The Chronicles of Narnia

Went to see this tonight, so here's my review: 4 annoying posh English kids find a world called Narnia at the back of the wardrobe, they fight a war with a lion and some beavers against some chick who was in Lord of the Rings. They win and make it home in time for tea and medals.

The kids in this film really really annoyed me. The youngest girl looked like a cross between Eddie Izzard and Pink (although those two are the same person anyway - I reckon) The older girl looked like she had had colegen (sp?) implants in her lips already, and the two lads looked like a right pair of ponces

I'd give it about 4 out of 10, its no Harry Potter and certainly its no Lord of the Rings.

Note to Americans: We all really do all talk like that (thats why y'all think Im Australian) and we all really do live in castles.

Other footnote: Aparently CS Lewis was visiting his mate in Malvern one winter (a bit like Id visit mike for a pint) and it was snowing and he saw the lamps on that road in Malvern Wells, which gave him the inspiration for the light in the snowing forest in Narnia, so there you go.
