Please take this review with a grain of salt(Depending on one's interpretation, what one person thinks may be regarded as silly or untrue by another.)
The Rise of the Guardians is a phenomenal movie that certainly can break through human apathy. The plot is amazing and really tugs at the heart-strings often. Events eventually lead into future events in the story, giving a good, well structured sequence. The audience is able to delve into the past of Jack Frost at certain parts, and from these moments that occurred, it builds a sort of skeleton for the main plot. The iconic members of the team (Guardians), are likely to be vivid in every child's mind, from the jolly Santa Claus to the Easter Bunny. Of course, Jack Frost is also here to freeze away our negative feelings that gnaw at our feet, and here to bring a new future of mischievous fun and happiness. I highly recommend people of all ages to come have a bit of snowball mania with Jack Frost and your childhood dreams!Be you a child or an adult or an elder, this movie is perfect for any occasion. Remember, every person has a child in them, just waiting to act on the right side of the human morality scale! Fear is portrayed as the worst, but kids have a special innocence that requires life's sugar(good elements) such as this movie, even if it may not be reflective of real life. Fantasy takes any shape, and it's always there in the heart of every person!
Edit: (Don't worry,I'll try to shorten this part as much as possible so that you can read less to have more time to watch the movie!)
I may have been overly enthusiastic when I wrote the first part of the review, but this is how you feel when you enjoy a movie so much that you turn a blind eye to its faults. Although I emphasize the movie's "good parts" excessively, this movie still has its faults. From what I saw in the movie, here are a few examples of some of its flaws:
1. While I did note that kids' sense of innocence should be preserved with feel-good scenes like the many found in the movie, the movie sort of emphasizes that fear is bad and it is not good for people to feel fear. Well, it is natural that every person feels scared at times, so it should be noted that one should reassure kids that there is nothing wrong with feeling scared in certain situations. Also, fear is not always something to panic and run from. It may even serve as motivation, if it is not taken in moderation.
2. The next one may sound a bit rude, but bear with me. Santa Claus does not look like most people's first image in their minds when they think of those words. Kids and even adults may be slightly bewildered by this new imagining of Santa Claus. Don't worry, it is still the same man in red who goes down chimneys and leaves presents under the Christmas tree.
3. Some scenes, upon additional evaluation, would be confusing for some people because the scene on the screen doesn't seem to have anything to do with what was happening a minute ago. I recall that I wrote that the scenes flow effortlessly into other scenes so that the audience knows exactly what is going on. Actually, this was mostly true for me because I like to read spoilers before I watch a movie. So, keep this in mind, but don't let my opinion spoil your fun!
In conclusion, I think this is a great movie for any age group, though kids may appreciate it a bit more than adults. I hope this review is helpful and that you enjoy the movie as much as I did!
