| New York Daily NewsElizabeth WeitzmanA generation-spanning journey that feels both comfortingly familiar and excitingly original. |
| Christianity TodayJeffrey OverstreetThis movie cannot be dismissed, like preachy 'Christian films,' as religious propaganda. ... It is best enjoyed as a symphonic and delightful fantasy. |
| The Globe and Mail (Toronto)Rick GroenThe picture goes exactly where the prose does, enticing all of us, kids and adults and atheists and believers alike, down below the brittle surface of our cold logic and into a richer world of imaginative wonder. |
| Blunt ReviewEmily BluntNarnia is a visually stunning, and very touching film for the family. |
| Combustible CelluloidJeffrey M. AndersonFeels like a retread of the Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings films without a stitch of personality. |
| San Francisco ChronicleMick LaSalleA movie of intelligence and power, of beauty, universality and largeness of spirit. |
| Baltimore SunMichael SragowPlunges into an imaginative landscape as large as all creation - and never slackens its barreling pace or shrinks its panoramic scope. |
| Richmond Times-DispatchMike WardPat Robertson will clearly be surfing Fandango. |
| Contra Costa TimesRandy MyersThe Chronicles of Narnia so vividly captures the magic of the book that Harry Potter might just want to watch his back. |
