compared to most movies based off of books this is like a miracle. eragon, a series of unfortunate events, narnia (was ok but lacked the magic the books had) and so many others that have tried and failed.

this movie actually feels like the book. and is the first movie based on a book where i feel the casting compared to the book couldnt get any better. i'm very happy with this film. i don't understand how anyone couldn't like it.
