The Man in the Moon has selected Jack Frost to be the Guardian to do battle with the evil Pitch Black. Jack Frost is joined by the Toothfairy, Sandman, Easter Bunny, and Santa Claus.
This is a DreamWorks Animation, and it looks good. Certainly it's not groundbreaking, and the selection of classic characters just adds to its feels of unoriginalness. It feels like a slightly different take on the same old stories. And it doesn't help that the characters seems to have powers coming out of the blue. The rules of the movie are never laid out solidly.
There is a sub-story of the need for kids to believe. I think it is the bigger theme that needed to be put up front and center. The kids needed to be the lead especially the last one to believe. As it stands, the movie is a nice story. But I doubt it will be a classic years from now.
