| − | |In a world where owls live in different kingdoms, young barn owl Soren grows up being inspired by the Guardians of Ga'Hoole, knightly owls who perform noble deeds. One night, he and his brother Kludd are snatched away from home while practicing flying, and they're taken to a facility that makes owlets build a contraption for world domination for the Pure Ones (which are barn owl supremacists). Escaping with another young owl, Soren goes on his way to find the Great Ga'Hoole tree and warn its guardians of the danger awaiting their kingdom. Like the books the movie is based on, the movie shows a story of [[good and evil]] in a positive light, where the Guardians fight for the security and freedom of their home and the other owl kingdoms against the tyranny of the Pure Ones. It also condemns abandoning family, for Kludd is easily won over to the Pure Ones side due to falling for the High Tyto Metal Beak's queen, Nyra, even going so far as to kidnap his baby sister and brainwash her for Metal Beak. However, the movie suffers from rather weak storytelling. | + | |In a world where owls live in different kingdoms, young barn owl Soren grows up being inspired by the Guardians of Ga'Hoole, knightly owls who perform noble deeds.

Escaping with another young owl, Soren goes on his way to find the Great Ga'Hoole tree and warn its guardians of the danger awaiting their kingdom. Like the ''Guardians of Ga'Hoole'' books the movie is based on, the movie shows friendship and a story of [[good and evil]] in a positive light, where the Guardians fight for the security and freedom of their home and the other owl kingdoms against the tyranny of the Pure Ones. It also condemns abandoning family, for Kludd is easily won over to the Pure Ones side due to falling for the High Tyto Metal Beak's queen, Nyra, abandoning Soren to be forced to work alongside the other brainwashed owlets. Another case is Kludd going so far as to kidnap his baby sister and brainwash her for Metal Beak's cause. However, the movie suffers from rather weak storytelling and did not perform well in theaters. |
