I saw this earlier today (10/19/05) and I enjoyed it very much. It's the first Wallace & Gromit that I've ever seen, but I have heard of them. Also, I've seen Chicken Run (and own it on dvd).
So what else is there to see? They were a tv show at one point?

Saw this a few hours ago and LOVED it. I made a vow many years ago - after a particularly noisy matinee screening of Bambi - never to go to another matinee of a "kids' film," but I really wanted to see this movie. Sure, there were crying and loud kids/babies in the audience, but it was worth it.
Hutch is now my second favorite W&G character (behind the penguin, of course). He cracked me up.
And I know it's juvenille and obvious, but the "may contain nuts" sticker on the box that Wallace was wearing really made me laugh.

Thought this was very good. Lots of little things going on in the background that really make the film. I particularly liked Peter Kay (British comedian) as the policeman - he delivered the funniest line in the film for me, which was simply:
Liked the parallels with King Kong - Nick Park clearly doing a much better job of the remake than Peter Jackson!
Where I thought it was lacking something was in the plot. It was decent enough, but it just didn't draw me in enough to really be rooting for anyone. I didn't care what would happen, I was just watching for the gags.
B+
