Maybe this poor blogger doesn’t watch movies every so often or maybe because it was simply good. Whatever the reason, I thoroughly enjoyed watching “The Chronicles of Narnia” at SM Megamall over the weekend. Oftentimes, I get to read the book before watching the movie but this is one instance when I now want to buy the book just because I enjoyed the movie.
Narnia is a captivating tale of treachery, ambition and greed and how righteousness rules above it all. The cinematography and special effects were simply excellent. My favorite characters in the movie were the child Lucy, the White Witch played by Tilda Swinton and all those talking animals. Of Lucy, I said to my seatmate “meron din palang foreigner na pango,” (hehe) and the White Witch was such a class act in portraying herself as a villainess that she almost looked like a rock star.
I don’t know what the movie’s rating was but I almost thought of bringing my son. It turned out there were some violent scenes. Gladly, my friend N was willing enough to accompany me to the movie screening ~ may movie companion at free dinner na, may driver pa, haha. Thanks, N!
Some excerpts from our conversations:
N (on the scene where Peter, Susan and Lucy swim together on the river on a rock of ice): Awshucks, ang lamig nyan!
Ajay: “Hindi malamig yan. Pelikula lang yan eh.”
Ajay: Naku, pag nabuhay pa uli ang patay na yan, Pinoy movie na ito.”
N: Ganun din naman sa Lord of the Rings me nabuhay na patay.
Ajay to herself: ohwell, at least ito may rationale kung bakit risen from the dead, unlike Pinoy movies na ridiculous ang dahilan ng pagkabuhay (aaargh)
N: what’s your favorite quote from the movie?
Ajay: I like the White Witch’s one-liners,especially “shave him!”
Stumble It!
Glad you liked the movie! Yes, read the book, it is a worthwhile read!
Tilda Swinton was amazing in this film. I read the book and they were pretty much the same with the film; they just added some fillers at the start of the movie.
I loved the film! I wanted to cry because it was so much better than the way I pictured the book in my head. Ang galing galing galing!
still trying to get ticket every time we want to go sold out
hmm, maybe hubs and i should reconsider… the movie earlier on didn’t appeal to me until i read your post.
What happened to your blog? I was trying to access it for about 2 days na and nothing. Di ka nagbabayad ng hosting fee no? Kidding. Glad you’re back though. Looking forward to new updates.
Glad you agree with me on this friends and for those who haven’t seen the movie… it’s a must.:wink:
Thanks for visiting Jher. Yes there was a misinterpretation in the billing that’s why I was off the air (ugh) but that has been settled already so am ready to blog again for the whole year (long story no? )
