May 5, 2009This looks very good, really good, despite my dislike of too much cgi this film does look and feel true. But thats it really, this is basically the same as we've seen before over and over now, with other films like LOTR, Labyrinth, Golden Compass, Legend etc...the final battle is...( read more)

April 17, 2009Having never read any of the Chronicles of Narnia I can't say how true the story is to the book but what I can say is that this is one fantastic movie. Meant for children without a doubt but at the same time a very enjoyable watch for adults.
I find comparing it to Lord of the ...( read more) -
April 5, 2009Prince Caspain... I love you. haha.
Come on, it's quite all right. Sheer entertainment with decent performances, decent cinematography, decent score. It's a good alternative to so many braindead fantasy flicks out there.
Well, C.S. Lewis was not braindead of course so let's th...( read more) -

At every turn, the filmmakers go for clutter and tumult where simplicity would do -- and Adamson, to put it kindly, isn't the fleetest of action directors. full review

Andrew Adamson's The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian is a much more elaborate, ambitious picture than the 2005 The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, and it adds up to fa... full review

The struggles remain, but [director] Adamson has tweaked the plot, rejiggered the character dynamics and piled on the epic warfare. By the end I had overdosed on surly Peter, pouty Caspian and over-di... full review

Stands a good chance of becoming the "Empire Strikes Back" of the "Narnia" series: a darker and more satisfying follow-up to an already exceptional starting point. full review

Child kings and queens land in a Jacobean tragedy with The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian.

A crackerjack sequel that matches, and in some ways surpasses, its predecessor. full review

Claudia Puig, USA Today
Though the movie could have ended a few scenes earlier, it is still a journey well worth taking. full review

Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle
It's a dragged-out exercise, with no epic scale and no spirit worth talking about. full review

Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
If anything, this sequel could have used more hellfire. You leave feeling covered in a blanket of bland. full review

August 19, 2008Commercials looked better than the actual film. I'll say though, the action was good. Moseley makes a horrible king (and Peter), due to the fact he talks with a gay lisp (it's not convincing). The other kids were good though. A bit dark, though. They could have dedicated more time to mythos, like the LOTR films did.
It was ok. 3/5 stars. -
August 3, 2008I think the movie is pretty disappointing. It is pretty much exactly like the first one, there is no new development, there are no new twists or anything you dont expect. If you have only seen the first one safe your money and wait until it comes out on dvd, much better. Even the fighting scene is pretty much like in the first one.
