Good Family Movie!

by denise_nethery

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

Good, Funny Movie

by bryceangell649

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!

Awesome movie!

by

This had a great story line. I really enjoyed how they took the classic characters and gave them a more modern edge.

My daughter is 6 and she loved it enough to see it twice. Once on a field trip with camp and then she wanted me to take her.

There are a couple of spots that might be too scary for some kids. The boogey man is a little ominous, but in the end the children stand up to him... so it is worth making it to the end.

Heartwarmingly Great

by TheWatcher-TPG

I just seen the movie and thought it was great. I took my son with me and he actually sat through the majority of it since he tends to peek in on the people sitting in front of us. lol - This is a heartwarming film that is a joy to watch. A movie for all ages. A change from the blasts, explosions, and gunfire. While the humor in it is slightly limited, the elves and the Yetis fills that small gap. In addition to the wonder and magic mixed with the everyone's childhood characters (with a twist), overall, it was great movie. Even if I didn't have my son, I would have definitely gone to see it. If you haven't gone and seen it yet, go. You will definitely enjoy it.

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.

Great family movie

by

Follows the basic archetype of a feel-good family movie. The CG was really well done as expected. The take on your classical holiday favorites is refreshing and different. My kids and I really enjoyed this movie. You can always tell a good kids movie, when you aren't chasing them up and down the aisle because they lost interest.

Will make you believe again!

by Iniswitch

I've always believed in the 'spirit' of all of the Guardians. This movie reminds me why. Great fun, and a heartfelt story, it was enjoyed by everyone around me, including the parents.

Better than expected

by mikedc16

After seeing the trailers for this movie, I didn't really want to see it, but my daughter (7) wanted to so we went. After a slow, predictable start, the movie gets a lot better. There were some really funny parts. The boogeyman is a little scary for kids (but he's supposed to be, right?). Overall, it was worth the price of admission.

Not what I expected...

by msgallion30

Didn't expect much, but truely enjoyed the storyline and picture quality. If you can afford it, see it in 3D. Me and my babies loved this movie. They are asking to see it again. Not in my budget, but will be getting it on blueray!!!

Can't wait to see it again.

by

This movie is wonderful. I can't wait to add it in to my Christmas movies collection. Even though the movie takes place around Easter. The theme of the movie is wonderful for Christmas. The action is great for younger kids, but the theme, and beliefs the movie trys to bring acrossed is more for older children. There is also some great humor for adults as well. My favorite characters has to be Santa's yetis, and Sandman.

Great Movie

by

Took my 7 yo daughter to see this movie. We both loved it. She usually into princesses and girly topics but she said, "it had a lot of action." I agree. She asked me if we can purchase this movie when it comes out and my answer was definitely!

watch test

by

My friends & I have a test to see how good or bad a movie was by how many times you look at your watch or look around. For the most of it I was glued to the screen. But the middle tried too hard to pull at the heart strings not allowing it to come naturally. The effects was soo good that it was hard at time to know your watching a cartoon movie. The Action was very well done. As much as the Jack Story was the key to the movie I think it could have been less, & spread around the story a bite more. Over all not a bad movie, I might even pick up a copy on Blue-ray maybe, just maybe.
Action A+
Story C almost a C-
Comedy C one really funny part for the most not a funny movie or try to be one.
Effects A+

Rise of the Guardens Rises

by THOM2

Rise of the Guardians is a great family movie. The acting is amazing with a good plot. It has a heart warming lesson for children, a wonderful score for music lovers, and some nice action scenes for anyone. It's the Avengers for children.

Heartfelt Holiday Film

by Mousedancing

This the the type of movie that takes you back to your childhood and reminds you of the magic of the holidays. It has great characters and unfolds an enjoyable adventure. It leaves you with that wonderful warm fuzzy feeling that is like the wonder you felt on Christmas Eve hoping to get a glimpse of Santa before you fell asleep.

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.
