Based on the quirky but bestselling mystery novel, The Sheep Detectives is a heartfelt family whodunnit that blends humour, mystery and genuine emotion into one of the year’s biggest surprises.

In this review, Darryl shares why The Sheep Detectives reminded him of Babe, how the film balances laughs with some unexpectedly touching moments, and why the clever mystery kept him guessing right through to the final reveal.
