The Excellence of CoN

Rating: 10/10 (11 December 2005)

The Chronicles of Narnia was fantastic! I am a big fantasy book fan. When I read the books, I thought they were wonderfully written, with vivid imagery and made a wonderful story. When I heard that Hollywood was making a movie of it, I as a bit uneasy. I love Harry Potter too, and after I saw the third and fourth movies and saw how they butchered the story, I wasn't sure if I wanted Hollywood to make a movie out of another wonderful fantasy novel. Then I saw the movie. The Chronicles of Narnia movie was the book reincarnate; it was perfect. None of the story was changed too dramatically and there weren't a lot of superfluous additions. Personally, I loved The Lion, the Witch, and The Wardrobe and can't wait for The Horse and His Boy.
