Squanders both its first-rate computer graphics and its sturdy international cast.

Gone With The Twins

Better stunts, superior use of slow-motion, and family-friendly violence aid in the project's smooth pace and sustained action.

When the film gets bogged down in the battles the enchantment ebbs away.

Good movie. Not nearly as inspired, nor as inspiring as, the original, but it certainly has it's strengths. The random romance was entirely unnecessary to the plot, not to mention wishy-washy and underdeveloped. But that's my main gripe about this one. CGI could have been a bit better, but everything else, from the story (barring the romance) to the characters, especially Miraz, is terrific! It doesn't match up to the first movie, but it's a great follow-up!

Potentially my favorite in the series, Prince Caspian is such a good rendition of Narnia. I am a huge fan of this movie.

While its characterization is a bit superficial and it is also emotionally weak, Prince Caspian is a solid fantasy film that is both stirring and dark in tone, in addition to having great visual effects, entertaining action and a more compelling narrative that honestly makes this a small improvement from the first one. A positive surprise for sure.

A faithful adaption. Much darker than I expected and deeper in mythology. I loved stepping back into this world. Lots of symbolisms with an overarching story of love, hope, endurance and dreams + lots of PG13 violence in a PG film. I was thoroughly entertained as the film was briskly paced and a thrill to watch.
