Narnia....

I saw Narnia tonight.

Could a movie possibly live up to my expectations, especially since these books have held a close place to my heart for over 20 years?

There were scenes in the movie that transcended my own expectations....scenes that made my cry....scenes that sent a shiver down my spine....scenes that quite didn't live up to the imagination that I had....scenes that captured the nuances that the books have....etc., etc.

I will give a full, detailed review of the movie tomorrow.

But I will tell you that it was a great movie....one I will see again. But in the end, like any masterpiece, nothing will come close to capturing what my imagination has created over all these years. That is not a knock against the movie, but rather a tribute to the master, C.S. Lewis

More to come tomorrow....

My wife and I saw Narnia this weekend as well. Like you I was inspired by some of the special effects and the places I was touched by in the book. I was interested in the places where "hollywood" would take liberties and found that to be few. I look forward to reading your detailed comments!
