Thankfully, unlike the moron who wrote the review for the 'Addict' magazine (given away free in Odeon Cinemas), the film makers knew that the book was written by C.S Lewis and not Lewis Carrol! Also thankfully, they stayed faithful to the story and didn't feel the need to move it to America or to attempt to modernise it - an earlier aborted attempt to make the film did just that and had Edmund asking for Cheeseburger instead of Turkish Delight.
The film was reasonably well acted and the animals voices seemed well chosen, especially Ray Winstone as Mr Beaver and Liam Neeson as a suitably majestic Aslan. The film was a bit slow starting but worth watching if you liked the books. Hopefully they'll continue to make the other 6 in the series.
