The Best: The Spine of Night
Imagine if the drama, excitement, emotion, and violence of eight seasons of Game of Thrones was animated and stuffed together into a 90-minute movie. That’s basically the aspiration of The Spine of Night, a sumptuous, entertaining, shocking piece of fantasy animation that spans generations and is filled with heroes, villains, epic battles, and ancient prophecy. The propulsive, dense story is told with loads of famous voices (Lucy Lawless, Richard E. Grant, Patton Oswalt) and by the end, it ends up being one of those rare films that pushes a medium to new heights.
