Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga'Hoole is a 2010 American-Australian 3D computer-animated action-adventure fantasy movie. It is directed by Zack Snyder and was based on the first three books of the Guardians of Ga'Hoole series by Kathryn Lasky. The movie tells the story of Soren (Jim Sturgess), a young Barn Owl who dreams of adventure and wants to be a Guardian. However, his older brother, Kludd (Ryan Kwanten), thinks he is foolish and belittles him for his childlike ideals. One night, while practicing flying, Soren and Kludd are kidnapped by a group of sinister owls called the Pure Ones, who plan to brainwash them into becoming soldiers in their evil army. Soren and Kludd are taken to the Pure One's stronghold, where they meet the ruthless Nyra (Helen Mirren) and her mate, Metalbeak (Joel Edgerton). The Pure Ones have amassed an army of evil owls and plan to conquer the Great Tree, home to the Guardians of Ga'Hoole, and enslave all of owlkind. Soren manages to escape with a young Elf Owl named Gylfie (Emily Barclay) and together they set out to find the Guardians and warn them of the impending attack. Along the way, Soren and Gylfie meet two other young owls, Digger (David Wenham) and Twilight (Anthony LaPaglia), who join them on their quest. They also encounter an old, wise Great Grey Owl named Ezylryb (Geoffrey Rush), who teaches them about the legend of Ga'Hoole and gives them hope in their mission. However, they soon discover that the path to the Great Tree is fraught with danger, as the Pure Ones are hot on their heels, determined to stop them at all costs. As Soren and his friends journey through the perilous landscape, they face many challenges and setbacks. They must battle fierce wolves, navigate treacherous mountains, and avoid the deadly claws of the Pure Ones' soldiers. However, they are determined to reach the Great Tree in time to warn the Guardians and stop the Pure Ones from destroying their way of life. When Soren and his friends finally reach the Great Tree, they are met with skepticism and disbelief from the Guardians. However, with the help of Ezylryb, Soren is able to convince them of the impending danger and they prepare to defend their home against the Pure Ones.
