DVD Synopsis

Four siblings -- Edmund (Skandar Keynes), Lucy (Georgie Henley), Peter (William Moseley), and Susan (Anna Popplewell) -- are sent from their London home to the country estate of an eccentric professor in order to ensure their safety during World War II. The house is very dull, except for a large, ornate wardrobe discovered by young Lucy during a game of hide-and-seek. Venturing inside of it in the hopes of finding a hiding place, Lucy is transported to a snowy alternate universe: a magical world called Narnia. The land is populated by talking animals and ruled over by the benevolent lion god Aslan (voiced by Liam Neeson), but sadly, the world is also in a state of perpetual winter. The white witch Jadis (Tilda Swinton), lustful for power and governed by narcissism, has cursed Narnia with a tyrannical decree that it will always be winter but never Christmas. Now, the children must fight alongside Aslan for the salvation of Narnia, but one of them, seduced by the charisma of the white witch, may choose to fight on the wrong side. ~ Cammila Albertson, All Movie Guide

I loved this movie due to it's similarity to the book. I really like the main characters and the story of Narnia is explained well in a very evenly worked movie. I wish I read the books when I was a child instead of sharing them with my grand daughter now. The scenery and effects are great in the movie.

Very creative action-drama with children actors in mature themes of understanding overcoming temptation, rising above stiff opposition and dealing with death. Very beautiful, feel-good movie. Similar to the book and a very satisfactory interpretation with a convincing selection of actors. Definitely a movie to watch time and again.
