The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian

This Movie is the best. i bought it for my husband last year for Christmas. He was the one that bought the first movie which was the best too & we just had to see what happens in this movie. one day after Christmas last year we sat down to watch this movie with our 7 month son. our son loved it, he kept smiling & laughing, it's funny to see a 7 month baby sit up all by himself being good while watching the movie. this movie is similar to the first one which ends with a war. it's ashame after this movie they didn't make another one, i really liked both movies too & i bet a lot of others liked both movies too. i think they should make another movie with the same characters & The lion too. Lucy really cared & loved the lion, he (the lion) saw the heroic in lucy that she didn't see her self to go & help the others because she was so young & scared a little.

mommyohaley says "Fantastic!" about The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian

Prince Caspian was amazing! The opening scene can be a bit confusing or disturbing to those with young children. However, the overall film was very well done! I am looking forward to more films based on the CS Lewis Chronicles of Narnia series. There are several scenes which will inspire you with their valor and honor. There is purpose to their battles and it is something greater than themselves. Something we could all learn from!

I would HIGHLY recommend this movie to anyone!

acarroll says "Just as good as the first movie!" about The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian

The Chronicles of Narnia-Prince Caspian is a great movie for the whole family. I've read all the book in the series and just like the first movie, this one follows along very well. It's great to have movies like this to help children learn to love reading. When they can read a book, and then see it protrayed so well on screen, it just helps improve their imagination. I'm really hoping the next movie is Voyage of the Dawn Treader. If you haven't read the books, you should. (Though I'd warn that some are quite odd) Watch the movies as well!...

mitimom says "Return to Narnia adventure" about The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian

mitimom — Tue, 09 Dec 2008 21:47:16 GMT

Prince Caspian is the latest of Disney's releases of the timeless Chronicles of Narnia by Christian author C. S. Lewis. Disney creates a land right off the pages of the children's story and bring the characters to life before our eyes. The classic good-vs-evil battle is laden with bravery and fear, faith and doubt, It is full of action but not inappropriate for younger children. Even though it is best enjoyed after seeing The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, it can stand alone as an excellent film for all ages. I highly recommend reading the 7 books of the "Chronicles of Narnia" for more adventures....

cdandrow says "I HATE THIS MOVIE." about The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian

cdandrow — Tue, 09 Dec 2008 19:43:01 GMT

Prince Caspian was one of the worst book-to-movie adaptations eve to be done. I would say the only worse one was Princess Diaries. I don't understand what happened. The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe was so good!

You have to understand, I'm a HUGE C.S. Lewis fan, and I'm also a purist. So when they destroyed the plot and characters of one of my favorite series, you see how I might be upset. So many things were wrong with this movie that I don't even know where to begin...I suppose I should start with Susan. Let's get something straight: SUSAN DOES NOT LOVE CASPIN. SHE DOES NOT KISS HIM. SHE IS NOT EVEN REMOTELY ROMANTICALLY ATTRACTED TO HIM. According to the books, Susan ends up growing up and forgetting about Narnia altogether. Caspian goes on to marry the daughter of a fallen star in Voyage of the Dawn Treader. Nothing ever happens between Susan and Caspian.

Other things: Peter looks like a total idiot, and extremely selfish and arrogant. It should not be so!! Also, they added a random...

Prince Caspian,the latest movie in the Chronicles of Narnia series. Based on the second novel in C.S. Lewis's beloved CHRONICLES OF NARNIA series, PRINCE CASPIAN finds the four Pevensie children--Peter,Susan,Edmund, and Lucy.The movie is good not great, has really good action scene's though I felt like they rushed through the movie....

vegandaniel says "A Dem Fine Movie" about The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian

vegandaniel — Tue, 01 Jul 2008 22:32:29 GMT

Well adapted. Great visuals. The story was pretty true to the book as far as I can remember, except for the annoying interaction between Susan and Caspian. I was also surprised that some of the effects looked a little hokey. Despite those two things, the rest of the movie was entertaining and very fun to watch.

frankob23 says "The books I read as a child are brought to life beautifully." about The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian

frankob23 — Sun, 29 Jun 2008 19:13:03 GMT

I was very excited when I hard that The Chronicles of Narnia series by C.L.Lewis was being brought to the big screen. As a child I borrowed these books from the library so much they were almost my own. As an adult, I purchased my own set and have reread them several times. I was very impressed with the first film and even more so with the second edition to this franchise, The Chronicles of Narnia : Prince Caspian.

