Just went to see the Narnia film - very good. Child actors amazingly good; impressive visuals, just the right level of 'Christian-but-not-preachy'. Nice also to see the last couple of bits of New Zealand not used in Lord of the Rings. You did feel in the battle sequence that you'd been there before though, as the middle earth battle thing has been done definitively by now. I could imagine Andrew Adamson (Narnia director) going up to Peter Jackson (Lord of the Rings director) and saying 'You got any bits of scenery/middle earth costumes/battle choreography/CGI animals left over that we could borrow, mate?'

Anyway, it's a good film. Well worth seeing. It's kindly been linked from the front page of the wibsite, so I don't need to work out how to do the linky thing.
