(CCC, BB, FR, V, N) Very strong allegorical Christian, moral worldview about a group of sheep and their leader trying to find and find their shepherd, images of churches with crosses on them, and characters go out of their way to help another, but some characters have headscarves and a turban in the city set the European city; no foul language, but some passing gas jokes, burping and man is on the toilet; light violence with characters falling and being pushed but it’s very light; no sex but one light kiss; partial rear nudity character’s pants are too low; sheep characters make cocktail looking drink, but there’s no alcohol in it; no smoking or drugs; and, nothing else objectionable.

SHAUN THE SHEEP MOVIE is an animated comedy about a sheep, who wants to have the day off from doing regular farm work, but loses his shepherd when he conspires with the other sheep. SHAUN THE SHEEP MOVIE is an adorable family movie with a strong Christian, redemptive, moral worldview.

Shaun is a small, cute sheep, who feels every day is the same. When he was just a baby sheep, there was a little more fun happening, and he was closer with his master. Shaun decides to take matters into his own hooves and works with the other sheep to help his master sleep the entire day. When they put him in the RV trailer to sleep, the trailer rolls down the street all the way to the big city.

Being the leader, Shaun must figure out how to find his shepherd. He decides to get on the bus that goes to the big city. Little does he know, however, that all the other sheep on the farm get on the next bus.

When Shaun gets out of the bus, he sees an animal control worker and watches as the animal control worker catches a stray dog. Immediately, he fears that he too will be taken away. So, when he sees the entire flock get off the next bus, he knows keeping everyone safe will be a great challenge.
