Flushed Away

Set on and beneath the streets of London, Flushed Away is the story of Roddy, an upper-crust “society mouse,” who is rather rudely evicted from his Kensington flat when he is flushed down into Ratropolis, the bustling sewer world found under London’s streets. There, he meets Rita, an enterprising scavenger who works the sewers in her faithful boat, the Jammy Dodger. Together they must navigate their way through a busy city filled with dangers for any mouse, including terrifying rapids, treacherous whirlpools and, most of all, the villainous Toad and his hench-rats Spike and Whitey. Though completely out of his element at first, the privileged Roddy finds himself an unlikely hero when he learns that Ratropolis is in danger from the world above.

The Chronicles of Narnia - The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe

Disney The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch andthe Wardrobe Widescreen - C.S. Lewis’s classic novel The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe makes an ambitious and long-awaited leap to the screen in this modern adaptation. It’s a CGI-created world laden with all the special effects and visual wizardry modern film making technology can conjure, which is fine so long as the film stays true to the story that Lewis wrote. And while this film is not a literal translation--it really wants to be so much more than just a kids’ movie--for the most part it is faithful enough to the story, and whatever faults it has are happily faults of overreaching, and not of holding back.
