Kubo and the Two Strings (Laika Edition)

In feudal Japan, one-eyed, 11-year-old Kubo (voiced by Art Parkinson) had the uncanny ability to bring origami to life by playing his lute...and a shrouded past that his infirm mother kept from him. When he finds himself determinedly chased by malevolent mystic beings, he joins with sardonic simian Monkey (Charlize Theron) and bumbling samurai Beetle (Matthew McConaughey) on a quest to explain his uncanny origins. Remarkable stop-motion animated fable from Laika studios also features the voices of Ralph Fiennes, Rooney Mara, Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa, and George Takei. 101 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English. Two-disc set.
