I guess somehow I forgot this fact when I went to see the movie due to all the grand previews I've seen.A very simple, straightforward storyline with simple, 2-dimensional characters who stumble through very black-and-white moral lessons. Oh, yeah, the Lion is Jesus, unabashedly.
And what's up with the cheap, obviously-fake looking CGI, especially the scenary? I thought they spent a lot of money to make this movie..
