Couldn't disagree with you more.

I thought the casting of non-movie star type kids (especially Lucy with her bad teeth) was very refreshing. It also made an important statement consistent with the theme of the movie--that what happened to them could have happened to anyone.

The point of the intro was to set up the relationship/conflicts between the kids.

I personally thought the funniest moment of the movie occurred in England, when Edmund hit the ball through the professor's window, and the camera showed Lucy reacting with mingled horror and glee.

I didn't think that this was the greatest movie ever made. There were parts of it that could have been improved significantly. But it was reasonably entertaining. My kids enjoyed it.

My favorite reviewer's comment:

"Lucy's wondrously expressive smile is an absolute triumph of British desntistry." :^D

... Susan is beautiful, and will grow up to be quite the heart-breaker, but then her character actually was supposed to be very pretty, unlike Lucy.

We did the family night last evening and went to see Narnia...I have to say I was thoroughly entertained and really was impressed. Was it Phenomenal...no,but it certainly was finally worth the money I spent to get in vs other crap I've had to take the kids to lately.....

I also found the young actors fresh and actually very good. I recommend it for 2 hours of enjoyment.
