Secret of Kells

The Secret of Kells is an animated tale of a young man, Brendon growing up in a monastery with his uncle. They are building a wall around their city to prevent the Vikings from invading....hm mm maybe we can build a wall on the Minnesota border, or wrong Vikings--I digress. Brenden discovers that he has the ability to be an illuminator and write books with an old master. The uncle figures it to be a waste of time and thus continues the story. This is a very literary type movie and visually stunning but I only give it one thumb up due to some slow-moving moments.
