Review by Hansani perera

By Hansani perera · January 12, 2006 · Sri Lanka No spoilers

4.9 / 5

My name is Hansani perera, and i'm a year old girl from sri lanka. i've not read the c.s. Lewis' books before, atleast not much, when one day my dad bought me the chronicles of narnia -the lion, the witch and the wardrobe DVD.
If i want to express my feelings over it in a simple way I FELL IN LOVE WITH IT!!! Totally!
the acting of the 2 sons of adam and the 2 daughters of eve were perfect, and the lion looked so real! my favorite scene, of course is the final battle. i must congratulate the directors who made it because it was so perfect.
i really loved it. thanks.
