Will, having been born with a great gift of power, is called upon to undertake a monumental heroic quest.
As the Sign-Seeker, Will embarks on a journey in search of the six magical Signs needed by the Old Ones for the future battle between the Dark and the Light. Will's endeavor is full of peril, wonder, reward and delight as he meets myriad allies and foes in uncovering a series of mysterious clues. Will also seeks to obtain the necessary knowledge and skills for the next battle of the great war begun centuries ago by King Arthur.
The Dark is Rising features elements from English folklore woven into an exhilarating story. Magic, artifacts, mystery, good and evil characters and Will's release from the laws of the universe that bind space and time all come together to spin an enthralling story.

This movie is only very loosely based on the book, and the screenwriter
confirms that he tossed out all that pagan mythological stuff, so the attached
article is incorrect on a number of points. Take a quintessential British
novel, tart it up to make it more "American accessible," rip out its soul, and
you get this pablum -- a movie manufactured to appeal to the shallow and
immature.
