I never ever took to the Lord of the Rings films or books as a kid, or when i got older. I dont know why I just couldnt. But tonight I sat and watched the beginning of the Narnia Chronicles and was stunned by what a great film it was. I read the book as a kid and very rarely does a film ever conjur up those pictures you had in your mind when you read it. This film does. It totally sucked me into the magical fantasy that it is and has shot right into my top ten best ever films. It is brilliantly put together, totally summing up the atmosphere of the novel while at the same time being completely accesible and enjoyable. I would actually recommend it as a film to adults rather than children, because as an escape from the real world that adults live in it fits the bill, no questions. Watch with an open mind and you’ll totally love it.
