Well even after seeing the film, I am still left to wonder what the big controversy is all about.
I
had never read the book series that New Line Cinema is hoping to be
the next Harry Potter and if the film is an indication of what is to
come. I am not even sure that i want to see part 2 nor 3, if they ever
get made.
I could somewhat see why the Catholic League is
protesting this film, but in the end its a lot to do about not a really
good film.
For those who have no ideal about the film or
anything about it please click on to this link for a better
understanding, but please be wary this is a heavy spoiler preview also.
Now what I liked about the film, The casting of Sam Elliott as
Lee Scoresby was exactly what the role required. When you see him in
the film, you soon realize that he is a lot more that what he seems at
first.
The casting of Ian McKellen as the voice of Iorek
Byrnison, as an armored bear. Now I had no idea what a bear would do
with some serious armor protection, but with the voice of Sir Ian, you
believe that he will protect the hero of the film.
Now I
realize that this film is part 1 of a 3 part film, but the first one
should have been so much better that what we were given. I had said
earlier that I had not read any of the books yet but even I could tell
that something just was not right nor was it making sense in the way
that it was told in the movie, it just seemed like way too many holes
were in this film. It looks about 40-60 minutes too short.
From
what I could tell if you are a huge fan of the book then do not see
the film at all, you will leave the movie palace, very angry. If you
have young children (10 years old and up) then this looks like it would
be a good film for them to see.
For the parents, it will leave
you frustrated. I can see a good film in this film, but all we get in
another mess by the end of the day.
