#1270 Missing Link (2019)

Beitrag von Kasi Mir »



"Missing Link" is the fifth movie made by stop-motion animation specialists Laika after "Coraline", "ParaNorman" "The Boxtrolls", and of course "Kubo and the Two Strings" (Sneak #1136). The company was founded by Nike owner Phil Knight and his son Travis (director of #1248 "Bumblebee") , who started as a lead animator there, but has been running the company since 2015 and directed "Kubo" as well. This film, however, was directed by the other central figure at Laika, Chris Butler, wo wrote and co-directed "ParaNorman" and co-wrote "Kubo". "Missing Link" was his project through and through, as he wrote and directed the film alone.

And that film looks like this:


How did you like "Missing Link"? Did you enjoy the adventures of Sir Lionel Frost and his sasquatch friend? How did you like the stop-motion animation, the voice work by leads Hugh Jackman, Zack Galifianakis and Zoe Saldana, plus Timothy Olyphant, Stephen Fry, Emma Thompson and many more in supporting roles? What about the story of the film which spans three continents? Please tell us what you thought of "Missing Link" in a reply to this post - you don't have to send them to any adventurer's society. :-)

ein harmloser*, unterhaltsamer Film. Technisch mal wieder sehr interessant gemacht. Gut anzuschauen, wenn man story-mäßig keine großen Überraschungen benötigt.
Spoiler:
*abgesehen davon, dass die "Bösewichter" am Ende dann doch einfach mal draufgehen. Das hätte man auch etwas familienfreundlicher lösen können. So stellt sich mir die Frage der Zielgruppe.

Filme von LAIKA machen immer Spass, so auch dieserr hier. Auch wenn die Story eher durchschnittlich war, so war die Umsetzung einfach wunderschön. Ab dem ersten Bild schon besser als die Obergurke der Vorwoche :mrgreen: Ich gebe eine 1!
