Day 74 - Box Trolls (American)

The Boxtrolls poster.jpg
 
"A young orphaned boy raised by underground cave-dwelling trash collectors tries to save his friends from an evil exterminator. Based on the children's novel 'Here Be Monsters' by Alan Snow."
 
A cute 3D animation film that has a lot of good moments but has room for improvement me. The concept was very well thought out, you can see the wonderful attention to detail in the film. The story was something different which I loved, all of the box trolls were cool. The characters were all interesting, they didn't make them seem fake to be honest. Eggs was a good main character, honestly I felt like this is something that Tim Burton would do but sadly he's not a part of this movie.
It features a wonderful voice cast with Ben Kingsley, Nick Frost, Tracy Morgan, Dee Bradley Barker, Steve Blum, Elle Fanning and much more. I also love the artistic style of the design of the world, it was pretty fun to see. This is a great movie to watch if you love stop motion or have kids.
 
3.5/5
