Lacking a little something!

Rating: Null/10 (12 December 2005)

Don't get me wrong I liked this film tremendously but I feel that it is possibly the only book in the series, except maybe for The Last Battle, that is actually epic enough to be made into a movie.
As for "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe." There was something about the film as a whole that was lacking. It just didn't seem as epic as films that have proceeded it. I didn't fear for the lives of the main characters like I did in the LOTR trilogy. The musical score didn't uplift me during the battle scenes, nor soothe during the more tender moments, ie the death and resurrection of Aslan.
The rest of the series, although good, for me just seems to hum along on auto pilot until the last book in the saga. I for one don't think they'll make the others unless this one does exceptionally well.
What think you?
