We took a few of our grandchildren to see the film a couple of nights ago. Although it strayed from the book here and there, the important thing is that God and Jesus – played by Aslan – are still recognisable, even though Liam Neeson, whose voice Aslan borrowed, couldn’t quite see it.
A gaggle of teenage girls sitting behind us didn’t get it either, a fact I discovered while overhearing one of them trying to explain the plot of the first two films to the others. I told them to read the books.
Worth seeing and very enjoyable.
