Lion, Witch, and the Wardrobe

[Ihach]

this was definitely a sweet movie once it got going, i especially liked the witch's wolf secret police

I just watched it. Since I haven't jumped into the books at all yet, it seemed ok. Tilda was awesome as the witch. The animals were actually a bit surprising in quality. They did an awesome job with the creatures. Hell, when the thought of half-man half-animal creatures came up I was a bit scared that Kevin Sorbo would run out into the scene with a half-hearted guise of a reverse filming effect of him dancing with a leprechaun.

I laughed when they gave Peter a Neo-moment and had the subtle techno music at the beginning of the movie.

piece of shit.

My problem with it was that there was no dramatic buildup on a character level. Not as far as the central characters are concerned, anyway. Peter just kinda drifts through the story, and when he has to rise to the occasion, he just kinda does. There is no Gethsemane, no inner demons to fight, no motivation. The guy is suposed to be our point of view into this whole story and the thing that ties the main plot together, and he's barely visible. Which maybe works for younger boys, they often like to have a bland central character they can project themselves into anyway, but gave me no reason to care.

The Lucy kid was awesome, though.

absolute fucking shite.

I enjoyed it enough to go watch it again with the family,.

Liam Neeson is god. He been a Jedi, a ninja, a knight, a Nazi and now Christ in "Passion of the Aslan."
