Review by Lucy Pevensie Look-Alike

4.8 / 5

Oh my God! This was such an excellent movie! I had never read the books before this...so I didn't really know what it was going to be about. The acting was excellent! I love William and Georgie is sooo cute! Aslan was especially great...he was so majestic looking and Liam Neeson was the perfect person for his voice. James McAvoy did a very good job too! He sure did scare Georgie...hahaha...that would have to be my favourite scene too (when Lucy meets Mr. Tumnus). But I'd have to say that my most favourite character of all of them is definitely Georgie. She played the excitement and wonder of a nine year old so well...and they did a great job on her 1940's outfits, well, with all of them actually. This is actually...better than The Lord of The Rings, which I fell asleep during...if Narnia were actually real though...I'd definitely try to find a way into it! But I guess that the Narnia video game will have to be close enough!!!
