Rise of the Guardians

This is one of the year's best animated films! (In fact it might be the best.) While Pixar's "Brave" was visually appealing and it's music making it well-worth watching, "Rise of the Guardians"s storyline was much more appealing, much funnier, and much more inspiring! One of the things I try to pay attention to in theaters is the reaction of children to movies intended for them.  There was a lot of laughter and children whispering to their parents that they liked one thing or another.  Honestly I was laughing right along with them. Well-worth the effort to watch in theaters or eventually purchase when it reaches the shelves as holiday classic on DVD.
