Epic- Symbiotic Relationship with Nature

Engaging Film
A favourite premise these days is the symbiosis between man and nature.

In Epic, it ties even the hidden fictional Leaf People to the destiny and future of mankind. 

As the story goes, the Leaf people were attacked by the bat-like creatures led by their nemesis, Mandrake, bent of killing off the Leaf people. Actually, Mandrake's flying armies look very much like those morbid   zombie-warriors of Lord of the Rings. 

After fatally wounding the Queen of the Leaf People, Mandrake suddenly faced  a hostile defense force led by a young girl called Mary Katherine who was visiting her absent-minded scientist father.

As with most animated feature, we have the side-shows in the form of two lovable slugs.

It features the voice of Beyonce, Colin Farell and Amanda Seyfried.

Fair outing and the special effects and colours are vividly beautiful.
