Synopsis

This lavish set includes an all-new, extended edition of the film. Director Andrew Adamson (SHREK) gives a new dimension to C.S. Lewis's enchanting story with this long-awaited Disney adaptation. As the story begins, a group of child evacuees, Edmond, Susan and Peter are packed off to stay at a professor’s house in the country. Away from war-torn London and under the care of a strict housekeeper, they are instructed to stick to themselves and stay out of trouble. But when an innocent game of hide-and-seek leads young Lucy to a spare room containing a large wardrobe, she discovers something that will change their lives forever. Inside the wardrobe there is a world frosted with ice and filled with magical beings. Known as Narnia, the land is stuck in eternal winter at the hands of a cruel White Witch.

4.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful but not very extended, 22 Nov 2006
By Melissa Garrett "xenutia" (East Sussex, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
While the packaging is possibly the most exquisite to date and the bonus materials are very good value, I couldn't help but feel that this is more of a 'Special Edition' than an 'Extended Edition'. The film itself has next to no additional material - I haven't clocked it but I think it was about five minutes, none of which added to the story at all. Most of the additional material consisted of extended camera shots of landscapes and a small section during the Battle of Beruna. If you are interested in Collector's items and want all the Behind-the-Scenes magic, then this set is a good buy. However if you were only considering it for the extended movie, I don't think this set is for you.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good, but not as extended as I would have liked!, 11 Dec 2006
By jdennis_99 (Nottingham, England) - See all my reviews
When I heard that there was going to be an extended version of LWW, I was very excited, especially being a big fan of the Lord of the Rings extended editions, which added considerably more to the films, and brought them closer to the spirit of the books. I was hoping the same would follow for LWW, but my wishes were only partially satisfied.

There have been various reports that the film is extended by half an hour. Not so - I think they've managed to squeeze in another 10 minutes or so. Most of this 10 minutes consists of wider establishment shots, some of which are worthwhile, but some of which just seem to slow the pace of the film. Unlike LOTR, there are no added scenes which were omitted from the theatrical edition, just a few little bits and bobs added in.

Some fans will be pleased to know that the most additions are in the Battle of Beruna sequence, which do serve to enhance an already impressive scene. However, you can't help feeling that the extra 10 minutes could have been put in the theatrical version without too much trouble.

The movie is definitely better as a result of the additions, but only by a little bit. It's not a revolutionary change. If you're just a passing fan, and already have the theatrical version, I would suggest that you'd probably be better off buying something else. If you don't have the theatrical version, or you're a manic Narnia geek (like me), then it's worth getting.

5.0 out of 5 stars Worth it for the extras?, 6 Dec 2006
I have to confess, I gave my original two-disk copy of the film away back in the summer: partly because I knew the recipient would treasure it, and partly as an excuse to buy this version when it emerged. Perhaps that's my point: I'd find it diffficult to justify owning both versions. The two extra disks offer an agreeable and solidly-researched documentary on Lewis and the Chronicles (very little that will be news to anyone who's done their homework, but nice all the same) and a 150 minute "making of" documentary that more or less follows the course of the film. Both are better for being linear programs, without the need to navigate a system of menus, bells and whistles. And both are worth having. On that basis alone, I'm happy to have forked out £25 for the set and the original film. The film itself doesn't incorporate a vast amount of new material, and several things that I'd looked for didn't make this cut (e.g., the "romp" after Aslan's resurection and the dancing scene from the trailer). However, I find it difficult to give this film in any guise less than 5 stars (4 for added value relative to the original is fair). Considering how the LWW could have been massacred by a less sensitive, faithful and intelligent treatment, I'm happy to embrace Adamson's interpretation and overlook the bits I would liked to have changed. I'd probably have been wrong in any case :o)

4.0 out of 5 stars Was it worth?
IMHO, to extend a movie one needs to add some REAL additions into the story with the respect given to the "short" version. Read more
