The alternate account of the creation of the Book of Kells...
I love a film that is visually stunning, at times stunning cinematics and visuals can carry a film for me. The Secret of Kells is a prime example of a film with a pretty good story that gets a lot of help from the film's stunning visuals. The Secret of Kells is beautifully animated, as it should be, as the film itself is about beautiful illustration. The film doesn't have the most riviting story, but its good enough. Any slack from the story and plot is very quickly picked up by the outstanding animation and charm of the movie.
Don't get me wrong, the story isn't bad, but if story is your primary concern, they are another animated films to turn to. The Secret of Kells had the similar feel of a Studio Ghibli film in my opinion.
Secret of Kells has a nice fairy tale feel to the film, which I was was flushed out a little bit more. I definitely think Aisling should've been utilized more as her parts of the movie were really awesome and great to watch, definitely the most captivating parts of the film.
Overall its a pretty good film that is made great by beautiful illustration.
Rating:6.75/10
