Very disappointing...

Too much of everything

Simply Perfect

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

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...

For a long time I've been debating on whether or not to see the movie. Then I found it on my Apple TV for a cheap price and thought " Why not" and I was blown away by it. One of the best parts was the characters. I've grown up with a few of these characters, and seeing them in a different way, like a Russian Santa or an Australian Easter Bunny, was really great and I got to learn about other characters that I didn't know about( Jack Frost and the Sandman) and to see them interact with each other and being happy and seeing them kick butt and I loved them all. The vocal actors were amazing and brought more joy to the movie ( Chris Pine, Hugh Jackman, Jude Law to name a few). The animation was beautiful and so detailed. I loved Jacks backstory and his playful personality. I laughed and cried. I would recommend this to anyone and to anyone with kids,if they believe in Santa or not.

The movie begins with Jack Frost floating up from a lake. He rises toward the moon. Next thing you know, Jack Frost gets his magical staff. He plays with it and realizes it's power. He questioned why he was there and what he was suppose to do. He didn't get an answer. Learning to fly amused him. He was happy! He then walked into a small village and started being friendly with the people but he doesn't realize they can't hear him until one of them walks through him. That's when the moon told him his name was Jack Frost. That was all he was ever told.The next scenes show North noticing an imbalance on the globe. He immediately sets off the alarm to call all of his fellow Guardians to the North Pole to have a meeting because the children are in danger. Soon Sandy, Tooth, and Bunny appear. North tells them about the darkness that is looming. They don't believe him. They argue and then the Man in the Moon appears. He tells them that it is time to get a new guardian. It is revealed that it is Jack Frost. Bunny is in total disagreement. Jack Frost is known for his wild antics and his ornery attitude. Bunny doesn't believe he can protect the children from the danger that is coming.Santa sends his helpers to grab Jack and they transport him to the North Pole. Jack is confused and is trying to figure out his place. They announce that he is now a Guardian. Jack shuts down the celebration because he doesn't want to be a Guardian. Tooth tries to explain the job of protecting the children and then they tell him about Pitch coming to hurt all the children and all their innocent beliefs. That isn't convincing enough so North decides to give him a tour of the North Pole. North's pep talk gives Jack something to think about. Jack agrees to help just this once to defeat Pitch to save the children from terror. Pitch decides to take on each character one by one so the children will stop believing in them. He starts with Tooth and then moves on to making Sandy disappear. Tooth becomes very weak to battle, so all that is left is North, Bunny, and Jack. Pitch then ruins Easter so Bunny then becomes too weak to battle. The final battle is between Jack and Pitch. Jack enlists some neighborhood kids that still believe in the Guardians. Their strength helps Jack and together they defeat Pitch. Pitch ends up being forced to go back under the bed where he is trapped and forced to stay away from all of the children.The lessons in this movie are simple. There is always going to be good and evil in life. As a child, you believe in both. As an adult, good and evil are still a part of life but in very different ways. One can always choose to believe in good or evil. Evil will take away happiness every time. The theme of this movie shows how believing in good can make your life wonderful.

After Pitch threatens to smash every hope and dream from the children, the moon names as a new guardian Jack Frost despite the dismay of the four other guardians. A movie with Santa Clause and easter bunny as super heroes couldn't be anything like the previous ones, even though it manly focuses on Jack Frost. To be honest, I found that at some points the movie got confusing, but it quickly recovered, with enough action to keep the interest high till the end. The constance reminder of the importance of the kids was a little off for me, but, as it is a children movie, I guess it was appropriate. So I give the rise of the guardians a 4 out of 10.
