“The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe” the Movie

Last night I went with a friend to see “The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe.” I will admit that I can not say if it is faithful to the book or not, since I don’t remember the book that well. Maybe after I finish up the 5 books that are on my reading list I might pick up The Conicals of Narnia and read them. I can say from what I know of C. S. Lewis, it was faithful to the message. I did enjoy the movie, and I hope they do make the other books into movies. I would recommend the movie to anyone, unless you are Polly Toynbee, or like her (where she says “Narnia represents everything that is most hateful about religion”, she seems to really hate redemption if you read her article).

All in all the movie is very good. The beginning of the movie shows the 4 kids being shipped off for their protection because of the bombings of London at the time the story takes place. This is moving (sad) and I would think it would be moving to even the hardest of hearts. I don’t want to go to deep into the movie, in case the reader here has not seen the movie and does not know the storie.
