Movie Review: KUBO AND THE TWO STRINGS
Kubo (Art Parkinson), a young, one-eyed boy living in a small village in
a fairy-tale-like Asian land, embarks on a journey with Monkey
(Charlize Theron) and Beetle (Matthew McConaughey) to find an ancient
sword, helmet and armor in order to defeat his aunts and grandfather
who have become cold evil spirits, seeking Kubo's second eye and who Kubo's mother turned against in the past.
Having in the past not thoroughly enjoyed Laika's past efforts like ParaNorman and The Boxtrolls (for story reasons), Kubo and the Two Strings comes in as a definite improvement on them, with a far more touching narrative which adds a brilliant tribute to Asian cinema, even though some of the story problems I had in the past still emerge from this animated beauty.

Movie Review: THE HUNTSMAN: WINTER'S WAR
A really uninspiring piece of storytelling, that wastes a lot of potential goods in a really messy fantasy picture that never manages to find a voice or a tonal coherence. Looking at the cast involved you cannot keep yourself from calling this a disappointment, even if its predecessor didn’t really make us wish for this, nor was it a quality film.
