Fabulous, Faithful Retelling

Rating: 9/10 (31 December 2005)

Welcome to Narnia. Prepare to be lost. If you don't wander around blindly in the forest, prepare to be "lost" on this virtually flawless film. Unlike other movies made from books, this film never strays from the novel. Like the fourth Harry Potter movie, this one does suffer from a feeling of scenes that are far too brief and rushed. The music is quite ordinary. Aslan's angry roar could use work. But that is all. The film gives us the ability to see C.S. Lewis' fabulous allegorical tale enacted on the screen, with incredible results. The story represents Christ's unending love for us, carried so far as to die on the cross at Calvary. Look for ways this movie, and the story, represent the different aspects of Jesus' story.
Don't miss the movie. As a bonus, Peter is REALLY CUTE!!!
