SubscribeI have four words to say: “That movie is awesome!” Here are some things I really like about the movie The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe:
- Follows the book very closely.
- The beavers in the movie add a great sense of humor to the story.
- Really good music.
- Good acting especially by the actor playing Lucy and by the actor playing Jadis (the White Witch).
- Beautiful Narnian environment.
- Nice visual touches here and there that really add to the story.
- Great visual effects; computer-generated characters are quite realistic.
After seeing the movie, I’ve decided that I would really like to read the Chronicles of Narnia books again. I also left feeling excited to see the next movie, Prince Caspian.
I think that if there are any noteworthy flaws in the movie, it would be flaws of omission; that is, things that could have been done to make the movie better.
But despite that, I think this movie is excellent! It’s one of the best movies I’ve seen. I’d probably give this movie 4.5 out of 5 stars.
Rating: 4.5 Stars

^^^ I’m glad to hear this! I would always encourage any rereading of the Chronicles of Narnia.

So would I, definitely. I read all of the books many years ago (five years, maybe?), and so I have forgotten a lot. However, I remember a considerable amount of “The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe” (obviously) and “The Magician’s Nephew” (one of my favorites). But for the other five, I typically just remember what the basic storylines are.
