Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga'Hoole

I freaking loved Legend of the Guardians! It was a stunning and beautiful movie filled with adventure and hope! The owls were so magical and looked so real. I would say this is by far the best computer generated movie I have ever seen. It looked so lifelike and the animals were so graceful!

The movie starts with a family of Owls and they two boys are learning how to fly. Well at night the mother and father leave to hunt and the boys stay in the tree with their new born sister and the snake nanny. This family was raised on stories and Legends of these Owl Guardians that fight for peace and Justice. They are stories but Soren and his little sister Eglantine believe. One day the boys, Soren and Kludd fall out of their tree and they are kidnapped by bigger Owls. They are taken to a tree where Owls are brain washing Owls that can't fly to be apart of this army. Well come to find out the leader is a once powerful guardian who betrayed the Owls and is now seeking revenge.

So Soren learns to fly and makes friends along the way. The point of the movie is accepting people and having faith in something bigger than yourself. Soren believes in the Guardians and will search for them until he finds them.

Now I won't ruin the movie for you but it is epic! It is filled with battles and family problems. It has brother against brother, friend against friend and so much more. The movie was beautifully told and is very inspiring. The faith that Soren has alone is so amazing and so pure. All the characters were fun loving and all had a purpose. I say check this movie out! It is truly amazing and you will not be sorry. It is visually stunning and I really hope that it gets some type of Oscar nomination because it is stunning!

Action: YES!
Adventure; YES

Over all grade.....A!!!!!!!

ps. yes the voice of Soren is Jim Sturgess from Across the Universe!
