The Sheep Detectives

CriticsCritics: 84
AudienceAudience: 7.6

A shepherd reads detective stories to his flock each night, never suspecting they understand. When a mysterious incident shakes up life on the farm, the sheep draw on what they have learned to investigate clues and human suspects, taking on an unusual case that tests their wits and their place in the human world.

My take

You’ll enjoy this if you like gentle humor, an offbeat mystery, and a warm family story about unlikely sleuths; Not for you if you prefer fast-paced plots or consistently sharp comedy.
