The best screen adaptation of a novel yet

Rating: 10/10 (9 December 2005)

I recently purchased the unabridged Chronicles of Narnia and began reading them to re-familiarize myself with a tale I hadn't heard in well over 20 years.
I eagerly read through to the end of 3rd book (A Horse and His Boy), and reviewed The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe before going to watch the movie tonight.
I was absolutely amazed at how accurate and visually descriptive the movie was of the book. There was almost nothing left out of the movie from the book, and only a very little added. Except for the embellishment of a couple action scenes (which were extremely well done and very well gouged to the Narnian world), most additions were only to keep the pace quick enough to keep the average movie watcher interested.
The only problem I had with the screen version, occurs at the very end, but its only a slight omission of what amounts to one paragraph in the book, (I was hoping the movie might have detailed this point). Maybe the sequels will add fill in more gaps later ;-).
10 Stars all the way!
