Anyway here you go, this movie has been out since 2004, and it is not that easy to find; I think amazon still has it. This is one of the most incredible things I have ever seen – it is all puppet work. But after a while, you forget that is what you are watching, the plot is that good and very well done.

I did want to tell you, this has a large war going on between two houses; so there is some violent images. As you can see from the trailer. So you can use your judgement on letting the kids see it or not. Really, if they have seen the Star Wars films, then nothing to worry about here.

Darcy had found a excellent on line review of the movie Strings, thought we would pass it along as well. (They should pay me for all this promoting, lol.)
