Legend of the Guardians:The Owls of Ga'Hoole (2010)

Zack Snyder did it once again and he is going to continue giving hits in the long run as well. With movies like 300 and Watchmen to his fame-bag his next big flick Sucker Punch is all set to release this year while Superman: Man of steel and Xerxes are his next big projects.


Well talking about the Legend of the guardians:The Owls of Ga'Hoole, this one’s a must go. One of the finest animations of all times, this movie had not only its beautiful cinematography and marvellous scenic surroundings to offer but also a wonderful storyline that it follows. Every aspect of the emotions that ought to be present in a countenance was well depicted in the movie. Every character was extremely well personified. I was wonder-struck by the animation. The story was well interwoven which suited the animation as it was adventurous and quite gripping too.

Soren(voice of Jim Sturgess), the main character in the story is an owl who believes in the stories he has been told for years and he hangs onto that faith which proves eventually that his belief was not merely a myth but clearly a fact. He and his brother Kludd(Ryan Kwanten) end up falling from the branch of their home. They were held captive by a different species of owls who were preparing the owls for a battle against the guardians. The brethren part ways once the path of righteousness was put to test.
Kludd chose to work for them while Soren along with Gylfie(Emily Barclay) decided to take off the moment they got an opportunity. He learns to fly in a strange situation with the assistance of a fellow owl in their army who aids them to escape. Soren and Gylfie fly off together on an adventurous sojourn to seek the guardians, which Soren believed existed (and they did exist) thus alerting the guardians of the peril on hand. The guardians return unprepared to the land of the enemies only to find an ambush caused by a fellow guardian who turns out to be a traitor. Soren returns to the land and heroically saves the jeopardized lives of the guardians eventually.

The movie is a must-watch.It should be seen in 3d or IMAX for a full thrilling experience. There are several breathtaking scenes in the movie that seriously demand an IMAX 4d feel. I’d recommend everyone to go for this movie as probably no one would regret watching this flick.
