Ahh I remember in school days, when i was in first school they showed this to us, but it was the original one which was called The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. Chronicles of Narnia is the same as The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe but it has just been recreated again. When i watched The Chronicles of Narnia i was quite hesitant and thought it would not be as good as the original, but i actually found it to be quite good and enjoyed it alot. Its not just a movie for kids in case many may think that, its in fact for all age groups, just like Harry Potter is. If you haven't watched it yet then you must do, and also watch the sequel Prince Caspian which was released in 2008. |

I usually enjoy reading the original book rather than watching the movie based on it .. but chronicles of Narnia is the exception to that ... The book except for the first one (The Lion the witch and the wardrobe)does not make a very interesting read ... but the theme is great and i like Reepicheep and Azlan |

I love the Narnia books, and I was looking forward to the release of the first movie with great impatience (it took a looooong time, too). Overall, I was not disappointed, they did a good job. I expected Aslan to be more magnificent though. The second movie is also quite good. I hope we don't have to wait too long for the third one and the rest!

I have watched Narnia and it was really nice. I have only seen the first part last week. I watched it with my kids and they really enjoyed it. Does it have part 2 or part 3?

| I've never seen this movie. My little brother is 10 and he's always making references to it. It sounds pretty interesting, however, I'm not sure if it's my thing. Then again, I didn't think I'd like Twilight and I did... so .. you never know I guess |
