5.0 / 5

O WOW!!!! That movie is Sooo awesome!!! I love it so much!!! I've read the books 3 times now and this movie brings them to life! I loved all the characters! Especially Tumnus! The acting was superb! I wish I could give it 6 points! Everything was very well done. It stayed as close to the books as I wanted it to. I am so happy that the Christian elements were not lost. Aslan was perfect! At first I thought that it would take me some time to get used to his voice but it didn't, Liam Neeson did a wonderful job! I've seen it two times now and I want to see it at least two more times!
For Narnia, and for Aslan!
