    Rise of the Guardians

    Was a great take on some old tales. This is one that will keep the kids and the adults entertained. Fun and light most of the time, but some scenes will be frightening to small children. Would say 7 and over for best results of this movie.

    Great Movie

    by kdspugh

    Very entertaining, the whole family enjoyed this movie. Some of the imagery might be a little scary for some younger kids, but should be OK for most.
    I thought the story was great and had some positive messages.

    Hope you go and see it, and enjoy the film as much as we did!

    The best movie I've seen in a VERY long time!!!

    by

    This was a beautiful movie with lovable characters, a fun and adventurous story line and a good message for viewers of all ages! I'm BEGGING Dreamworks to release this movie on DVD soon so I can watch it at home all the time, and I will not hesitate to watch it in theaters again! And to my fellow Jack Frost fangirls, if you love Jack Frost before seeing the movie you will fall even MORE in love with him AFTER seeing it! I know I did! Long story short, my new FAVORITE movie! :3

    Much better than expected!

    I wasn't expecting more than a feel-good, simple kids movie, but I felt like a six year old in DIsney World for the first time while watching it!
    The characters are so masterfully designed, every little detail so meticulously perfect. It was a great plot, had in-depth characters that I normally wouldn't expect from a family movie, and great talent all around. Even though I'm practically broke, I'm going to fork over another 10 to go see it once more!

    My 12-year old LOVED IT!

    Fun and exciting; a must see for kids of all age. This was a wonderful movie; especially during the holidays. I felt like a kid again watching it (a true believer) and my daughter absolutely enjoyed it.

    believe in magic

    by

    I can see our family watching it again just before the holidays to get us into the spirit. A gentle, fun and heartwarming tale of believing in magic.

    Entertained 6yr old girls and 11yr old boy

    It takes a really good movie to keep young girls and an older boy entertained. By the end of the movie, the girls had been bouncing in their seats and the boy had been teary eyed. A huge win for all concerned. We will be going again soon and taking Grandma and Dad along.

    The plot is not overly complicated and just scary enough to have emotional resonance. The script is nothing to celebrate, but the voice acting is excellent.

    :)

    Surprising Good

    I kinda thought that this was gong to be a kid movie since it was a cartoon and all, but if there were any little ones there, they would have likes seeing the characters, but they may not have understood the messages in the story. I definitely loved the voice actors. They did a pretty good job with expressing the emotions for all of the characters.

    The story can touch a lot of people from those that are either going through a time in their life where they feel like they are a nobody or no one understands them or no one actually sees them for who they are or if they feel alone out there in the world or from a compassionate point of view of putting themselves in that position.

    Overall, t was a pretty good movie. Favorite character was Sandman and Santa Claus. Who doesn't love Santa especially when he is Russian and he has tattoos on his forearms. LOL. I will be buying this movie when it comes on DVD or through iTunes

    Different Kinda Christmas Story

    by cmelo11

    I took my kids to see this very reluctantly, the trailers for this movie did not make me want to go see this movie at all. However, I must say that even with a Austrian Easter Bunny & a Russian. Sword welding Santa it was a good story and my kids really enjoyed this.

    Everyone should see this!

    This is not only a great movie for kids, but for everyone. The characters are well conceived and have great life to them due to the amazing cast. I thoroughly enjoyed this movie and can't wait to see it again.

    Very nice

    by

    I have always been a big fan of animation movies and I definitely loved this one. A very new take on saving Christmas. In fact, not just Christmas, but easter too. Excellent flight scenes... carried me away all the way to the moon and then back. Beautiful. Really beautiful.

    Cute Movie

    by megemrj

    Good graphics and story line. Good for older children, but there is alot of hitting in the movie. If you child gets frightened easily or has an active imagination be aware the boogie man is very prominent and scary.

    FAMILY movie

    Great family movie even saw my 17yr old son laugh. The tikes will thoroughly enjoy watching the Easter Bunny being the tough Australian and Jack Frost getting the Fairies eye. Very nice flick.

liznavard I find myself wondering why Jack Frost from rise of the guardians voice is so beautiful and then I realized it was because it's Chris Pine
