Movie review : The Golden Compass


So i just recently saw this movie . It released a long long time ago . Its based on the first novel in Philip Pullman's trilogy "His dark materials" . The movie is based in a parallel world where there are humans and each human has an animal companion known as 'daemons' and they are basically the soul of the humans . So if you harm the daemon you can harm the human . And if the human is killed the daemon turns into dust . The kids in this world have daemons that can shape shift and your daemons stop shape shifting when you grow up . And the evil people in this movie are called the majestarioum . They have a resemblance to the church and christianity and all that . And all this apparently caused some controversy in the real world . Anyway , The movie is a fantasy movie with a lot of interesting animations specially the polar bears . They have some interesting looking armour . Anyway the movie doesnt really have a proper end because its supposed to be a trilogy so u might be a little dissapointed . I'd give the movie 6.5/10 . If ur bored and happen to find this movie then watch it .
