5.0 / 5

There is not much to say about this movie-it just truly blew me away!
My parents had always encouraged me to read the Chronicles of Narnia series, but for some reason, they never truly drew my attention. Whenever the movie came out, I seemed somewhat interested, but again, I was not totally drawn in by it.
But, this Christmas I received the Special Edition DVD as a gift, and I finally decided to read LWW. Then, once I saw the movie, I was truly sucked in to the magical world of Narnia!
Everything about the movie was amazing. Andrew Adamson truly captured the image I had pictured Narnia to be. I definitely give it 2 thumbs up!
