Years ago, when author William Joyce’s young daughter lost her tooth and casually asked her father if Santa and the tooth fairy knew each other, she couldn’t have predicted it would spark a creative streak in him, resulting in thirteen books and now, a movie. Mary Catherine Joyce has since passed away, but Rise of the Guardians serves as a nice tribute to her imaginative childhood mind.
The books and the movie are based on a simple yet clever idea; supposing our childhood heroes (Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, the Tooth Fairy and the Sandman) are part of a group called The Guardians - like a Justice League or Avengers for children. And because these are characters many of us grew up with, the film spares us the origin stories for all… except one.
Rise of the Guardians opens with a beautiful prologue showing Jack Frost (voiced by Chris Pine) waking up in an ice-cold lake with no recollection of how he got there or who he is. Soon, Jack realizes he has been given the power of cold weather - he can create slippery ice, snow days, and lots of cold mischief for young kids.
Though not as unique as recent animated movies like Wreck-It Ralph, Rise of the Guardians is very well made, and the set-up of these characters leave many possibilities for a franchise. Kids and adults will enjoy the holiday magic that Rise of the Guardians spins with its beautiful design and interesting twist on well-known characters.
