Read the whole series many moons ago.
Of them all "The voyage of the Dawntreader" is the name I remember fondest. Don't ask me about the plot or to even name characters..... but the feelings that I liked it the most remain.
That's the one where they go off to find the edge of the world, the new guy gets turned into a dragon because he is a cheap off-brand substitute for Edmund, and at the end the mouse fellow goes to heaven via surfing up a waterfall.

Oh the movies were far more evangelical than the books. CS Lewis went church of Ireland to high anglicanism (which is essentially catholicism 'cepting Brenda's the pope).
The movies were financed by Walden Media, a US evangelical company.
