Terrible acting and confusing time line

One of the most disappointing movies I have ever scene. I expected at the very least a good follow-through with the story and what I was left with was terrible acting, childish battle scenes and a confusing time line. The story which takes place over several months is confusingly portrayed in what seems like days. This creates an unbelievable series of events until you realize that far more time has passed than it seems.
This film is designed for children but I find the story acceptable for all ages and blame most of the shortcomings on director Andrew Adamson and a bad cast of children. The White Witch (Tilda Swinton) was the only redeeming factor in this film and though she had a good performance her character wasn't as dark and evil as it could have been. Good movie for children, terrible for adults.

Well of course it is a confusing timel line because time stopped in the real world once in Narnia, ha! I totally agree with you and gave it a generouse 2.5 because I love the story, but would have to rank it third out of what I have read/seen (#1 = book, #2 = animated version, #3 = this one). Oh and turkish delights? Sound awful, but probably chuck full of potassium!
