    Good Family Movie!

    We really enjoyed the movie. Our girls are 6 and 8, but the adult humor was entertaining too!

    Great Story

    So with out giving anything away about the story, if the book is better then the book then you still should see this movie. It is a great tale of how our children's tales of Easter Bunny, Tooth Fairy, Sand Man, and Santa are stronger then anything in this world. But what is awesome is the addition of the Guardians Jack Frost.

    This Movie made me feel like a kid again. I loved every bit of it. My daughter who was skeptical at first love it too.

    RIse of the Guardians

    by

    This movie was absolutely terrific. It was great for children and was enjoyable for parents. To be honest I think I enjoyed it just as much as my 4 and 6 year olds. Its a great family film.

    Only OK no classic here

    by

    Usually my 9 year old son is giddy after a movie replaying scenes on the way home, not this one. He has been very excited about seeing this movie for a few weeks now and was in a happy mood to be there. After twenty minutes in I looked over to see him with his chin resting in his hands visibly bored. I was in the same camp with him. A night at the movies for a family of four is an investment, this one had little return.

    Good, Funny Movie

    Rise of the Guardians has an interesting and original plot. The characters have awesome personality and there is plenty of humor contained in the movie. Not sure about how I feel with portraying the Santa as a tough guy with tattoos but a softy on the inside. Still a great movie!

    Great Holiday Movie

    by

    I took my 5 year old nephew to see it last night. We both laughed silly. I loved the fact that Jack Frost was made immortal after giving up his life for his sister. Liked the fact that Santa still had his Russian accent.

    Rise of Guardians - Uplifting and Positive

    Went with our 10-year old - and the whole family enjoyed it from the first to the last scene. Uplifting and positive at this time when even animated movies are full of senseless violence, this movie hits all the right spots. For Jack Frost, who starts as a careless and a loner, once he realises his real nature, it is simply explosion of positiveness...
    Definitely Must GO!
    Good animation, not-so-ordinary characters (Santa as a Kozak?, Big-Foots?, Australian "bunny"), good story, all together make this movie may stay for a long time as a holiday and faity-tale classic... with a catch.

    It was just okay.

    So I saw this movie with my friend who is 9 like me, and three 6 year olds'.
    This is the kind of movie once you leave the theater then you forget everything that happened during the movie.
    I like it but Wreck-It Ralph was 100x better!
    If you are looking for a movie to see with you're child, pick Wreck-It Ralph.

    Rise of the Guardians

    All 3 grandsons were transfixed from the very beginning of this movie; (2 ten-year olds and a 6 yr). Although the basic concept may have been lost on the 6 year old, he enjoyed the outrageously beautiful artwork and fast action. Theatre was packed, volume was LOUD, but nobody left or cried! We went on opening day - earliest showtime. The children in your life will love this movie - I will buy it when it's available!

    A true holiday movie

    I really like the film! I loved how all the characters were so into their own individual character. Also, they explained how important the holiday was not just to them but, to the children all around and what the meaning brings. It's perfect for any age. It was funny, had action, and much sentiment.

    Delightful!

    by

    This is a fun story with a good background, the characters are wonderful with written with depth so you understand the background of not only the characters but the difficulty they are in.

    Heart warming, I recommend it.

    Rise of the Guardians

    Action-packed, Pee Wee! A great show for the lads, that keeps moving and modernizes Father Christmas and the rest, to remind us why they're so cool.
