Unforgettable adventure, or just meddling kids

Rating: 6/10 (26 January 2006)

The expectations were really high remembering how thrilling the originally made cartoon was. Scenes were spectacular. All those cute animals communicating in English and those joyful enthusiastic children trying to help everyone they either have, or haven't met. Yep, they really did it this time. Or have they....
I couldn't stop myself from catching the fact that the film was dull. I mean, they really stayed faithful to the original, which can be as far as I'm concerned, only a good thing, but the result was vastly disappointing. Maybe it was just a bad mood, or too high expectations, but still:"Boooooooooooring"! However I must give credits to Tilda Swinton for her performance in acting the Snow witch. Her deeds were as cruel and as hysterical as I remember them from cartoon. As the snow laied throughout the Narnia was melting, so was she getting more and more repulsive. Her attractive blistering pale skin from beginning was steadily turning into a red burned dermal cancer.
"And I would have gotten away with it, if it wasn't for you meddling kids." Don't we all remember that line from Scooby Dooby Doo. Why did those pesky children had to interfere. Who is to say that wood animals are better in views of good versus evil, than mountain goblins, minotaurs and other black marked animals. The way I see it, all they did was playing a role of a revolutionary, stepping on a side of anarchy. Fairy-tales can get disturbing sometimes. What I resent them the most is that if they wanted to film a movie for children, why did they have to make it so violent. I get the filling like they wanted to make an universal film, for anybody to watch. If they really wanted that, why filming a fairy-tale??
