• 4 1/2 Stars...Fast-paced and Fun
  My childhood love of books was first ignited by the Chronicles of Narnia. I was swept away into worlds fanciful, dangerous, and often layered in symbolism. Until a few years ago, I never thought films could capture what I experienced in my own imagination.
  "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe" was a pleasant surprise. Talking animals, the faun, and the magic of the wardrobe were all brought to life with amazing detail and warmth--or, in the case of the White Witch, chill. Despite enjoying the movie,... more info

• All Violence, Very Little Story.
  I know there may be plenty of critical reviews here, but I can't resist putting my thoughts in.

  I gave this installment of "The Chronicles of Narnia" two stars only because of the special effects. The story really departed from the book and could have been much better had it followed the book more closely. In the book, Prince Caspian was a young boy, NOT an adult. The Disney folks only made him an adult so they could work in a love interest with Queen Susan. I don't object to a love interest in a movie if it belongs. In this case, it was totally uncalled for. Finally, too many scenes were taken out... more info
