reliably charming, though some of the human supporting cast, like Nicholas Galitzine’s Elliot, don’t land as well. The story is fun and fresh, even if the visuals aren't groundbreaking.
