You're being a little too generous with The Devil's Advocate.

i rather enjoyed that one. but Contact? BLEH

contact had a shitload of potential, it really did

this actually sums it up REALLY well

Narnia 3
wtf did I just watch/10

It's been awhile since I read the book, but the film was confusing if I tried to pay too close attention to it.

127 Hours - 8/10

Eastern Promises - 8/10

it also doesnt help that the films are fucking terrible

I've never read the book, but i saw part 2 in a sneak preview (you watch a movie that hasnt been released in the theatres but you dont know which one).
Twas a laugh riot. I dont think a single person there was watching it seriously.

I did read the books, and the second one seemed a little, off, to me. But its kinda hard to really understand any of the movies if you didn't read the first book, "The Magician's Nephew."

That's another good point. The movies are being filmed by publication date, not by chronological order. I think the decision was made based on the fact that "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe" was the first published, and currently best-known title of the series. I don't think that really affects how much sense the movies make more than the fact that they seemed to twist stuff around a bit here and there.

Depending on the publisher, the entire set will be numbered as such:

Original Publication	Chronological Order
The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe	The Magician's Nephew
Prince Caspian	The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe
The Voyage of the Dawn Treader	The Horse and His Boy
The Silver Chair	Prince Caspian
The Horse and His Boy	The Voyage of the Dawn Treader
The Magician's Nephew	The Silver Chair
The Last Battle	The Last Battle

Personally, having read them both ways, I preferred reading them by their publication dates as presented by my own passed-down box set. The material's not so deep that you're going to get lost otherwise. Not much planning went into these books by CS Lewis's own admission, so I don't take the order as seriously as some of the die-hard fans and embattled lit scholars out there.

I found the battles a little on the whitewashed side. It doesn't have to be a bloodbath, but it was just a consequence-free CGI-fest.

Ip Man - 9.75/10

WOW. Just wow. I know people here have talked about it here with high regards, but seriously... wow is the only word that can really describe it. What an awesome, awesome fucking movie.
