I liked the first one a lot. The second was very different from the book, but I guess if you look at it as JUST a movie rather than comparing it to the book, then it was good. For someone who hasn't read the books, I don't know which movie they'd like best.

Books are ALWAYS better than the movie.

This one completely changed a lot of major plot points. It was a little disappointing. It's hard to look at the movie separate from the book and decide if it was good or not. I keep thinking, "but it wasn't right!" lol

That's the truth! But, the Lord of the Ring series of movies were excellent.
I read the book so long ago, I barely remember it.

We saw the movie saturday & really enjoyed it. I own the books, but have yet to read them; so there was no comparison for me. My husband likes to see the movie first & then read the book, his imagination is lacking so the movie helps him picture the characters. I thought the first one was pretty true to the book. I had read the lion the witch & the wardrobe a long time ago. I also liked the pace at which the movie moved. I didn't feel like i had been sitting there for 2.5 hours.
