** Say what you will about the film, but there's no denying that it has a lot of truly spectacular visuals, particularly the airships. It even won an Oscar for Best Visual Effects, beating out ''Film/{{Transformers}}'' (which many people expected would get the award).

* SugarWiki/RuleOfSeanConnery:
** '''Creator/NicoleKidman'''. She was Philip Pullman's first choice for Mrs Coulter, even deciding he was "wrong" about how he'd written her hair colour in the book (she's dark-haired in the book and Nicole is blonde). She's considered an excellent Mrs Coulter, and commands every scene she's in.
** Creator/DanielCraig despite his short screen time is a brilliant Lord Azriel. It helps that he was a massive fan of the books.
** Creator/SamElliott as Lee Scoresby. Even though the ''Series/HisDarkMaterials'' series received a more positive reception, a lot of fans still insisted they preferred him as Scoresby, especially given how different his portrayal in the series was.
** And of course Creator/EvaGreen as Serafina Pekkala. Even though she's reduced just to giving exposition in most of her screen time, fans were eager to see her do more in ''The Subtle Knife'' adaptation that sadly never came to pass.
