You know in those Claymation movies where the characters have skinny arms and legs, but they have big belly's, um... something is not right about that.

The story is about a young orphan, raised by subterranean trash collectors, must find the hero inside when an evil exterminator threatens his family.

The beginning of this movie started a bit slow and I wasn't feeling it, but as the film went a long it became better. The voice acting in the film was well done. The villain in the film to me had a really stupid plan that didn't make scenes at all, and he was a cliche messed up villain with nothing really new to him, but Ben Kingsley did a good job voicing him. The jokes worked at times and sometimes they don't. But overall the Boxtrolls is a solid family movie with so dark scenes and such messed parts that might scary kids a little.
