In which the Mister and the Monsters join me in reviewing WOLFWALKERS (2020), currently streaming on Apple TV. Directed by Tomm Moore and Ross Stewart, from a script by Will Collins, story credit to Tomm Moore, Ross Stewart and Jericca Cleland (who's also listed as a consultant), the story is set in Ireland in 1650 and follows Robin and her father, who've left England by order of the Lord Protector to the Irish country to deal with a den of wolves. Robin soon discoers their secret and is pulled into the story and struggle of the wolves and the Wolfwalkers who are a link between the humand and wolf world through magic. Robin makes a true friend that blossoms into a family. Superb storytelling with lovely and lush animation makes this a treat for all the senses. The film is rated PG and really can be seen by anyone from 2 to 92. The run time is 1 hour and 43 minutes but the pacing doesn't reflect the long run time. Please note there are SPOILERS in this review.
