Overall, the movie is very enjoyable to watch, especially for young children who really believes in Santa, Tooth Fairy, Easter Bunny, The Sandman, Boogeyman and Jack who? It really is a light movie to watch and to pass the time with some laughter. Other than that, it really is nothing much for us to remember about. At least for us adult I guess, but assuredly kids will love it!

| Fun to watch ★★ ★★ ☆☆☆☆☆☆ 4/10 |
Jack Frost (Chris Pine) was recruited as the member of the Guardians along side Santa Claus (Alec Baldwin), the Tooth Fairy (Isla Fisher), the Easter Bunny (Hugh Jackman) and the Sandman to fight against Pitch (Jude Law); the Boogeyman, who begins his plan to engulf the world in darkness. Jack agrees to help the Guardians despite being reluctant at first in order to seek the memory of his past life.
A very unique combination of heroes I must say. You have the Russian-mob-like-Santa, an Aussie Bunny and a Sandman that look like Teller from Penn & Teller, fan girls fairy and Jack who? Story line was very much predictable. Nothing is too heavy to digest and its pretty much for young children to enjoy.
I guess Rise of the Guardians is one of those light entertainment by DreamWorks. Not much of a build up to the story line and it carries very little emotional attachment to the story and to the characters. The great thing about it is that it's colorful and it has all the characters that kids were brought up listening to some of their stories.
