Absolutely amazing and powerful

Rating: 10/10 (9 December 2005)

This movie was beyond excellent. I cannot believe how incredibly amazing it was. I cannot wait for the next movie to come out. I have read the books since I was five or six years old. I love these books and this movie was amazingly true to the story. The changes made were effective and did not take away from the story. I am not afraid to admit that I cried at the beginning of the movie, and bawled as Aslan willingly and meekly walked to his death. I also cried as Peter and his army charged against the White Witch. This movie was so powerful. The story is an allegory of the Crucifixion story, with Aslan representing Christ. The children in particular Peter and Lucy were incredible and very convincing. I loved the beavers which looked so real it was amazing. The casting of Liam Leeson as the voice of Aslan was brilliant. Weta and ILM strike again the props, special effects and costumes were beyond description. I encourage all to see this film, but if you have any understanding of the Easter Story bring tissues because you will need them.
