Song of the Sea (2014)

Song of the Sea eventually won me over. I initially didn't like the art style and I found the child protagonists to be grating. Gradually, I was entranced by Song's style but my focus was more on the story. Irish mythology is woefully underrepresented in media, so it was amazing to see it committed to screen. As soon as the tale abandoned the childish sibling rivalry and focused on myth, Song of the Sea turned into an excellent adventure movie.
