...video, every single week, from the video shop in my local town. I was obsessed with "The Lion, The Witch, And The Wardrobe" and I could never stop watching it. The tale captured my imagination and everything about it was so magical and lovely. Years later, this is still one of my all-time favourite films. BRIEF PLOT SUMMARY Peter, Susan, Edmund & Lucy are evacuees from London, and move to stay with the Professor in a large house, where Lucy ...
...the house. Here she meets Mr Tumnus, who is under instruction by The White Witch (who calls herself The Queen) to capture and bring to her any son/daughter of Adam & Eve. Mr Tumnus, however, can't capture Lucy, as they have become friends, and instead he decides to tell her all about The White Witch's cruel reign over Narnia. When Lucy goes home to tell the others, nobody believes her, but then Edmund finds himself in the Wardrobe, and meets The ...

Chronicals of Narnia

Advantages: Family Fun
Disadvantages: Can make you too cheery

...as a christmas present and the novalty value of remembering my childhood was wonderful...but watching it was even better. As it is a series rather then a film it fully tells the story and is more faithful to the books. Even though it was filmed before special effects I do not think this really impacts on the quality - as it is set in war tme the age of this series adds a certain charm to it. Not only have I enjoyed re-watching this but my my nephews ...
...real christmasy feel about it and really puts you in the festive mood. Please remember this box set includes The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe, Prince Caspian, The Voyage of the Dawn Treader and The Silver Chair. Which means four times the fun. Enjoy, family fun garenteed. ...

Review of The Chronicles Of Narnia (2005 Collector's Edition) (DVD)

Cosy, calm, and comforting

Advantages: Reminds you of childhood sunday afternoons and battenburg cake
Disadvantages: The special effects haven't aged well!

...who remember this BBC series the first time around, watching it again can be a terrifying reminder of how much we have grown up! The Chronicles of Narnia is a great story for people of any age, and even fairly young children will fail to find much that scares them in this gentle tale. It is based on the series of books by C.S. Lewis about children who enter a different world (Narnia) and their various escapades fighting evil villains, finding lost ...
...allegory, but this means that the goodies always win in the end (and the baddies often resemble a sock puppet or a drag queen). While seven books were written, only four of them were made into television programmes, and these four are all in the box set, along with an extras disc. The costumes are fun, and just playing 'spot the hedgehog' kept some of my friends amused for quite some time! The special effects, which were considered cutting edge ...

Review of The Chronicles Of Narnia (Collector's Edition) (DVD)

Fully Entertainment

Advantages: Surprising, Adventurouse, Entertaining, and good animation.
Disadvantages: Dialogues are not that much clear according to the small kids.

Harry Potter is filled with full of adventure , action and mind blowing animations. When you once start watching it you will not get up even for pee. Becuase it contains lots of surprising events which raises your hair. Interesting is that Harry Potter is a very courageouse kid and his friends really remains with them till the end. Watching this movie is really money value movie. Regarding character of the movie and the story line, its amazing. ...
...The Hobbit and a witch in “The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe”. I also think that the emphasis on magic is different than its use in the book “A Wrinkle in Time”. If you found those themes objectionable in the Harry Potter books—they are very convincing in the film. ...
