Review by Josh

4.3 / 5

I really loved this movie especially because it was from a very well known book, and that would make kids want to read the next parts to it, before they hit the big screen. Another thing i liked is how well they captured the "Narnia" feel, the color, the costumes, and the actors, which were casted very well. In all this movie specially tops the collection made before them, i also give them credit for having it turn out big, a very articulate, artistic, and fantasy movie like this could of turned up to be a big flop, but they pulled it off, great job!
