movie review: the golden compass
Published Dec. 11, 2007This past Saturday night my nine year old grandson and I went to see "The Golden Compass". As avid movie-goers we had looked forward to the movie after seeing the great previews. While I was unfamiliar with the story, my grandson was not. He shares a love of books with his mother.
The movie special effects were fantastic and the story was entertaining, creepy, fun and unexpected. What child (from 9 to 90!) doesn't like heroes bigger than life, villains over the top, a battling bear for a protector, and a young girl who never gives up trying to save the day.
The movie ends setting everyone up for the next installment in the trilogy. My grandson and I can't wait to see how our young heroine saves....... Whoops! Almost spoiled it :)