I am very happy to say that the movies have stayed very close to the storylines portrayed in the books. It's hard to find a series like that anymore. The animation and graphics were stunning.

I like a good action movie and this film is action packed, with sword fights, battles, adventure, and fun. It's a great movie for children who didn't grow up with this series and even better for those of us that did and wish to take a stroll down memory lane.

mbhutchins says "Didn't read Book: 5 stars...Read book: 4 stars" about The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian

mbhutchins — Wed, 25 Jun 2008 20:55:06 GMT

So I have been a Chronicles of Narnia fan since I was young, but I haven't read Prince Caspian since then...I saw the movie with 2 who had recently read the book and of course, like most book-to screen adaptations, for them there were a few dissapointments.

The most tragic are when the depth and most poignant elements of the book are missing in the film.

But, as a movie, it is fantastic. Well made, great cast, engaging, long but it doesn't feel like it, and appropriate for all ages, if your children are ok with battle scenes a-la LOTR.

I don't want to give any spoilers here, so I'll just say that amid all the junk in film right now, this one is worth seeing - and on the big screen.

Goddess1 says "Ben Barnes made this worth watching!" about The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian

Goddess1 — Tue, 10 Jun 2008 16:26:37 GMT

I love "kids" films, since I see so many of them with my own kids. I also find them to be more all-around entertaining than most "adult-themed" films. This is no exception. Ben Barnes was captivating as Prince Caspian. My children and I found it to be entertaining, fun, and very enjoyable to view. Is it awesome? No. Would I go see it again? Yes!!...

Sparky1369 says "No Sophomore Slump in Narnia " about The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian

Being a long-time fan of C.S. Lewis' Narnia books, I was delighted when The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe came out. With the recent release of Prince Caspian, my delight continues.

Before I saw this movie, I had a few friends tell me, "It's not as good as the first one." They lied. The story didn't stray too far from Lewis' original plot, the acting was superb and the computer graphics were amazing. I also enjoyed the fact that the parallels to Christianity were a bit more subtle than the first film. It makes one think more this way.

It was good to see Warwick Davis on the screen again as the black dwarf Nikabrik. He seemed to draw on previous characters here for inspiration. I'd say one-third Willow and two-thirds Leprechaun. Personally, the character Reepicheep, voiced by Eddie Izzard, stole the show for me. The gallant mouse-knight came to life on screen as vividly as in my imagination when reading the books.

We again get to witness the faith of a child through Lucy,...

vivasuzi says "The first was great, this was good, could have been better" about The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian

vivasuzi — Mon, 02 Jun 2008 00:56:59 GMT

My mom and I saw The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe and we loved it, so we were looking forward to seeing the second in the series The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian. If you have not seen the first film, stop reading this review right now because it will ruin it for you! You should really see them in order. If you have seen the first film, read on!

Basic Plot Details
In a town near Narnia, a new story is going on. A child is being born in a royal family and it's a boy! Sounds like good news, but for Prince Caspian it means he must run. His uncle, who's child was just born, wants to kill Prince Caspian so he can take the thrown instead. Prince Caspian runs off into the woods (where the rumors of Narnia are found) with a horn given to him by his professor who's told him many stories of Narnia. Feeling danger, he blows the horn.

The last film ended with the four kids saving Narnia from the evil witch and being crowned the queens and kings of...

ejorli says "Narnia has returned, and is back better than ever!" about The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian

ejorli — Sat, 31 May 2008 18:53:57 GMT

This generation of Narnia is surprisingly horrible, where people believe that Narnians are extinct. Peter actually disappointed me a bit, with his bad choices, and there were the ups and downs of the movie, where the Narnians seem to be losing the battle against the Telmarines.
Also, newcomer to Narnia, Ben Barnes cast as Prince Caspian, is YUMMY! Although, I was a bit upset when I learned Peter and Susan wouldn`t be going back to Narnia and that Prince Caspian would be the King.

KARLA1B4 says "the effects are awesome" about The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian

KARLA1B4 — Sat, 31 May 2008 00:37:25 GMT

This movie is awesome. I just took one of my children to see it. The story coinsides to the book. If you haven't read this series of books you should. The effects were unbelievable and the scenery was beautiful. A must see...
