"Where the wheels start coming off is from the second wardrobe excursion onward, with the chidren rapidly accepting the bizarre world they've been thrown into and the cliche` dialogue/behavior of the talking animals."An odd critique from someone who rates "Harry Potter" at the top of his list?

Talking beavers aren't an unheard of phenomenon mind you ...ummm, but maybe we shouldn't go there since we're discussing a "G" rated flick! ;^)

BTW, I didn't place Harry Potter at the top of the list, that honor goes to Peter Jackson's LoTR trilogy. However, the kids in Harry Potter are far more interesting, more cleverly drawn and make more sense given their fantasy world.
In short, I saw nothing in Narnia that would make me want to go back and read the author's work.
