Fun for all ages - Great DVD or Blu ray buy!

by AlisaPerry

This was a great movie. My 7 year old loved it. The animation was clear. The characters and colors were beautiful on the screen. My child's favorite character was Jack Frost. But, the Sandman was great. Although Sandman doesn't speak, the facial expressions tell it all. Excellent movie!!!!

SUCH a sweet movie!

by jooley_ann

I got goosebumps NUMEROUS times watching this movie. It is SO sweet, and all of the Guardian characters are fully realized and robust. Chris Pine is absolutely wonderful as Jack, and Alec Baldwin is hilarious as Santa. Honestly, I give this movie 5 of 5 stars, and highly recommend it!

Best holiday movie from Dreamworks!

by mattfan12059

Rise of The Guardians was a great movie! It had tons of humor, action, heart and adventure! I also loved the elves! They acted a lot like the minions in Despicable Me. Overall, this movie will get you to believe in the holiday spirit!

Pleasantly surprised

by luvtoshop

An entertaining movie for kids and adults, without all the typical, unnecessary adult humor or conversation that you see with other "kid" movies. Great for the family to see.
Kept me interested- I find myself getting rather bored at most kids movies, but not this one. Animation was great. Was action packed, without giving you a headache.
Liked the story too. Positive and fun without being corny. My husband and I both liked it as well as our 7 and 8 year olds.
Not sure a child under the age of 5 would necessarily love it. There is a creepier character in the movie that might frighten younger kids, but my kids were fine with it.

Rise of the Guardians

Awesome movie! I took my 8 year old granddaughter to see it. Actually, She was the one who took me. She wanted to see it. I'm so glad I took her. We both enjoyed this movie. You don't have to see it with a child to enjoy it. I recommend ths movie for adults too.

Not so much for little kids...

by Merare

I loved it. I laughed and adored Santa and his tattoos. Chris Pine as Jack Frost was witty and funny as always. I would see this again!

Stay during the credits

This was an enjoyable movie that had a decent number of emotional moments to it, be it happy or sad or even a little sappy. You feel for the heroes as well as the villain, and it is a rather unexpected ride throughout.

Hugh Jackman as the Easter Bunny was brilliant.

Rise of The Guardians on Christmas Eve

by likes the popcorn

Great Movie for adults and kids. As a single person on Christmas Eve it was great to hear the children laughing at parts of the movie, they seemed totally engaged and offered quite a bit of applause at the end.
For myself, Dreamworks may actually have matured beyond putting endless Hollywood in jokes in the movie ( think Shrek ). The 3D/HD animation was outstanding and the characterization was good. That each of the spirits had strengths and weaknesses was pleasantly portrayed. The underlying theme of preserving the wonder and joys of childhood as expressed in the characters sentiments was very nicely drawn over the length of the movie. Jack Frost's coming of age, so to speak, as a guardian was one of the nicest character revelations that I've seen in awhile. Also the little visual sidebar scenes of the small elves being themselves was very funny.

Go and Enjoy and listen to the kids laughter, it's worth the price of admission.

GO GO GO

by WatchItandReviewIt

Forget what the critique's opinion is, because usually all animated movies are rated low unless it's Pixar or Disney. This movie is original and brilliant and it would be absolutely crazy not to go while it's in IMAX or 3D. Go see it while you still can!

Go see this film. It will awaken the child in you. Be sure to sit in the house with a lot of kids.
Some darker elements might be too much for very young kids, so mommies and daddies don?t bring the toddlers. 5 & up.

The magic is so special. and you find yourself clapping and wanting to cheer out loud.

Great story, perfect time to come out, go see for yourself. Hope is something we create, and our fears can make them vanish.

Rise of The Guardians

by journeylandjudy2

Excellent job by Dreamworks. Great plot and the story line moved quickly. This was the first time in a theater for my 4 year old and she along with her 8 year old brother loved it and are still talking about it today.
