In this witty, new breed of mystery, George (Hugh Jackman) is a shepherd who reads detective novels to his beloved sheep every night, assuming they can’t possibly understand. But when a mysterious incident disrupts life on the farm, the sheep realize they must become the detectives. As they follow the clues and investigate human suspects, they prove that even sheep can be brilliant crime-solvers. Prime video.
Q-tips say:YES, we did enjoy The Sheep Detectives.
Very entertaining movie and loved how the sheep talk to each other. Didn’t expect who the killer was, but it was a great movie for the whole family. There is also underlying tenderness and melancholy that elevate the film beyond the conventional family entertainment genre. The sheep aren’t a herd of interchangeable creatures. They each have names, given to them by George, and distinct personalities. And not all is sweetness and light.
