The film follows Mune (voice of Joshua J. Ballard), a carefree faun chosen to be the new guardian of the moon. Working alongside the brash new guardian of the sun Sohone (Rob Lowe), Mune must quickly adapt to his new role watching over the night. However, when corrupt titan Necross (Davey Grant) emerges from the underworld to steal the sun, Mune and Sohone must put their differences aside and work together to restore order in the world.

Before I went to the cinema to see this movie, I read a review I came across somewhere, and it stuck in my mind that "the main reason to go see Mune: Guardian of the Moon is the imaginary world it is set in." Well, that is true. It has a very straightforward narrative, which is quite predictable, and I have to say that I did not find it very moving, and the characters did not appeal to me either. For example, I was not too fond of the character Sohone for most of the movie. The only character that stuck in my head besides Mune and Glim was probably Spleen, who was like the robot Marvin from Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. However, I liked the imaginary world, its colors, ideas, physics, and logic a lot; all of this had its magic. So did all the creatures that lived there, from the huge "temples" to the cute "furry tennis shoes" and all sorts of "crossbreeds" (the purest creature on the planet is a lamb with a bird's head and antlers). So instead of following a simple narrative, which was mostly predictable, my attention was diverted to various details and corners of this beautiful planet. I also have to appreciate the change of animation when the main protagonists entered Dreamland, it was surprising, and I liked it. To sum up, I thought Mune: Guardian of the Moon was below average, for the most part. However, the ideas and the beautiful setting pull it up to slightly above-average for me, 6.2/10.

In this case, the story is brutally traditional and lacks any unexpected twists, which is sad, especially because the visual aspect is simply gorgeous. Not just the main 3D animation, but also the episodic one that appears here is noteworthy. I really enjoyed looking at it, especially some of the graphic designs. Someone really played around with the characters here.
