Emotional

Rating: 9/10 (10 January 2006)

Please do not confuse reviews from people who haven't read the book with ones from people who have.
Those who have read the book are more emotionally attached. I cried several times through this movie - MUCH improved on the late 80's version. Powerful, emotional, TRUE to the book except for a few stray bits.
I was thoroughly impressed. The visions I saw on the screen were very similar to those in my head as I was reading the book. The use of colors was wonderful, and the battle scenes were outstanding. I thought the CGI effects with the animals was very believable.
Thank you for giving me a chance to see this movie.
