    I watched the third Narnia Disney film "Voyage of the Dawn Treader".
    It is significantly different from the book - I can't believe they agreed so much deviation.
    Although they'd done the special effects very well and have good actors I didn't like it at all.

    The BBC series from the 1980s followed the books quite closely.

    CS Lewis is not some hack whose work they can mess around with. I got really irritated. The first two Disney films were more true to the books. I'd recommend anyone who is interested in Narnia to read the books instead of watching the films. The films even skipped two critical books in the series, no1 and no 3.

    I saw in the neighboring theme people talked about "Собачье сердце"
    I think this book/movie must be here.
    It's a very rare case when the book is excellent and the movie even better.

    Also the similar case is the "12 стульев". I've read the book after watching the film and do not regret.

    I totally agree. The movie is at least as good as a book, and acting is unbelievable. It's a must see for everyone.

    Hey, Hanna, thanks for reminding me about CS Lewis! I don't know when his books have been published in Russian for the first time, but he was absolutely unknown when I was a kid. Actually I've never heard about him until the movie came along. Are his books too childish? Will an adult like them? I tried to watch the first movie but got bored after 1/3. I think I might like books better, and I definitely want to know why everyone likes them so much.
