Wildwood is a handcrafted epic fantasy that transports audiences into a secret, dangerously alive world. A girl's desperate quest to save her baby brother unfolds into a spectacular, high-stakes adventure through a forbidden forest full of enchanted creatures, endearing allies, and formidable adversaries--where an entire hidden realm hangs in the balance. In an era of automation, LAIKA delivers its most ambitious and globally accessible film yet--a bold fusion of human-crafted artistry and cinematic storytelling from the makers of Coraline.

Astonishing. An ode to outsiders and weirdos, alive with colour and atmosphere and eccentricity — and told on an expansive, ambitious canvas, of a scale never before seen in stop-motion animation.

Wildwood goes even further: here it feels as if the toys have built their own secret kingdom, full of eeriness and wonder, into which mere mortals -- Prue and Curtis, but also us in the audience -- have been momentarily allowed to trespass.

If the story lacks some originality, the execution more than makes up for it. The dazzling stop motion animation breaks new ground in terms of scale, intricacy and ambition. You won’t have seen anything quite like this before.

It’s a reminder of the magic and terror of the classic fantasy stories we grew up with, recaptured on a breathtaking scale. It’s among the best animated films in recent memory.
