Review by swanwhite

4.7 / 5

In my opinion it is the best movie ever. I have always been a big fan of the books. for the most part it was true to the book. The acting was very good especialy lucy. I thought it was unessacary to have the war scenes at the begining and some other places the screenplay could have been better. Most of my problems with it are probably because everyone imagines it differently. The music was beutiful. I really like the costumes especial the dresses that Susan and Lucy get at Aslans camp. All in all it was amazing especially contrasted with the B.B.C. version.
