Stunning

Rating: 9/10 (11 December 2005)

I had been looking forward to this movie for ages, and when I saw it this weekend I was not disappointed. The SFX were amazing, and the whole film really beautiful. They stayed very true to the book, and anything they changed made the movie more moving and interesting in my opinion. ABout the Christianity in the film, the book IS based on Christian beliefs, but thats just how the movie is. But overall, its not as if the whole movie was just trying to sell Christianity or put down other religions. So, If you want to see something I really do recommend this, Its never really boring, and its very touching, it also has great music that just flows right along with the scenes. Not to mention that the whole film is absolutely stunning. The only weird thing..the whole battle scene seemed like it would be very gory...but I never saw any blood? blood could not be much worse than some other parts. anyway, great movie! worth the money
