I have always loved C.S. Lewis (pictured left) and I'm delighted his The Chronicles of Narnia
But anyway, the people I know who've seen it have liked it very much.
Here are a couple of other opinions.
Roger Ebert, Chicago film critic, appears to have liked it quite a bit.
And Rev. Paul McCain appears to have loved it.
I'm jealous. I want to see it right now. (sigh)

I've never been a huge Narnia fan, but I found the movie very enjoyable.
And we ALWAYS get to the stadium-seat theater really early. We have to be among the first in the auditorium. There are only about three rows in which the middle five seats are just perfect for my kids and me. Anywhere else just won't do.
Great film! The special effects were Awesome, esply Aslan! I think this is going to be around for a few weeks, hopefully at #1
I thought it was excellent too. I went in cringing, thinking they could only screw it up, but I was very pleased. I would bet there will be another. I think one of the other books included the same four children. They'll have to move fast though--I read that the kid who played Edward has already grown several inches since they filmed this one.
Let me just add that it's a good time to be a fantasy fan--what with the Lord of the Rings series, the Harry Potter series (and the last film the best one yet), and the Narnia series all being made, and made well.
The only weird thing about the Narnia movie is that there is no blood. Anywhere. Even when they fight and pull a sword out of someone. I would guess it's to keep the rating at PG. Wonder if they'll do a director's cut for dvd. Even without it though, the fight scenes are very good. The first clash when they head for each other is quite a crash.
Who cares about a stupid seat just go and see it before it goes out of the cinema, it's great!!
