Edwardian children swept from their bedroom into a perilous wonderland
The difference: Its danger stays storybook-sized — no war, no sacrifice

A child at home among talking creatures, with a real predator out there
The difference: One boy alone in green heat, not siblings under snow

A lonely child crosses into a fading world and is told he matters there
The difference: Stranger and sadder, with a melancholy Narnia keeps at bay

A gentle mythical guardian and a child who believes first
The difference: Small and quiet — one dragon, one forest, no epic battle

Epic where it counts, warm underneath

The same mix in both: comfort, then dream logic
The difference: The critics' underdog of the pair

Fairy-tale kingdoms with a cold, regal power at the centre
The difference: Told from the villain's side, and far more sombre than childlike

An ordinary kid learns a mythic destiny was always his
The difference: Modern teen banter and pace — none of the hushed reverence

A child steps through into a strange kingdom that has been waiting
The difference: Burton's spiky visual oddity in place of storybook warmth

Innocence and wonder set hard against grown-up cruelty
The difference: A small circus-tent story — no war, no kingdom, no destiny

Adventure with a pulse of scale, in both cases
The difference: Made in the 1980s, in a different era of the craft

Both lean on warmth more than on family
