Review by fantastyfreak

4.7 / 5

This year has been a very interesting year. This was the first year that there has been so many remakes and sequels and I can not stand it. Many movies dissapointed me very much this year. Harry Potter 4 being the biggest dissapointment because it strayed too far from the book. My friends left the theater mad at harry potter and I said to them there is still Chronicles of Narnia. They mocked me saying it will be as bad as Harry potter or most possibly worse. Ohhh! were they taken by suprise! My friends were quiet the whole movie. After it they could not stop talking about it. Everyone in the crowd clapped My reaction to the movie well! words can not describe how good this movie was. It took the book and make one of the best book adaptions i have ever seen. The new added scenes actually made the movie better in some ways than the book. I cried during Aslan's death, it was done so well. All I can say is this movie is a pure masterpiece and all I said after the movie was I badly wanted to see this movie again. Some acting was shaky like Edmund but the white witch, Susan, Aslan, Mr. Tumnus, and of course Lucy were awesome. Please all people who haven't seen it please! it is a wonderful movie and you will not be dissapointed
