Nice to see an accurate movie.

Rating: 10/10 (26 September 2006)

After the BBC and PBS put out a nice, but woefully non-technical, theatrical edition of the chronicles, this movie is a breath of fresh air. If Clive Staples were alive today I think he would applaud the movie. Though there were two divergences from the original book, everything else seems to be covered. In a day and age when flow is more important than accuracy, Disney has surprised me. Still reading this book set to your children, I feel, is as essential as The Hobbit, and The Ring Trilogy by JRR Tolkien. I sincerely hope that Disney decides to make a movie on the rest of the 6 books in the Chronicles of Narnia. My daughter really enjoyed the movie too, but as a parent I would definitely wait until the child is over 6 to see the movie as there are some scary parts for anyone younger and some of it is rather difficult to understand for a younger child. All in all though a thoroughly enjoyable movie.
