"It's both beautiful and sad, with roots in Irish lore and absolutely beautiful score." - Amy A.

I have seen this movie many times and I still find new lovely details. It is a favorite for my entire family. It is a beautiful story, beautiful animation, and beautiful soundtrack.

A beautiful movie with an equally beautiful soundtrack. It delves into Irish mythology, a strain that is often overlooked these days, in a way that is accessible and entertaining. I cannot recommend it highly enough.

This is just fantastically beautiful. The story is simple, but that just allows you to pay more attention to the gorgeous animation.

The boy is very mean to his little sister. It might give older siblings viewing this movie ideas to be similarly cruel to their younger ones.

Drawing on Irish folktales/mythology, this is one of the most beautiful animated films I've ever seen. It also uses traditional animation, which is refreshing in this digital age. It has something in common with Studio Ghibli films in that…

My four year old loves this movie, and I love it because it's a story without the typical villain or violence (or violence disguised as humor, like in a lot of Disney movies). The one character that is the "villain" changes later in the…

Touching fantasy story has great characters throughout and a beautiful climax. Only challenged in this way by Patrick McHale's Cartoon Network miniseries, "Over the Garden Wall" (2014).

A truly exceptional work of art in an age of Pixar/dreamworks wannabes.

This movie is absolutely beautiful with moving scenery, picture, and a hauntingly beautiful score. It is a touching story of loss and how the love found between family helps to heal if you open yourself to it. The Irish mythology is…

Beautiful animation with a featured song that stuck in my head for days....sung beautifully by the voice of Saoirse. Loved the imaginative way Saoirse was transformed from selkie and back to human....magical. Voice of Ben was just…

Characters like Lug, Spud, & Mossy, the Great Seanchaí, Macha the Owl Witch, Saoirse, who needs her selkie coat to sing & save the fairy world, and her big brother Ben & his brave and loyal dog, Chu, are reminiscent of the Wizard of Oz.…

This beautiful, magical, moving film has a style all its own. I recommend it for fans of Celtic mythology, fantasy, and/or animation.

The animation and music are the only reason I would recommend seeing this movie. This movie will make you cry. Does not sugar coat the real emotional hurt a family goes through once a family member is gone

Song of the Sea is worth seeing at least once for the animation alone. Visually, it is stunning. I liked the musical score, too. There were parts of the story I liked a lot, but overall I felt the story was missing something or I missed…

I thought this movie was great. A little sad for kids but I watched it alone. Music was good and characters are fun.
