Fantastic film and excellent performances . Amazing story of family, courage, facing your fears and the power of love. Perfect for the whole family. Would watch again. The cinematography/animation is incredible.

Pure schmaltz. The animation is good, particularly the facial expressions. But the plot is formulaic and the sound track unexceptional.

A visual masterpiece. The animation is truly astonishing and some of the most ambitious stop-motion I've ever seen.

Animation great! Story very fairy tale, with attitudes and violence. Commentary extremely interesting on process.

"Kubo and the Two Strings" is an excellent picture, based in stop motion animation and the longest film of this type to date. The story is rich in Buddhist contexts highlighting a belief in a Pure Land and an acknowledgment that although…

It’s a semi-horror animation. Too much spirit and magic, too much violence. I am not quite liking the plot which I think slow pace at times and twisted such as the enmity between sisters, little boy and old grandpa killing each other…

The longest stop-motion animated feature film thus far (and with hundreds of thousands of frames and an 18-foot animatronic Skeleton Demon to boot certainly the most ambitious), Travis Knight’s dark and cerebral fairytale is a sure win for…

SEXUAL CONTENT None. VIOLENT CONTENT From this film's opening moments, it's clear that a deadly and powerful danger lurks nearby, always watching and awaiting its chance. We see those evil forces unleashed in sometimes deadly (though…

Possibly a little scary for kids, but this is one of the most beautifully thought-out and executed movies I've ever seen, & the core values of united family & more than that, the stunning value on forgiveness is quite moving. I love this…

More Pixar than Pixar. The themes of memory dominate this clever and visually stunning movie.

There were times when this movie was just so fun, so creative but then it would slow down to a slug's pace. It was up and down, up and down. Great casting though and terrific animation. Beautiful story.

This is a gorgeous and unique film. Way better than Zootopia and Moana by FAR! I would love loved to see this win for best animated feature film. Kubo is just such a charming and intelligent character! It's one of those movies where you…

'Kubo and the Two Strings' is a top tier animation film that deserved more praise and attention than what it initially got. This movie is hands down Laikas best projects to date with its smooth transitions, vibrant colour schemes and most…

This is a beautifully-animated film about the meaning of family. Lots of funny moments for littler ones and jokes for grownups, plus heartbreaking and magical moments everyone will understand.

Absolutely gorgeous animation and atmospheric music combine in this heart-rending and heart-warming tale of a boy with a truly magical talent for music and origami, who sets off on a quest that will bring him face to face with love, loss,…

I love how this is partially about the power of storytelling. It's also about family—both good and bad—and courage and terror and everything in between, but it's in large part about the power of a story to shape reality.

Spectacular animation and story-telling. Those with an analytical mindset should pay close attention to the occurrence of simple geometric shapes and numbers. Some scenes may be scary for small children but you will likely want to watch…

Way better than Moana and Zootopia. This movie should have won the oscar for best animated feature.
