Not true enough.

Rating: 5/10 (13 August 2007)

I have love "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe" since childhood, reading this particular book over 10 times. I just finished it again today and watched this movie again. Unfortunately, this film relies on fabricated tension instead of the tension still built into the book, and it makes for a very weak story that never really builds to the emotional climax the book delivers. Some tense words from the book are simply removed from this movie, or re-fashioned in the name of excitement. The movie adds tension that simply doesn't exist in the book. It hurts to say that it this is a clear attempt to follow in the LOTR greatness and simply comes up short.
