The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe

A faithful and honest rendition of the C. S. Lewis classic. Special props go to Georgie Henley, who plays Lucy Pevensie--she is adorable and delightful in the story's central role. Some of the Britishness might confuse American viewers, but it's actually a positive that they stuck to their guns and left that stuff in--more power to the filmmakers for remaining true to author and the story's origins. And no, the Christian stuff, as in the books, does not pound you over the head. Bottom line: if they want to make the whole series, I'm in.
