The books and movie are aimed at a very young audience. Unless one is a child, has children or are looking for validation in the underlying Christian themes, they might find it a little thin on plot,character development and believability. I don't define the word "sux" as hate, if you do, that's your opinion and your entitled to it. If it helps, I was disappointed in the film.

Excellent assessment of the film. I liked it, but not much. I've seen far better films with much more depth. I hoped for more but, in fact, the underlying story for all of its Christian allegory is somewhat childish. Santa Claus!!? Puh-lease. Sure, the Chronicles are great works of literature for they must have been meant for children as they really don't appeal much to me. However, my children LOVE the books and the film and I strongly encourage them in this respect.

St. Nicholas of Myra is not amused.
