Golden Compass (the movie)

Went to see it this afternoon. If you have read the book, you will like the movie. If you haven't read the book it will be heavy sledding. There is lots of action but it will be more than a little incoherent. Sets and costumes are beautifully done, the acting is very good. The young girl protagonist, Lyra, is well played indeed. The ending is a cliffhanger, leaving the audience waiting to see the next movie of the trilogy.
