I liked it a lot, really good movie. More of a family flick though. Think of it as the entry point for you children, preparing them for when they watch LOTR. In a lot of parts of the movie you have to keep in mind it is intended for the whole family, like some of the jokes. The only real problem(s) I had with the movie was:
Spoiler: I read on yahoo, before I went to see the movie, about how the book had all these allusions to Christianity and that Asland (sp?) was meant to be Jesus. I read the book when I was in sixth grade and I did not notice it, and its not like our teacher was going to tell us. I just wish I could have seen the movie without knowing that, because when I was watching it I kept waiting for the references. Either way, it did not really bother me at all. I really liked the way it was done. I actually like the character of Jesus, always have. It is not like it hasn't been done before, I just don't think its been this obvious before.
Almost forgot, there was one or two scenes where I swear they must have been running out of their budget. It was a part with the wolves and with some giants at the end, just looked bad.
Anyway, awesome movie, check it out.
