My quick rating - 7.5/10. Brilliantly animated Irish folklore tale. The one theme I took out of it, besides the obvious reaction to fear thing was the two main characters. But a quick look found this: "The film’s LGBTQ undertones emerged as more of a happy accident. “We didn’t do any of that deeply intentionally,” Tomm says. But he emphasises, still, “we had plenty of women working with us on the movie, who spoke to how important that was.” Ross adds that “one of the most important parts of Robyn’s arc is her ‘coming out’ moment, when she decides that she has to tell her father that she’s a wolfwalker.” For Ross, that marks Robyn’s decision to “take her own choices”, to live life for herself rather than her family." So I guess I wasn't the only one who noticed that. Either way, this one is a triumph in animation similar to "Spirited Away" was. Unique and a must-see.
