Rise of the Guardians
Generation after generation, immortal Guardians like Santa Claus (Alec Baldwin), the Easter Bunny (Hugh Jackman) and the Tooth Fairy (Isla Fisher) protect the world’s children from darkness and despair. However, an evil boogeyman named Pitch Black (Jude Law) schemes to overthrow the Guardians by obliterating children’s belief in them. It falls to a winter sprite named Jack Frost (Chris Pine) to thwart Pitch’s plans and save the Guardians from destruction.
It would easy to think of this movie as a Christmas movie, but the dedication of the Easter Bunny to resurrection, new life, and springtime is unmistakably Christian. It is only in recognizing new life and hope that we can survive anything. That is the message of Easter – and the message we need today.
