The first time around, since I kept hearing some really good things about this movie, I had some really high expectations and it did turn out to be Laika’s most ambitious and most gorgeous movie so far.

My Top 10 Favourite Movies of 2016 (10 movies items)"This latest animated film from Laika is about a young boy named Kubo who must locate a magical suit of armour to defeat a vengeful spirit from his past. I really liked Coraline and ParaNorman, but this is, hands down, my favourite Laika movie so far. The stop-motion animation is absolutely superb; if there was any CG involved, the stop-motion is so flawless that I can't tell where one ends and the other begins. The overall atmosphere this movie creates is just phenomenal: like a classic fairytal"
