I think that any film review about "The Legend of Magic Strings" should be inseparable from stop-motion animation, and when it comes to stop-motion animation, we have to mention LAIKA studio. Since we talk about LAIKA studio, we must mention the studio naturally. The super rich second-generation boss Travis Knight. I still remember the rumor that was widely circulated on Weibo before, "If you don't work hard, you can only go back and inherit the 160 billion family business." It was this video that made "Legend of Magic Strings" from my viewing options become a must-have.

It is a Hollywood where Disney, DreamWorks, and Industrial Light and Magic are rampant. LAIKA is definitely a wonderful flower. In addition to being stubborn and obsessed with stop-motion animation, it is super rich, super attractive, and super personality. I believe that everyone who has entered this company will definitely Department of GEEK. As the most primitive animation production method, stop-motion animation has almost been completely replaced by hand-painted animation. However, just like people still stubbornly insist on wet plate photography, this laborious and time-consuming traditional method can be produced. The artistic effect that makes small fans obsessed and amazed is not to say that those who work hard for their dreams are worthy of recognition, but I also sincerely admire this group of dream chasers with superb craftsmanship.

As a Western studio, the story told by LAIKA presents elements of Eastern culture everywhere. From the scene to the character design, as well as the very delicate origami craftsmanship, the audience feels like they are in a moving ukiyo-e. A Japanese boy puts on the ancient samurai armor to defeat the evil spirits in the samurai castle. It is a story full of oriental flavor. The perfect combination of Eastern and Western cultures is really amazing.

Erase love and cowardice, and pursue the so-called "strongest" at all costs. This itself is a recurring theme in Japanese manga, and it is also the root cause of Kubo's troubles. When Kubo was the cemetery of his ancestors, he plucked out a hair and put it on the piano together with his mother's hair and his father's bowstring. The broken family was finally reunited on the string. Accompanied by the soundtrack, Kubo's heavy The next scene of plucking the strings made the picture ignite, and the ever-bright lamp of mourning for the ancestors turned into a shield and a giant wave, and Kubo defeated the enemy together. Love is not simply an objective existence that we can see, but is deeply buried in everyone's memory. Vision can be taken away, and life will end, but memories cannot be erased, thoughts cannot be bound, love is small, but its power is beyond everything.

When Kubo ate with monkeys and beetles on the lake, Kubo was very happy. It was the first time that Kubo ate with so many people, and I was very touched. The whole story is actually about how Kubo became a little bit from gain and loss in his adventure. Understand love. If you criticize the movie's empty audience, you probably haven't felt the story with your heart.

Very exciting movie, although it is overlooked, it is definitely not to be missed! Recommended, consider collecting.
