Entertainment Reviews:
A plucky little studio, both geographically and spiritually removed from the Hollywood sausage factory, has beat the majors at their own game, and they've done it for a fraction of the cost.

[A] marvel -- a visually stunning, richly imagined oasis in a sea of candy-colored safety, and one of the first truly original movies of the year so far. -- Grade: A-
Entertainment Weekly
4 stars out of 4 -- [Y]ou find yourself staring at the onscreen sound and fury in awe. The work here is fluid and near-flawless -- which is as an apt description for the entire film as any.
Rolling Stone
3.5 stars out of 4 -- One of the most impressive elements of KUBO AND THE TWO STRINGS -- besides its dazzling stop-motion animation, its powerful performances and its transporting score -- is the amount of credit it gives its audience, particularly its younger viewers.
RogerEbert.com
Rating: 9/10 --
Beyond its rich thematic subtext (which is, I admit, occasionally a bit heavy-handed), Kubo and the Two Strings borrows familiar motifs to create an entirely new mythology - one that's worthy of the word epic.

Product Description:
After accidentally summoning an ancient spirit, a young Japanese boy named Kubo (voiced by Art Parkinson) is separated from his mother and embarks on a journey to discover the truth about his missing father. Along the way, he befriends the kindhearted Monkey (Charlize Theron) and the clumsy Beetle (Matthew McConaughey) as he fends off the vengeful Moon King (Ralph Fiennes) and two evil twin sisters (Rooney Mara) with his shamisen, a magical stringed instrument. This stop-motion-animated adventure from Laika was directed by Travis Knight.
