Very excellent movie! We were pleasantly surprised that it was, for the most part, very true to the book. Beautiful imagery! The only drawback in my opinion, was that there was much more violence than was expected. My 10 yr old daughter enjoyed it much less because of all the killings during the battle scenes. Thankfully though, as far as the violence went, there was no blood shown. Overall our family thoroughly enjoyed this movie...we can't wait for the Magicians Nephew!
