“The Golden Compass” Brings Fantasy Home

The GOlden Compass

Fantasy movies have made a definite comeback since the insane success of the epic Lord of the Rings trilogy. No longer just for kids and nerds, fantasy movies are now a socially-acceptable form of escapism, featuring magical characters and creatures brought to life by incredible state of the art special effects.

The latest fantasy epic hitting Blu-ray and DVD is The Golden Compass. Based on the celebrated fantasy novel of the same name and starring Nicole Kidman and Daniel Craig (as well as Gandalf himself, Sir Ian McKellan, as a giant talking polar bear), it’s a sweeping story set in a world where people’s souls exist outside their bodies in animal form. Featuring absolutely stunning effects and visuals, it’ll sweep you up and take you to a fantastic world that is, we promise, completely different than the one you inhabit every day. And isn’t that the point?
