Wallace (Peter Sallis) and Gromit have run out of cheese and this provides an excellent excuse for the animated duo to take their holiday on the moon, where, as everyone knows, there is ample cheese.
Frankly, I never got the charm or appeal of the Wallace and Gromit animations, and do not really care or much of anything Aardman has done. It seems to me not much better than the old Gumby cartoons, and the humor largely escapes me.
That being said, this is my favorite Wallace and Gromit. It is simple, effective, and has a nice story. We get a good sense of how brilliant (yet lacking in common sense) that Wallace is, and the moon robot is a good character in himself. What is his back story? Who cares!
