Reviews

Entertainment Weekly -
Director Zack Snyder (300) has crafted the rare 3-D eyegasm that's worth the premium ticket price.

The Hollywood Reporter -
This picture sometimes rivals "Avatar" in its spectacular landscapes and thrilling flying sequences, but of course it won't come anywhere near those megagrosses, and it's too scary to be wholeheartedly embraced by children.

Los Angeles Times -
There's a confusion that you can sense as well, with the film pulled between its light and dark sides just as the owls struggle with forces of good and evil. That hesitation keeps "Guardians" from reaching the deep, emotionally rich center that confers greatness in the animation world.

Orlando Sentinel -
A gorgeously animated combat fantasy - "The Lord of the Rings" meets "Happy Feet."

Boston Globe -
The result is sometimes charming and always visually astonishing.
