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.

"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…

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…

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…

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.

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…

Why is this only in the Kids section?
It is definitely one of the best 10 films I've seen in the past 10 years, regardless of genre or target audience.
Don't take my word for it. See it.
Absolutely amazing.

Beautifully made animation with characters who look more Japanese than those in Japanese anime. The story sort of peters out at the end, but a great accomplishment nevertheless. A superb cast, including Ralph Fiennes, Matthew McConaughey,…
