A cute story about keeping children's beliefs alive - belief in the Easter Bunny, Tooth Fairy, Santa Claus, Sandman, and Jack Frost - as the Boogeyman tries to destroy their belief. Great animation and an overall positive theme ensure a feel-good movie that is probably best enjoyed around the Festive Season. This is one of my favorite animated films. I just love the kangaroo...uhm, bunny...
The main thing you need for a good animated film is story. Quite often that's missing. Rise Of The Guardians succeeds massively here.Brilliant story idea really well executed.The other essentials parts were spot on too: cute characters were cute, funny bits were funny, the baddie was very creepy and the dark scary scenes added great contrast.Will definitely watch again.A satisfying 9 out of 10 for me
This was a cute film. Fun characters who are likable and great animation. The elves were adorable, the Easter Bunny was amusing and I think like everyone else I have a crush on Jack Frost now. Kind of have one on Pitch, too. Can Pitch get his own movie, please? I do love a good villain. I always crave more characterization and back story, but alas it was mostly all surface details and stereotypes. I have to remember this is a children's film and not an epic. All in all very enjoyable. I would recommend this film.
At first, I rated this movie a near 10 because I was impressed by how they formulated the story of Jack Frost as a character (and I still am) and the beautiful cinematography they pleased my eyes with.Yes, it was that good (and it still is).I extracted 3 points for the following reasons:a. The ending line. (I was left thinking like, what? The moon?) (-1 point)b. The Boogeyman. (he is a fine villain for kids, yet his evilness is not solid enough, or should I say, the resolution of his evil trait is not solved beautifully, only good enough to keep the story going) (-1 point)c. Overall experience. (there are good movies that you would not bore to watch repetitively, but for me, this movie isn't one of those. After watching it twice, three times, fourth, I finally feel like...what? Especially about the previous reasons)But it wouldn't hurt to watch it once in a while, say, once every several months or once every year.It will fill us with the wonder of Jack Frost's story in a very pleasing cinematography.
