Legend of the Guardians - The Owls of Ga'Hoole was an awesome movie. I love this movie because it starts out with a legend and you aren't sure if it is true or not. We get to discover the truth behind the legend the same time as the characters in the movie. The best part of the movie is when Soren and his friends are flying to find the Guardians of Ga'Hoole because I felt like I was a part of the adventure.
My favorite characters in the film are Soren, Digger, Gylfie and Twilight. I like them because they turn out to be the heroes even though you wouldn't think so at the beginning of the movie. One of the best parts of the movie is when Ezylryb shows Soren how to fly in a storm. He teaches Soren to trust his gizzard and helps him to become a legend himself. Digger and Twilight are the funniest characters in the movie. They are always arguing and going back and forth about Twilight singing too much and Digger saying too many owl jokes. It is hilarious!
There are a lot of bad owls in this movie. The Pure Ones try to form an army of young owls by taking them against their will. It is up to Soren and his friends to escape the Pure Ones and find the Guardians of Ga'Hoole.
I would recommend this film for ages five and up. There are some scary parts in the movie that smaller children may not like. Overall, the movie has a great storyline. You should go out and get this DVD. It is awesome!

Acclaimed filmmaker Zack Snyder (300, Watchmen) makes his animation debut with this fantasy adventure based on the beloved books by Kathryn Lasky. Young owl Soren marvels at his father's epic stories of the Guardians of Ga'Hoole, mythic winged warriors who fought a great battle to save all owl kind from the evil Pure Ones. When he and brother Kludd fall from their treetop home and into the talons of the Pure Ones, it's up to Soren to make a daring escape with the help of other brave owls. Together they seek the Great Tree, home of the Guardians--the only hope of defeating the Pure Ones and saving the owl kingdoms. The stellar voice cast includes Abbie Cornish, Miriam Margolyes, Helen Mirren, Sam Neill, Geoffrey Rush, Jim Sturgess and Hugo Weaving.
