Don't waste time and money
The movie is a let down on all the levels. Excruciatingly boring, I was fighting desire to sleep, very slow and the plot doesn't make any sense.
And the worst of it, noone ever tells you that the movie is not completed, so that you would have to come again to pay again to see the end of this nonsense. After 2 hours of boredom they don't even tell you what the 'dust' is.
What a joke! Movie makers don't have any respect for audience any more. Anything would do to get money. -

Golden Compass
I have read the book but did not enjoy it as much as my partner did. I thought the cinematography of this film and the special effects were very good. I am not sure how purists would feel it compares to the book but for me it was an enjoyable way to spend a couple of hours. I thought Nicole Kidman was good, although it is perturbing how little she moves her face. This is obviously the first in three and so the ending is unresolved, leading the way for the next installment. Not just a kiddies film, this was a good yarn.
