Why this pick
Like Missing Link, it pairs exquisitely tactile stop-motion craft with a globe-spanning adventure, eccentric companions, and a warm-hearted hero’s journey that balances comedy, danger, and wonder.
Why this pick
Its brisk, old-fashioned expedition storytelling, clue-chasing momentum, expressive comic sidekicks, and lavishly imagined far-flung locales closely fit Missing Link’s buoyant adventure sensibility.
Why this pick
This has the same affection for elaborate handmade animation, ridiculous period adventure, enthusiastic misfits, and jokes that remain light while the journey feels genuinely grand.
Why this pick
For Missing Link’s mix of mythical creatures and adventurous companionship, this delivers sweeping exploration, vibrant creature design, humorous action, and a warm challenge to the stories people tell about outsiders.
