Thoughts
Very well done film. While it lacked the emotional gravitas as 'Lord of the Rings' films, the story and special effects were just as well done. You will be transported to that wonderful universe.
As a non-religious person, I was not distracted by the Jesus parable. Instead I just saw the film as a story about loving your family and forgiveness. The world could use a lot more of both.
What I did find distracting was the barely-underage-hotness of Anna Popplewell. she reminded me of a young Jennifer Connelly.
What I would change
Nothing.
