Summary:
Edmund (Skandar Keynes), Lucy (Georgie Henley), Peter (William Moseley), and Susan (Anna Popplewell) are all siblings. They were sent away from their home in London to live with a professor in order to ensure their safety during World War II. When the youngest of the four siblings, Lucy, finds a magical wardrobe, their previously boring life turned into adventure. The wardrobe led the four children to a secret world called Narnia. They meet some very nice species, such as fauns and beavers, but they also run into not so nice species. The white witch rules Narnia and has enchanted the place so that it is always winter but never Christmas. The children spend their time in Narnia fighting along side with Aslan, who is the only one powerful enough to stop the white witch. Aslan is the god figure of Narnia, he is also a majestic lion.
My Thoughts:
I gave this film an 82% because I feel that it is appropriate for all genders of all ages. I also think that it is filled with a good amount of fantasy. It does not give the story away too early but it is easy to follow. I also enjoy the fact that it is a series. With a series, it allows the viewers to get into the film without having to feel sad when the film ended because they know there will be another one. With a series, there is always renewed excitement. I feel like overall, this film was an accurate representation of C.S. Lewis' book Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe.

From creating this movie critique, I was learned about how a movie critique was made. I also learned about the things people include in movie critiques. I enjoyed watching The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe in a different way than I have before. Instead of watching it for fun, I was paying attention to detail and observing how the movie was put together.
This movie critique was created for anyone who wants to see the movie but isn't sure if it is a good representation of the movie or not. It would also be good for anyone who hasn't read the book but wanted to see the movie because I gave a summary of the movie.
I, Samantha Bogdanovich, created a movie critique because I thought it would be a good idea to talk about the movie that was based off of the book I read for this assignment.
I used the book and the movie of Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe as my sources for this genre. I also used a review off of rottentomatoes.com for the information about the film and an example of a movie critique.
I feel that with these sources, I was able to successfully create a movie critique for anyone looking for an opinion about the film. I think that this would be beneficial for any age to read if they were thinking about seeing the film for themselves.
