Kubo and the Two Strings

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|}. ~ Daniel Gelb
