Plot
In Stratford-Upon-Avon, birthplace of William Shakespeare, Miss Capulet and Mr. Montague feud over whose garden is the better. Garden gnomes that decorate each neighbor's flower beds continue the rivalry when the humans aren't looking, and gnomes from the Red Gardens don't get along with those of the Blue Gardens. Then Gnomeo, a Blue, and Juliet, a Red, fall in love, leaving many obstacles to overcome.

Why It Can't be Shattered

 * 1) Really solid animation from then named Starz in the time (before being named Arc Productions from 2011-2016, and Jam Filled Toronto from 2016-onwards) and realistic details and textures.
 * 2) The titular leads are really likable and relatable.
 * 3) Fun to point at Easter eggs like a T-shirt showing Kermit the Frog.
 * 4) Talented voice acting from Emily Bunt, James McAvoy, Jason Statham, Maggie Smith, Jim Cummings, Ozzy Osbourne, etc.
 * 5) Really funny cameos from Stephan Merchant and Patrick Stewart.
 * 6) Heartwarming moments with Gnomeo and Juliet themselves.
 * 7) The humor is silly, humourous, and quite clever at the same time.
 * 8) It isn't afraid to explain a sympathetic and sad story on why Mr. Capulet and Ms. Montague divorced after an argument and moved away from each other as explained by Featherstone, even how much we see that he missed his loved one so much.
 * 9) Featured the greatest choices of songs by British music star, Elton John.
 * 10) Featherstone  is a really solid comic relief.
 * 11) William Shakespeare's statue looks really nice and accurate enough to the original statue that can be found in the real life side of Great Britain.
 * 12) Touchstone proves they still have the magic that was once used in Splash and Who Framed Roger Rabbit.
 * 13) It is a clever parody of one of Shakespeare' iconic stories Romeo and Juliet with a little Toy Story vibe added to it.
 * 14) The British vibe in the film itself is flawless.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) Overused pop-culture references despite the references in the film being decent.
 * 2) Some unfunny jokes, bad attempts at adult humor and unnecessary toilet humor.
 * 3) The scene where Juliet commits suicide might be really much for a kids' film.
