← All reviews of The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe (2005)

Review by Rebecca a.

5.0 / 5

Narnia is, by far, one of the greatest movies I have seen. It matches LOTR in style and beauty, which is perfect because Tolkien and Lewis were friends. I know this movie could not have been better made or followed the book more exactly. It left me breathless and amazed!! This movie deserves to be with the few other greatest movies and I hope that the other Chronicles of Narnia books will be made into movies just as breathtaking!!
