Sorry, this movie sucks

i must have seen a different film!!

best movie i've ever seen.

The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

Movie Review: "Kubo And The Two Strings" (2016)Director Travis Knight coming from a long line from hand-made stop-motion animation work, utilizes great patience and a golden eye for detail in this outstanding animation movie, which deserved a greater audience.Actress Charlize Theron, given voice the main-character-guiding "Monkey", sharing great beats in Japanese anime-entertaining décor as supporting vocal guests range from supreme actors Matthew McConaughey, Rooney Mara as vicious, action beat playing characters of the "Sisters" and Ralph Fiennes as leading title-given "Kubo", vocally played by talented Art Parkinson has solid beats, carrying this beautiful animated motion picture together with Charlize Theron.Another screenplay originally-received by screenwriter Marc Haimes alongside gifted co-writers, making director Travis Knight shine as the filmmaker is about to present his first live-action feature with an "Transformers" spin-off "Bumblebee" in December 2018 for Paramount Pictures.FAZIT: Picture approved (pretty)Cinemajesty Entertainments 2018

I have always been a fan of the stories Studio Laika chooses to tell, but I have often found they fall just a little short of actually hitting all the right emotional responses in dramatic scenes. In Kubo and the Two Strings there was so much emotion I almost forgot to breath. A boy that loves to tell stories must go on to make it through his own, though the cruel dangers he faces spares no one. Absolutely beautiful (but so incredibly sad) story about family.

Every month seems to bring another big budget animated film. I just wish all of them were this beautiful and original. Yes, Kubo finds adventure and laughter, but - more importantly - his journey surprises at every turn. From the moment you first see origami dancing, you know that this movie will be unique. And the happiness you find along the way is richer because it's tinged with a grief that rings true.

Warning: this review contains many spoilers!I was so excited to watch this movie after reading the many many very positive reviews but I felt disappointed after doing that. Visually the movie is a masterpiece but I think the unoriginal story and plot holes ruined it. The story seems Dragon Quest IV, there's a boy (a little bard who plays an old guitar-like instrument) which must destroy a monster (his uncle) by collecting the pieces of a legendary armor (sword, armor and a helmet). He travels through the world with the help of his mother (incarnated inside a body of a monkey) and a weird looking scarab-human warrior (he's his dad but, trust me, it took me few seconds to figure out it was his father). So they found the magic sword stuck inside a huge living monster head (but if the sword is so powerful then why it's stuck inside a monster head and the monster doesn't die?). They found the armor under the sea (just how did it get down there?) and the helmet which was widely exposed, you won't believe this... outside Kubo's village (so the legendary helmet was in Kubo's village all the time and no one noticed that?). Meanwhile Kubo's mom and dad die while protecting him from the two evil sisters and Kubo faces his evil uncle in the final battle. In the end Kubo defeats his uncle by playing his guitar with a string of his mom hair, a string of his hair and the string of his father's bow. So the journey in search of the legendary artifacts was...completely pointless (he could play the guitar with the strings way before and his mom and dad would be still alive). Kubo's uncle turns into a nice guy (I don't know how) and the movie ends. Final score 7/10.Kubo and the two string is a good movie. It has stunning visuals, great graphics, memorable characters and good dialogues but it would be a true masterpiece if wasn't for its unoriginal story and plot holes. Overall the movie is a bit overrated but I can recommend it to everyone.
