A visually stunning movie that is destined to become a holiday classic, along with Rudolph and The Grinch. The overarching theme of The Rise of The Guardians revolves around Jack Frost finding his identity, and how important beliefs are in shaping reality.
The importance of “finding your center” is explored by multiple characters. It’s a message that young children may not grasp, but may resonate with some pre-adolescent kids. The movie and its concepts could be used as a stepping stone to a thought provoking discussion with your children afterwards…much the same way that watching Rudolph can lead to a discussion about how everyone feels like a misfit sometimes.[pullquote] And yet that trait that makes us feel like a misfit may later become a source of strength.[/pullquote]
While Guardians might have its greatest appeal for pre-adolescent children, it’s really a movie for all ages. Its silly humor will appeal to younger children, and of course it has humor aimed specifically at adults, as all good animated movies should have.

Love love love this app. And, after receiving an email from Dan (the creator) that read as though it was a one-on-one communication sent only to me, I felt compelled to leave a long-overdue review. My son and I are absolutely addicted to this app...especially since I discovered it at the onset of the Marvel craze. Now we use it to confirm if there is a scene following the credits. Often times, we are the ONLY ones there watching the bonus scene...and it cracks us up. LOL! Thanks, RunPee!

Movie Rewatch Review — Dr. Seuss’ How The Grinch Stole Christmas (1966)
RunPee Mom is our emotional bedrock. Without her, RunPee never would have lasted a decade as an app (which is since the dawn of time in internet years). She’s our biggest cheerleader and an unending source of unconditional love. She works cheerfully and tirelessly, seeing any movie we ask of her, writing interesting reviews, and being our…well…MOM. Her genres of choice: kiddie flicks, animated movies, emotional dramas, historical features, war films, diverse biographies, and even dense, diabolically plotted thrillers. She knows more about famous and infamous figures in history than said figures probably knew about themselves. She’s the Quiz Manager for the RunPee.com blog, and our resident movie celebrity/trivia expert. If you’ve taken a RunPee Quiz, you’ve most likely been given a virtual hug by RunPee Mom.
