In Reply to: REVIEW: paraphrased Narnia review posted on Steve Hoffman's board... posted by Audiophilander on December 12, 2005 at 13:47:11:
The film adaptation followed the book pretty well if only because there was not a whole lot of material to work with. I agree the first 30 minutes were pretty decent. After that, it went down hill. I thought there could have been more character development. [And no chance to develop realistic battle sequences without jeopardizing the "G" rating.]I was not impressed with either the book or the movie. Harry Potter was more entertaining, but that's not saying a whole lot.
I also don't understand the "encouragement" to see this movie by devote Christians. The connection I saw was tenuous at best and I vaguely recall C.S. Lewis had no intention to introduce parallels between Christianity and the Narnia chronicles. The Chronicles are a fantasy story and nothing more; a true Christian Fundamentalists would have scoffed at the idea this was a "Christian" movie.
