Anyway, to the point: this little puppy, from the acclaimed animation studio LAIKA, is now my my ‘To Watch Quick<\/strong>‘ list. \u00a0Why?<\/p>\n

‘Cause, simply, it’s a classic coming-of-age, hero’s journey. Something I’d want my 8 -yo son to learn from, be inspired through. Now, over to Kevin Rose<\/a> for a bit more excitement as to why you should consider this for yourself and your family too:<\/p>\n

This stop-motion masterpiece is the best film I’ve seen this year <\/strong>[2016]].\u00a0<\/b>For me, it checks all the boxes: a boy finding his inner courage, loved ones lost, epic Japanese samurai\u00a0battles, and a touch of comedy. It’s pretty adult and slightly dark (think Tim Burton’s Nightmare Before Christmas), but I consider that a bonus. I watched this with my niece\u00a0(13) over Thanksgiving and she also loved it.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
