I to have the whole series Chronicles of Narnia permenantly engrained in my childhood memories. From when I was too young to read and my parents reading it to me, to the final books that I could read to myself.
When the movie started, all I could think to myself that it was that these memories I have are now coming to life. I thought the movie was beautiful. I too was afraid when the disney sign came up at the beginning (I didn't go to the movie knowing this). But I was pleasanly surprised. For sure it is a family movie. But I thought they brought the more brutal parts of the story out as well.
C.S. Lewis's son gave it a nod, that gave me a good feeling about it,.
