Breathtaking

Rating: 10/10 (9 October 2013)

No words can describe how incredible this movie is. I read the books first and fell in love with them. I was worried that the movies would not capture the essence of them, but I couldn't have been more incorrect. Wow. If you are a lover of fantasy, by all means see this movie immediately. If you are not a lover of fantasy, still see this movie immediately. The acting is incredible, as is the story, scenery, characters, and dialogue. I myself am not a huge fan of the fantasy genre, but this movie is the single film that got me interested in movies. There are many characters in this movie, but they are all memorable and interesting. Some people criticize the film for having a slow exposition, but the establishment of the world in which it takes place is part of what makes it so awe- inspiring and believable. I can not recommend this movie enough.
