Flick Pick: Chronicles Of Narnia - The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe

Chronicles Of Narnia - The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe
(Disney, 2005)

Both the first and best of the films made thus far of C.S. Lewis' long-revered children's stories, and this one is absolutely magical. Fully accessible even if you've never read a page of the books, and done so well it only highlights the shortcomings of the subsequent films in the series. If Disney had played their cards right, this would have outdone the Lord Of The Rings series, and set a new standard, not to mention raked in money like leaves in fall. As it is, enjoy this one for everything it is, which is wonderful.
