The Secret of Kells

When I first saw the trailer for this movie, I thought it looked like it was for little kids, so I didn't see it. About a month and a half later, I looked at the trailer again and thought it looked O.K. so I went to see it at the Gene Siskel Film Center. I walked out of the theater with the thought in my head, "Why the heck did I think this movie looked like it was for youngsters"? This movie was about a young irish boy named Brendan who lived in a very religous community and was taught very strictly by the Abott. The people in the community were working on a wall to keep the dangerous Vikings away. One day, Brother Aidan came to town who would changed Brendan's life forever. One day, Aidan sent him to go to the forbidden forest to go and fetch berries for ink. When he goes into the forest, he meets a forest fairy named Ashley. That's when things REALLY start going haywire. This was an AMAZING movie for people who like exciting fantasies and all in all, I give this movie 5 stars! This time I really mean it!
