I wanted to read the books before I watched this film, because I hear they’re phenomenal and I badly wanted to do a book to film comparison, but I never expected it to be nominated.
In an alternate dimension where people’s soul’s live outside their body in the form of “daemons,” Lyra (Dakota Blue Richards) is an orphan who is chosen to have a golden compass that can answer any question she asks it. Her best friend is taken by Gobblers, evildoers who are part of the dominating Magisterium, and she sets out on a quest to the north to find him.

New Line offered some amazing eye candy in the form of spectacular action sequences, amazing visual effects, and Clive Owen.
Shoot 'Em Up
We were treated to three action sequences from this film, each one more fantastic than the last. It is some of the most exciting action I've seen in a long time; very similar to the Transporter series, though with a new comedic element.
