You won't be disappointed...

Rating: 10/10 (20 November 2010)

I highly recommend this movie. If you've seen the prior installments of the series, you're in for a real treat--this is the best of the lot. The acting is superb, the pacing just right, the cinematography beautiful and dramatic, the settings gorgeous. As always, one can't expect the movie to slavishly follow the book; sticklers for details and favorite scenes may be disappointed. But the essence of the story in character development, in tone, and in the great themes of the series are all captured quite well.
Exciting, engaging, somber and humorous, well done! And someone in our group had not read the stories and seen only one of the prior movies and followed along quite well... Highly recommended for older children, teens, and adults who have kept their imaginations alive.
