I didn't even know that this film is already playing in the cinemas until I saw the trailer on TV yesterday (or rather, early this morning, 4am), and I immediately decided to see it because, aside from the film festivals I attended, I haven't been to the cinemas in Tokyo for a long time.

When a young owl is abducted by an evil Owl army, he must escape with newfound friends to seek out the legendary Guardians to stop the menace.

Soren, a young barn owl, is kidnapped by owls of St. Aggies, ostensibly an orphanage, where owlets are brainwashed into becoming soldiers. He and his new friends escape to the island of GaHoole, to assist its noble, wise owls who fight the army being created by the wicked rulers of St. Aggies. The film is based on the first three books in the series.
