The Boxtrolls

With the postponement of Pixar's The Good Dinosaur it has been a poor summer for Kids Movies, with little of quality on offer. It is, perhaps, a shame therefore that The Boxtrolls was not released a month earlier, as I think it could have done well in the Summer Holidays.

It tells the story of Boxtrolls, inventive and misunderstood creatures that live in cardboard boxes and survive by using things Humans throw away. As family movies go, this is a decent example of good storytelling, with lots of moral lessons embedded within it.

Whilst maybe not being the best animated feature film, it is certainly better than anything else released this summer, and should keep the kids entertained 7/10
