Kubo and the two strings

4 stars

25 Aug 2019

On Friday 23rd of August 2019 I watched a very strange by magical film it was called Kubo and the two strings. The Movie is about young boy called Kubo who lives with his mum and he has a magical powers he can tell stories with paper by using a magical guitar his life was perfect until he accidentally summons a vengeful spirit from the past. Now on the run, Kubo joins forces with Monkey and Beetle to unlock a secret legacy. Armed with a magical instrument, Kubo must battle the Moon King who is his grandfather and other gods like his mother's Sisters and monsters like a giant skeleton who holds the unbreakable sword that he must use in order to save his family and solve the mystery of his fallen father, the greatest samurai warrior the world has ever known his quest is to find his father's armor because that is the only thing that can keep him safe from his grandfather because his grandfather is looking for him to get him to join him and he wants Kubo's other eye because he took Kubo's eye when he was a baby and his mum barely got away with her magic but his dad was left behind to fright to his death with his army trying to protect his family but they lost the battle instead and their lives. My favourite character would Kubo's monkey/his mother in a another form because no matter what the problem they were in she always made sure Kubo was safe from harms way but most of all keep him safe from his aunties who are trying to capture him and take him to his grandfather.
