The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe (2005)
"The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe," a spectacular live-action/CGI motion picture adaptation of C.S. Lewis' beloved literary classic. Lewis' timeless adventure follows the exploits of the four Pevensie siblings - Lucy, Edmund, Susan and Peter - in World War II England who enter the world of Narnia through a magical wardrobe while playing a game of 'hide-and-seek' in the rural country home of an elderly professor. Once there, the children discover a charming, peaceful land inhabited by talking beasts, dwarfs, fauns, centaurs and giants that has become a world cursed to eternal winter by the evil White Witch, Jadis.

While I really liked the imagery of this film, and having read the book with my daughter before going to see it on the screen, and believe that the filmmakers did a good job in visually making the movie look like the book, what was missing from it was the unimaginable things that a child can see in their mind when reading...

Perhaps expectations were unfairly affected by the generalized anxiety induced by -- gasp! -- no more Lord of the Rings. It's true, this film isn't LOTR.

Ok so first off, I read the C.S. Lewis Narnia series a multitude of times when I was a kid and know the story like the back of my hand. This and the fact that the good ole BBC made countless mini-series based on this book lead me to be very unimpressed with Hollywood's attempt.
It seemed to me that the movie was grasping...
