The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe

66Worth an evening.

The traitor and the willing death are the story. The battle is the adaptation. Worth an evening.

The review

The wardrobe is famous. The scene that justifies the fame is a boy who sold his siblings for candy, and a lion who does not pretend the selling was small, and who goes to the table anyway. That is a harder mercy than a magic door. The film, amid a decade of chosen ones, remembers that the chosen one can be the traitor.

The battle is larger and louder than it needs to be. Let it be loud and then be quiet at the table. A family can watch this together. Ask who was sold, and who went in his place, and do not accept 'the magic lion' as the whole answer.

Live Historic number 66. Yours can differ.

The glance

Industry is the thin one.

Does anyone here do a real job, and does that job matter?

This phone is set for a grown person, just me. Change the ages.

Consider this

Spirited Away

78 instead of 66

Spirited Away is still a fantasy film, and it scores 78 instead of 66. What you gain is industry: She earns the rescue by labor.

The eight

5
Industry
They are evacuees first, then kings. The ordinary displacement is the true start.
8
Household
Brothers and sisters fail each other and come back. The house is the four of them.

Piety
A willing death in a traitor's place is the creed, and the film does not hide it.
7
Courage
The youngest goes to the lion when the witch's food was easier.

Republic
A country under a false queen. The public is a wood that has been afraid for years.

Temperance
The battle is bigger than the book needed. The stone table is still the center.

Truth
It tells the truth that a traitor is not excused, and is still not abandoned.

ParaNorman

66Worth an evening.

Fear faced by understanding, not by a spear. Good for a child who can take a ghost.

The review

Norman is bullied for a gift that is mostly the willingness to hear. The town prefers a mob and a story about a witch. The film's turn, that the cursed child was a frightened child and the curse was the town's, is the right turn. It does not ask you to pretend the dead are cute from the first minute. It asks you to stop the torch.

Some of the jokes are ruder than the fable needs. The fable holds. A house can watch it near Halloween and come out less eager to chant at the odd boy. That is a rare result for a cartoon with zombies.
