Aslan Rules by Afro Thunder

The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe. I found only one thing wrong with the movie, and that was the witch’s acting. I found her dramatic arm movement and bad facial expressions were annoying. For example, when the lion tackled her, she looked at him as if they were about to make love, and then he bites her head off; wrong kind of face for the wrong moment in time. Now, everything else was really good; the graphics, the character development, the betrayal of a sibling, then the acceptance of a traitor, the beaver’s comical antics, and above all, the major fight scene in the end. While the entire fight was enjoyable and entertaining, I was a little confused as to why they put a bunch of arches on top of a hill, but only fired one flaming arrow, which didn’t do much of anything except make the witch blow it out. An army of archers is meant to be used, not squandered. Other than that, the whole movie was great and very enjoyable. I give it a 5 out of 5.

A man with crazy Kung-Fu abilities and even crazier hair. But please, don't confuse yourself into thinking he's Jewish, or Arabian, or anything other than a curly-haired, half white, half mexican ninja. He also gives the whole low-down on games and movies, but avoids reviewing comics (he's loves 'em, but can't tell you what he thinks of 'em).
