Having paid £6.75 for a cinema ticket (is it me, or is that EXTORTIONATE?) I saw the new Narnia film last night. And putting all the religious propaganda stuff to one side for a minute, it's actually a great movie! The story takes place about 1300 years after the events of The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, and is jam packed full of special effects. There've been tons of reviews of the film but I was amused by one reviewers comment:"In total effect, Prince Caspian feels a lot more earthbound than The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. At least, that's true until a surprise figure shows up, his giant sculpted liquid face rising out of the waves of an aqua green river. Will viewers agree on what this face is? Or will they debate it the way that certain devout legions do when it is spotted, mysteriously, in the shadowed folds of a potato chip?". (More here).
I wonder if children - who the film is aimed at, will understand the references....
