In regards to Aslan's "It is finished"--I loved that. That was when I teared up the second time (first time during the Stone Table sacrifice, of course). I haven't mentioned it to any of my friends though, for reasons that are hard to articulate. I suppose it's like the differing feelings the Pevensies got when the Beavers first mentioned Aslan. It's going to hit different people in different ways. Atheists or those who aren't comfortable with the Christan/allegorical references might take it as outright preaching and be turned off, those who take offense with a Christ figure personified by a lion might feel that their faith is being insulted. Just my opinion, of course. Myself, I thought it was perfect.
