Review of Kubo and the Two Strings (2016) by Grant F — 10 Sep 2016
"Kubo and the Two Strings" is a phenomenal stop-motion animated film that pretty much has every element of a epic fantasy movie. It's filled with such adventure, excitement, and heart and shows that Laika is one of the best animation studio working today.
The animation in this film is incredible beyond words! It truly shows how stop-motion can be one of the most creative forms of animation and every single bit of this movie is gorgeous. The characters and story really surprised me by all being incredible.
The story feels like something stripped right from a fantasy epic and the characters are so creative and fleshed out. This movie is also highly original and feels like a passion project from everyone involved in the making of this movie.
This film is what would happen a stop-motion film, an anime film, and a fantasy RPG had a very creative baby. If you enjoy animation as an art form and want to see more original ideas in Hollywood, then please go check out this film in theaters.
