One Sentence: Armored Polar Bears.
Is there really much more I have to say than Armored Polar Bears? I shouldn't think so. That should be enough. How about giant fucking badass, talking armored polar bears? Is that enough? Animal spirits, witches, magic, flying machines, Sam Elliot's mustache, this is a quality film.
I had a lot of fun with it, it seems to have a slightly murky plot, but who cares. I think it will all get banged out by the end of the trilogy. It was a great mix of CG, action, fantasy story, good characters, and awesome set pieces. It is that Christmas blockbuster style film that is there for the whole family to enjoy. I think the whole family will have a good time with it, a little violent with the giant polar bear fight, so watch out for that with the younger ones.
As far as the atheist thing. I didn't notice or care that there was a lot of the anti-jesus going on. I wasn't looking out for it specifically, but I wouldn't think your kids are going to renounce their faith if they watch this movie. Of course I don't believe they would ever do that with any movie, so if you think that will happen, you probably don't want to go anyway.
