I thought the film was fantastic. So many critics are jaded. This story was suspenseful and reminded me of Close Encounters of the 3rd kind because you really don't get what's going on right away. The train derailment was worth the money! The young actors were also excellent!
Yes, I recommend this movie.

While it certainly was not the best film I have witnessed, the IMAX experience was impressive. The film was replete with action and keeping in mind, the genre was comic book in film, I thought it was quirky, but enjoyable flick. The main character was so unheroic that it added another twist. However, I walked out of the film at then end with a smile on my face and laughing out loud. I am sure other shoppers in the mall must have thought I was a little "touched".
Having been enchanted with the Narnia series since 6th grade, viewing this lastest movie placed my thoughts to the same place they were some 30 years ago. The movies captured the book's magic and with modern effects, it even managed to create the pictures that were once only present in my mind. Ididn't want the film to end and I was torn about momentarily leaving to grab some popcorn! If you are a C.S. Lewis fan or just enjoy a tale that will remove your from where you are now, this is a must-see. I await the Voyage of the Dawn Treader and more adventures with Reepincheep!
