Review by emo

5.0 / 5

I thought The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe was one of the best movies I've ever seen. After reading the books, I wondered if thet'd ever make a movie for The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe. And they did! Everyone did an amazing job, especially Tilda Swinton as the White Witch. I have to say Georgie Henley nailed the part of Lucy. She's perfect for that part. I also really enjoyed the performances of Peter, Susan, and Edmund. They made Aslan look so real! Everthing was great about the movie. The battle sequences were awesome. This movie also has a good point of Christianity. In the movie, you see how Aslan dies on the Stone Table for Edmund because of his wrongs. It's like when Jesus died on the cross for our sins. I'm just in awe how great this movie is. The whole time in the movie theater my eyes were glued to the screen. I was so disappointed when it was over-I just wanted to see it over and over again! I encourage anyone who hasn't seen it yet, go see it before it's out of theaters! And get excited, because a new movie is coming out in December 2007-Prince Caspian!
