Not bad...

Rating: 7/10 (7 December 2005)

Pretty good movie...very faithful to the book with a few minor exceptions. I'm a little worried about how the digital effects will look 5 years down the road...as I am with all movies to rely heavily on digital effects. I was very impressed with the child actors who don't have a lot of experience in other films or TV shows. As I was watching the film I could easily see how a child place himself right into the Narnia universe while playing at home...and how easily I could have if this movie came out when I was the target age. The movie does stand alone without sequels, much like the original Star Wars did. However, just like Star Wars, sequels are inevitably going to happen. Maybe even a prequel. Who knows?
