B+
"Magical images, a compelling story and solid acting."  Laramie Movie Scope  Robert Roten

A-
"I was less than thrilled with the prospect, after seeing the film's mediocre trailer, of spending two plus hours with "The Chronicles of Narnia." But, boy, am I glad I did."  Reeling Reviews  Robin Clifford

4/4
"A wonderful excursion that's alive with the imagination of fantasy literature and in tune with the beating heart of family cinema."  Charlotte Weekly  Sean O'Connell

"The story never quite lives up to the grandeur of the visuals, and the narrative tends to drag, especially in the first half."  ESplatter  Steve Biodrowski

B+
"One of the most magical effects… isn't rippling computer-generated fur, ice castles, or battle scenes. It's the wide-eyed wonder and delight on the face of little Lucy Pevensie (Georgie Henley) as she passes beyond the wardrobe…"  Decent Films Guide  Steven D. Greydanus

7/10
"It's allegorical and imaginative, although literary subtlety is lost to the patently obvious."  Modamag.com  Susan Granger

2.5/4
"Populated with talking beavers and mythological creatures that, cast in a Christian parable, should probably watch their asses."  Film Freak Central  Walter Chaw
