Legend Of The Guardians: The Owls of Ga'Hoole, directed by Zack Snyder (300 and Watchman), is an animated film based upon the first three books in a series of 15 children's books called Guardians Of Ga'Hoole, by Kathryn Lasky. The film follows the mythological story of kidnapped owls and the saving of owlkind from a warring faction. Two owls, Soren (Sturgess) and Kludd (Kwanten), both who have radically different dreams in life, navigate the perilous world they find themselves in after falling from their treetop home. While Soren dreams of someday joining his heroes, his older brother, Kludd, scoffs at the notion and yearns to hunt, fly, and steal his father's favor from his younger sibling. But Kludd's jealousy has terrible consequences—causing both owlets to fall from their treetop home. When they get snatched up by the Pure Ones, Soren makes a daring escape and, with other young owls, soars across the sea and through the mist to find the Great Tree, the home of legendary Guardians—Soren's only hope of defeating the Pure Ones, rescuing his older brother, and saving the owl kingdoms. (Gary Reber)
