The ticket was too expensive(Maybe they got add additional RM1 from internet booking)
Overall, what i nid to say about tis movie is it's not like LOTR maybe i'm not kid...
And I wont continue with GC2 or GC3 anymore coz it's really waste my money n time...

Well, i think better read the book.

Seems like all also hate this movie,as I say this is a first film of the trilogy,where got so many actions for you all to see...and rmb this films is based on kid novel like narnia and harry potter...is completely different from the LOTR which is an adult novel...I quite enjoy this movie compare to harry and narnia,if got 2nd episode i sure go and watch it....

4.5/10 from me...

neiji,wat to do those ppl dun ve common sense.saying there's no ending 4 the GC.i didn't know earlier that it will b GC2 n GC3 but after the movie i knew that it will b a 2nd episode.Lyra mention tat they will cont to discover abt dust n so on.well..i guess they usually straightaway watch the middle part of any movies n series thats y they expect the 1st episode to ve alot of exciting scene...its such a pitiful that so many ppl out there dun ve common sense..

hehe u guys have too high expectation already la..all also expecting LOTR materials..

seriously, if u compare to Narnia and Harry Potter, i think this movie is way better. it's more original, fantasy and check out the scenes..all are breathtaking...

like most of the folks here said, this is the first movie. sure slow abit la...
stil i'm giving it 8/10.

worth every single cent la... it has actions, fantasy, surprise, colorful, suspense....witches, bears, propercy, aeronouts, daemon...etc etc..

nice nice

Wat kind of common sense do u expect from those who have watched and condemned(i.e Me) the movie...Even witout comparin it wit da likes of LOTR i can still say it is worst den any Harry Potter movies(its bad since HP5 was pretty bad)..

And i even rate HP 1(which is da 1st book ofcuz) much higher than GC cuz they make us movie-goers understand wat they are makin and their intentions(at least they tried anyways)...GC failed to do MISERABLE and even though they 'successfully' created a new world it still doesnt justify how highly rated the movie is and da budget given..

Besides its so darn obvious that they are gonna make a sequel to da movie(with such ending surely anyone notice)..Whether da movie is meant for children anot it still su*ked...Even the kids will hate tis one..

well the cgi armoured bears already put me off from watching this...

i was cheated by the armored bear i hope there is more interaction between human and their daemon thou. I do like the friendship between Lyra and Roger

nicely said.........

narnia wasn't that good.. but this totally sucks.
two thumbs down

bored movie.. without ending.

Pls do more research before you say it is obvious will be a sequel...the producer already mentioned the sequel will be depending on financial success of GC.

i doubt they'll do a sequel, from the current numbers, seems that they didn't quite make it

http://www.usatoday.com/life/movies/news/2...ox-office_N.htm

the problem with these movies nowadays, in the trailer they try to make it as epic as LOTR. of course for those who haven't read the book, after being enticed by the trailer we would set our standards as high as LOTR. Coz that's what we want to see, but of course, the movie fails to deliver and thus the original riding on the hype of LOTR turns into a double edge sword that bites it's owner.

Haven't watched the movie yet, was kinda waiting for reviews before i decide to watch it, guess i'll watch it on the small screen now

those who truly enjoys the movie........is just plain childish

Added on December 10, 2007, 8:25 ami seriously 100% doubt there will be a great coming war .
even at the climax of the movie which is the ending, i didnt even realised its the climax until the show was coming to the end.

hell its not even half a climax, with withches flying around for 1min, gyptian running for another min
and all of a sudden its over..

there will not be any great coming war, thats for sure because it's a KIDS KIDS KIDS movie

lol..i watched the movie yesterday..kinda sux
i didn watch the book so duno whts the story telling abt..
the movie was so miserable..alot of things didn explain at all
and it was so obvious that there will be 2nd or more episode coming out since the story suddenly end in a suprise..
the polar bear-Lorek Byrnison armor is uglier then those "ke leh feh" polar bear..lol
and how come the polar bear can activate his armor anytime he want??how he hide his armor..haha XD
bsides..why suddenly the witch help them in the war?bcuz the gal can speak out who the witch lover is??lol..
but i quite like the creative of the story anyway.."the daemons"..

i like the part when ragnar, the polar bear king wan 1 v 1 combat with Iorek.

den one ke le feh bear put on the kick ass helmet for the king.. xD

methinks if the movie was all about Lyra and Iorek the armoured bear, it could be so much much more better, instead she needs to go on a mission to save her uncle, her friends, bla bla bla, zzzzzz, the only good thing about this movie is the battle between the two bears
