It's a half assed western style remake which takes everything from the east without any respect.
Initially I had high hopes, but this movie betrays its origins on such a deep level. If you're not a real fan of anime or Asian movies (esp. Japan) you will not be disappointed, as Kubo takes you on a visually stunning ride with two mildly interesting characters. If you are a real fan, you will know what I'm talking about.
Depth or character development don't even come close to what this movie could be. This is just a superficial, slow paced where it should be fast, fast where it should be slow, abruptly-ended and the worst ending battle in modern history.
6/10
