Pretty Good

Rating: 7/10 (19 December 2005)

I have not yet read the books, but my husband really wanted to see the movie so we went last night. I thought the movie was pretty OK. It seemed to drag a bit in the beginning, but once the kids arrived in Narnia, the action picked up over the last half or so of the movie. I thought the boy who played Peter was very good, and has the look of a young Heath Ledger. All the actors where very good, with the White Witch being super. I thought that the animation was good, although I had seen a "Making of" special on TV, so I knew where the animation was. I have purchased the complete Chronicles of Narnia and am looking forward to reading them all before the next movie, hinted at, comes out.
