Review of The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe (2005) by Brutus — 15 May 2006
I wish some of these people would get over their angst over the Christian allegory thing, which is frankly hardly there unless you buld it up. Fundamentally, this story will never be done better. I loved the books, but a very long time ago.
So when I saw the movie, I was pleasantly surprised to see that it seriously retained the magic of the book (for a audience of children, not a bunch of CGI nerds who apparently wanted another Lord of the Rings) and that the battle scene was (unlike the book) pretty damn good.
And the performances of the kids were delightful. Roll on the next one.
