Nominated for Best Animated Feature 
Faithful companion Gromit feels the sting of rejection when Wallace (Ben Whitehead) invents a "helpful" robot gardener called Norbot (Reece Shearsmith) and seems to prefer its company. But the pair's old nemesis, Feathers McGraw, is plotting revenge from his prison cell/enclosure and hacking Norbot is the first step. Gromit must stop the rogue AI garden gnomes from destroying Wallace's good name and reputation and framing him for theft before Wallace is locked away.
At this point, the "turn evil" button/setting on robots is old hat but still funny. I would have liked more focus on Feathers McGraw and less on the cops but I understand you need some characters to talk in your movie.
If you are already a W&G fan, congrats on another successful entry. If you're not, this won't make you one. Head on back to Memoir of a Snail, fellow degenerate. It's currently streaming on Netflix.
