Film Critique: Epic

   For the move 'Epic', it covered several subjects. However, the most obvious ones were biology (pretty much any sort of science) and history. History, because of the fact that they had all of the ancient scrolls that told every event of the past. The setting was mostly in the forest, and there were a few scenes at the girl's house with her dad. The forest had two kingdoms, the Leafmen kingdom and the evil guy's kingdom who wanted the whole forest to be dead.
   In the beginning of the movie, the girl was given the pod of life and she needs to make sure that it blooms in  the moonlight in order for the whole forest to be saved. It raises the issue of loyalty and trust. The major themes of this movie were love and loyalty and being trustworthy.
   I liked the movie a lot, and I loved everything about it. The only thing I would change is that in the end, I would have had both the dad and the girl shrink and stay like that instead. It would have made for a better love story and also the dad would have been really happy. I think people of all ages would like this film.
   The only weakness in this film was the ending, but other than that I actually thought all of it was great. I would watch this in my spare time.
