| The Chronicles of Narnia |
I know many of you will tune into my blog today to see comments on "The Chronicles of Narnia" (If not, just assuage my ego). I'll spare you a detailed review to be sensitive to the fact that many of you want the movie experience to be brand new.
On a cinematic scale of 1 to 10: 1 being that horrible movie that BJ brought home about the guy in West Virginia that worshipped Elvis, and 10 being "The Lord of the Rings" trilogy, I'd give "Narnia" a 9.
But the plot is the "greatest story ever told". The movie is a magnificent worship experience! You will come out wanting to sing from the highest places. Awe-inspiring.
Warning: If you haven't read the book by C. S. Lewis, the following will be a plot spoiler:
The part of the movie that moved me the most was after Aslan and the White Witch confer about the future of Edmund. Aslan and the witch step out of the tent while everyone is watching with bated breath. Aslan announces to the gathered crowd that the witch has denied her claim on Edmund's life. However, the witch is still gloating about something. She peers over her shoulder while being escorted out of Aslan's presence and says, "How do I know I can trust you?" Aslan only answers with a tremendous roar! The White Witch slinks away.
I was moved to tears.
Worthy is the Lion of Judah! |
