Narnia - magic comes true!

Rating: Null/10 (10 December 2005)

I just went back from the movie. It was so crowded...just like Star Wars EP3. The lion, the witch, and the wardrobe novels were my favorite when I was in elementary school. I remembered after reading all the series of novels, I wondered why there was no one making movies (not mini TV program) for Narnia. Until now, thanks for ILM and WETA's cooperation. At last, the magic comes true! The director Andrew Adamson and all other creative crews visualize the story in novels. Basically, I think the adaption of this movie from the novel is excellent. Such as the white witch, she is just like what was in my mind while I was reading the novel. I think most readers will not be disappointed. I find it is a Disney movie and it is for kids; thus there is no blood and much violence in this movie. (Unlike the lord of the ring trilogy, it is basically for adults and it is quite violent and bloody, but Istill love it, and it is very realistic) I think I can say it is "the lord of the ring - kid edition". The movie score composed by Harry Gregson-Williams is great and touching. Special effects and Visual effects are extraordinary. They are quite realistic. Most of the sequences are just like what they were in my mind while I was a child. After seeing it, I was moved. Finally, this classical stories are on the wild screen just like the lord of the ring, Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events, and so on. I heard most other people saying that they love this movie when leaving the theater. I do really look forward to the next Narnia movies! Go see it! No matter you have read the novels or not.
