Rise of the Guardians (2012)


I watched Rise of the Guardians for all the kids out there or adults who also love cartoon movies.  It stars the voices of Chris Pine (Star Trek), Alec Baldwin (30 Rock), Jude Law (Sherlock Holmes), Isla Fisher (Wedding Crashers), and Hugh Jackman (Wolverine).  This movie is a new take on classic characters Santa, The Easter Bunny, Sandman, The Tooth Fairy, and Jack Frost.  When the Boogeyman comes back from a deep sleep he threatens the dreams of every child in the world.  So the Guardians of children (Santa, The Easter Bunny, etc.) have to step up to fight back and prevent evil from winning.  It's a basic good vs. evil with a couple cool twists on characters.  Kids would love this movie it shows imagination and belief that keeps these characters alive for years to come.  As an adult I also enjoyed it just as much.  This movie is available to rent or buy on March 12th.  If you have kids and they haven't seen this yet, it's definitely worth checking out with the entire family.

I give this movie 4 stars for the original story and my soft spot for animation movies.
