Brilliant Faithful Adaptation

Rating: 10/10 (10 December 2005)

I saw the film on the day it came out as I love the books and was quite looking forward to it, and boy I was not disappointed. The cast, special effects and direction were spot one of the best films of the year. The stand out moments would have to be Tilda Swinton as the white witch giving a performance which is the epitome of evil and of course Aslan whoever thought of casting Liam Neeson as Aslan needs to be given a medal. Lastly Rupert Everett as the fox expanded from the book but still a great character. All in all a great film for all ages even though not for the really young however. Still released at precisely the right time (christmas, should be destined to become a classic in years to come and quite right too.
