Still one of my all-time favorite movies. I saw it in cinemas as a teen and loved it immediately. It's so magical and hopeful and Tilda Swinton is just brilliant ad Jadis.

Long bloody title, but a great film no doubt.

I had seen 'The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe' before but hadn't watched it for years and years, I remembered the vast majority though - it's a memorable film after all. There's a great battle scene in there, some fun characters and strong effects. It's a tad too long, but not by much.

It has a nice charm to it also, as they set up Narnia excellently. The quartet of children are very well cast, all four of them suit their roles to a T. Georgie Henley is sweet as Lucy, while William Moseley and Anna Popplewell fulfil the roles of Peter and Susan comfortably. Edmund, meanwhile, is of course annoying, but Skandar Keynes does a good job portraying him.

Elsewhere, Tilda Swinton and Liam Neeson are terrific casts as the White Witch and Aslan. Both do great, especially Swinton. James McAvoy, Ray Winstone, Michael Madsen and Rupert Everett are smart choices too.

I've, as far as I'm aware, never seen the two sequels so very much look forward to seeing what they have in store for me. They'll do well to match this first film, that's for sure.

this was good. i remembered parts from when i watched as a kid, but i don't think i ever got past the first film. i really enjoyed it, but it did feel both rushed and drawn out. i think i'd really like the books, though i'm unsure that i have the patience for that these days. the graphics hold up insanely well, and i found myself genuinely connecting with the characters. the animals especially i felt some real good emotional connection to.

Though the movie isn’t 100% perfect, it is close to it. I feel as if this is the best of the Narnia stories to tell. As well as definitely the best of the movies. The villains in the sequels have nothing

C.S. Lewis’ beloved classic fantasy tale is vividly brought to life in _The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe_. While staying at a country house four children travel through a wardrobe into a magical land full of talking animals and are told that they are the prophesied ones who will end the tyrannical reign of the White Witch. The novel has been adapted several times before, however this is the first version to incorporate CGI, and it really adds a new dimension that opens up the doors of imagination. Some of the CGI is a little rough, but overall it’s used to spectacular effect; delivering a fresh, new creative fantasy world and impressive battles sequence, the likes of which have never been seen before. Additionally, Tilda Swinton gives a brilliant performance as the White Witch, and Liam Neeson is magnificent as Aslan. Nearly every character is captured perfectly, and the film’s tone conveys the perfect mixture of terror and adventure, with some lighthearted humor added in. _The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe_ is a fantastic adventure and a wonderful adaptation of C.S. Lewis’ seminal work.
