"Among Aardman Studios' creations, 'Shaun the Sheep' is undoubtedly one of the most beloved and successful, so it's no surprise to see a Christmas special inspired by the franchise. 'Shaun the Sheep: The Flight Before Christmas' is a funny short that shows the protagonist on a rescue mission to prevent little Timmy from becoming someone else's Christmas present. It's not an innovative production compared to what Aardman has offered before, but that's not a bad thing - the level of sophistication, detail, and refined dialogue-free physical comedy that distinguishes their best animated productions are present here, along with the Christmas spirit and a lighthearted and entertaining adventure for the family."
