Reviewing
Spoilers included.
I don't know if I've ever seen a film as thought-provoking and spiritually challenging as the most recent installment in the Narnia series. Prince Caspian has completely blown me away. Twice.
I guess I didn't expect the second time around to be as amazing. In a way, it wasn't. We were, of course, lacking the novelty and un-bias-ness of seeing it for the first time. But somehow this time, knowing what would happen merely increased its impact.
There are a lot of amazing scenes, threads, sequences and lines. One of the best - while also the most painful - is the whole battle sequence at the castle, when Peter's pride and refusal to wait for Aslan causes the horrible death of many brave - and innocent - Narnians. I almost cried when seeing that today, even though I've already seen it before.

Featured Song
Jesus, can You show me / just how far the east is from the west? / I don't want to see the man I've been / rising up in me again / in the arms of Your mercy I find rest / You know just how far the east is from the west / from one scarred hand to the other
