Motion Picture Review – The Golden Compass Falls Short Of Controversy Or Certainly Not

So even after seeing the film, I’m still left to wonder what all of the major controversy is about.

I had never read the book series that New Line Cinema is hoping to be the next Harry Potter and in the event that the motion picture is definitely an indication of what is in the future. I’m not even sure I wish to see part 2 nor 3, when they ever get it made.

I could somewhat see why the Catholic League is protesting this film, but in the end it’s a lot to do about not a very good movie.

Now what I liked about the movie, The casting of Sam Elliott as Lee Scoresby was exactly what that role required. If you notice him in the motion picture, you soon realize that he is a lot more that what he seems at first.

The particular casting of Ian McKellen as the voice of Iorek Byrnison, as an armored bear. At this moment I had no clue what a bear would do with that kind of serious armor protection, however with the voice of Sir Ian, you think he will protect the hero of the movie.

At this point I understand that this film is part 1 of the 3 part story, but the first one should have been so much better than what we were given. I had said earlier that I hadn’t read any of the novels yet but even I could tell that something just was not right nor was it making sense in the manner it was told within the motion picture, it simply seemed like way too many holes were with this film. It looks about 40-60 minutes too short.

Therefore, from what I possibly could tell if you are a huge fan from the novel then don’t see the motion picture whatsoever, you’ll leave the movie theater, very angry. For those who have young kids (10 years old or more) then this appears like it would be a good film for them to see.

Parents, it will make you frustrated. I can imagine a great movie with this motion picture, however all we get in another mess at the end of the day.
