1.5/4  The Golden Compass
Within 10 minutes ofwatching this movie, I had no idea what was going on whatsoever. And worse, i didn't care at all. So for the next hour and a half i tried to go on visuals and moments, and even they were dull. This is a terribly dire 'f... (read full)

3/4  Fun movie

3/4  Golden Compass Quick Review
This is an Oscar winner compared to any of the Narnia Flicks. Hell, I might even call it as good as return of the King given the Kings 5 or 6 continual endings. A great surprise for fantasy lovers. Quite good actually.

1.5/4  Golden Compass Quick Review
