The Second Narnia Movie

Saw "Prince Caspian" today, the second Narnia movie. This one was a lot more serious, gritty, violent. Not so much a children's movie, though there was nothing graphic. I really liked it. The religious themes were much more subtle, even obscure. Certainly nothing like the blatant spiritual subtext in "The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe." Even now, based on this movie, I'm not sure what spiritual points C. S. Lewis was making, so I'm wondering how true the book is to the movie or how hard they tried to incorporate his religious themes. But hey--it was a good movie. And when Aslan finally appeared, I about had tears in my eyes.

I have been wanting to see this movie. I had heard on the radio that the spiritual overtones were more so in this movie than the first. I guess it depends on what your looking for. I look forward to taking a look for myself.
