The movie Legend of the Guardians has to one of my all time favorite movies. It has a lot of things in it that I really enjoy to see, watch, and hear. The movie is based on a book series and I believe Zack Snyder (the movie developer 300) did an outstanding job with this movie. He definitely kept the movie kid friendly while still keeping the fight scenes interesting at the same time. The movie consists of a few well known actors from different movies. The main actors of the movie are: Jim Sturgess as Soren, David Wenham as Digger, Emily Barclay as Gylfie, and Anthony LaPaglia as Twilight. All four of these actors just make the movie great to watch.
The story is the classic good versus evil, but with an interesting twist. Legend of The guardians has absolutely no humans in it what so ever. The movie does have owls as the main species. They can speak, listen, read, and write; all of the basic traits of a human. So, it’s kind of in a way, you’re watching people just in animal form.
On release date the movie was seen by tons of people. The one was that express their personal opinion is the critics. Many gave this movie different rating. The critics rated it from a letter grade to a more standard star grade. I agree with some critics while at the same time I don’t agree. Some say it has stunning environments just like Avatar; while others have just a simple hard time trying to understand a fantasy movie from a real one. One person didn’t understand that an owl could be a blacksmith in it. I say they are wrong. If I wanted a fish make fire underwater with seaweed, I’ll make a fish do that in my story. The movie is all about having a imagination and not trying to make the movie actually real.
In the end, I personally just love this movie. It consists of many story elements that I love. It was even better when I went to see it in 3D which was just beyond belief. Personally, once I saw the flight moments and the animation in this movie. It will be hard to see the second one in 2D. So yes, this movie is worth watching and possibly buying.
