... but without the magic!
No Fairy Godmother!
No pumpkin turning into a coach!
It seems there is an anti-magic movement within Christianity that is gaining ground.
Christians: Do you think that is a good or bad thing for your religion?

Here's an excellent review of the movie:

Christians really should be more upset with the movie, if it's not true to the gospels. I guess that goes to show the ignorance among christians about their own gospels.
Anyway, I love the end of the review:
Many years ago I met with Ernest Hemingway. In a remarkably frank conversation, the Pulitzer Prize winner confessed to me that there was something about Judaism that he admired more than any other religion. “From my understanding,” he told me, “Judaism, unlike the Christianity in which I was raised, is a religion of life, not a religion of death.”
That brilliant insight is what I wish Jews would stress as the ultimate reason why we can’t relate to a film that is preoccupied with nine hours of dying. “Choose life” is the cardinal message of our religion. A movie that celebrates death, produced under the Icon Films label, can only make me regret as a Jew that Gibson didn’t take to heart the Biblical prohibition of the Second Commandment: “Thou shalt not make for yourself any icons.”

I thought it was a great film, I was in tears watching it. I don't see why Christians would be upset with the film.
