The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian Reviews and Ratings



  • November 23, 2009
    More mature than the first.
  • November 23, 2009
    Way more violent than the original, should have been pg-13. very disappointed in the rating commission

    I wonder how people succed in seeing this movie from start to finish, because I gott incredibly restless towards the end.
    That beeing said, I must admit, this ain't a bad movie, just dull, more or less on the level of the first movie, very good visually, decent tale, decent act...( read more)ing, some cool effects, like when the White Witch is resurrected, or when the river turnes into a Neptun like creature, also the battles were ok.
    But a lot of scenes were unnecessary, and they didn't help the plot in no way.
    Ben Barnes has the looks to make a credible prince, but I doubt his acting abilities, and more then once he struggled with his accent, the rest of the cast is reasonable.
    I might seen this again, but I think I should be sedated.

    It gets quite tricky when it comes to reviewing the Narnia series. Perhaps the biggest challenge stems from the fact that the Narnia movies try to tie the two stories, "the Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe" and "Prince Caspian", in a sequel. The fact is, though, the two stories ...( read more)are not back-to-back in plot; they are actually the second and the fourth books in a seven-book series. Even the original book series isn't what we would normally expect from a series - each of the seven books has its own unique story with a different set characters and setting. Yes, the story of "Prince Caspian" is somewhat a continuation of the story of the four siblings from "the Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe", but people who expect the sequel to simply be a better continuation of the first movie might find themselves let down.

    First of all, there is not as much magic in this film.
    The first half of the movie is solely an epic journey of the siblings, which I actually found it a bit boring and long, asking "Ok... what next?" But then again, it might have been intentionally made to show the confusion within the characters themselves. Basically, no magic.
    The second half of the movie is when things start to get "ohh baby" - more action comes in along with the eye candy visual effects.

    The acting improved... the characters are more developed. Lucy doesn't seem like she's smiling when she's supposed to be crying anymore.

    So what's my final thought?
    "Prince Caspian" crew did their best to deliver an epic movie despite the obvious difficulties with mediocre cast and died-down magic. Overall, it has more style and a classier feel than the first. Because it was so different from "the Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe," the fact that it was presented as a sequel was, at best, misleading. I personally enjoyed the biblical allusions.

    The movie versions of C.S. Lewis' amazing classic novels have been a long time coming, and The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe was wonderful. Prince Caspian is not quite up to the same standard, but it is still an amazing spectacle and great to watch.
  • November 12, 2009
    astounishing visual effects! one of my fav. wow... Ben Barnes
  • November 12, 2009
    this is the cronic what ccals of narnia
  • November 12, 2009
    Not enough story to sustaine a full length feature film. the weakes in the series.
  • November 11, 2009
    Good, but not as good as the first.

    it's different from the book
  • November 2, 2009
    it's different from the 1st.

    Everything you know is about to change.

    Second installment in the Chronicles of Narnia series. I saw the first one and enjoyed it so I thought; why not see this one too?

    It is absolutley beautifully made considering the fact that so much cgi. I haven't read that boo...( read more)ks and apart from watching the Lion, the witch and the wardrobe I don't know that much about the Narnia-verse or anything. But I really should read them.
    I do love the characters though. We'ce got the original Penesive children that work great together and the additions are characters such as Reepicheep and Prince Caspian.
    I think that the plot was good and you understood pretty much everything that was going on without getting confused.
    Beautifully made, interesting plot, darker then the first one but still abit childish( it is a childrens movie after all). Pretty good acting, considering the fact that Georgie Henley and Skandar Keynes for example are so young.
    I fell inlove with Prince Caspian and Ben Barnes, brilliant accent.

    All in all a good movie. Will definitley check out the next one.

    Reepicheep:Choose your last words carefully, Telmarine!
    Prince Caspian: You are a mouse.
    Reepicheep: [sighs] I was hoping for something a little more original. Pick up your sword.

    im sorry, but i was not impressed. im not sure what it was lacking, but it was lacking something.
  • November 1, 2009
    this is where my Ben Barnes obsession started :P
  • October 31, 2009
    Similar to the first movie but strange that the children just suddenly appeared in Narnia an not through the wardrobe. I liked the prince a lot in this movie as he had an hispanic accent.
  • October 31, 2009
    still it was a good movie!!
  • October 30, 2009
    Great! Perfect! Beautiful!

  • October 28, 2009
    love prince caspian!
  • October 27, 2009
    Really good! The differences to the first were striking. I think one of the greatest things about this movie was that the four had all grown up and you could see where they had come from, what they had been through and how they had changed in the way they behaved and interacted, ...( read more)in comparison to other movie series when the kids just look older rather than experience personality changes. The acting was quite good (I have to say Edmund was my favourite character in this movie - Skandar Keynes did really well), the scenery was really beautiful at times and the animations were realistic enough. It is much darker than the first and much more action packed, but not overly so. Overall a very emotive movie with many good Biblical references. Well worth the watch!

    Better than the first. Great graphics and follows the book well.

  • October 14, 2009
    the first movie of Narnia are best
  • October 12, 2009
    Cine infantil del soportable (aunque soporte mejor la primera). A mi lo que mas me gusta de las pelis de Narnia son las batallas (5).
  • October 12, 2009
    This movie is okay.It follows the typical patern of sequels to where it's not as good as the first one.
  • October 12, 2009
    A fantastic Adaptation of the book. Which of the Narnaia series was never my favorite. But THIS movie tok it and ran with it. i came away with an apprecauitiaon of the novel which i have not read as a boy! I'm re=reading the Narnia seies again and can NOT wait to see Number Three...( read more)- the Voyage of the Dawn Treader. I know Edmund, Lucy and Caspian are in that one too...

    I don't know why this movie isn't rated higher by crititcs? i think its becuse its been outshown by similar fantasy ics like The LOTR and the Harry Potter drivel. But it is WORTH watching, it draws you in and stays in your mind afterwards. I'd watch it again and again and i want to BUY a copy for myself.

  • October 9, 2009
    Prvi dio mi je bio puno drazi, ali i ovaj je imao ono nesto. Zadnja scena borbe je najbolja :)

  • October 7, 2009
    Loved it , thought it was really good!
  • October 6, 2009
    This movie was okay I guess, not as good as the first movie
  • October 5, 2009
    Boy oh boy what a step down in the series. Andrew Adamsonīs direction has regressed to the point of amateurism, the screenplay is full of plotholes and leaps in logic and the overall feel of the film is rather cheap, broken, unfinished. An intriging premise (a destroyed Narnia, 1...( read more)000 years after the children first set foot in it) is completely wasted

    The sole standout element is, not surprisingly, Peter Dinklage who delivers a typically strong performance as a seriously badass dwarf.

    Even to a non admirer of C.S. Lewis this film was a disappointment.
