    Though the production values are the best money can buy and the film fulfills its promise of great action and adventure, many of its action set pieces seem all too familiar. It seems a bit uninspired because it fails to add something new to the increasingly spent genre. It attempts to give dramatic weight to the story with violence and a body count, yet panders to children with deus ex machina solutions and simplified themes. Fortunately it makes no effort to hide its obvious Christian allegory and thus avoids further confusion, and it ends with a surprisingly poignant moment common in the best children's literature: the final crossing over from fantasy to reality, from childhood into adulthood. Flaws aside, it is a richer, fuller movie than its predecessor and a worthy piece of family entertainment.

    Great sequel to The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe. Once again the special effects are magnificent and story follows wonderfully.

    As i did like narnia but not much, i didnt really think this could be any better but i was proved to be wrong as this movie really got my attention.
    I loved every single second of it, its really nice... its like Lord Of The Rings alot, it sorta had its similiarities but this is much better..
    The performances were high as well.. i highly recommend this movie..

    i really find that mouse so cute and funny, reminds me of Robinhood, hehe.. high entertainment, Same standard as the Order Of The Phoenix of Harry Potter Series..

    I liked this movie better than the first Narnia movie (which really isn't saying much, since I don't care for the Narnia stories as a whole... just not a fantasy lover). The quality seems smoother and I found less to nitpick. I didn't care for what they did with the character of Reepicheep... He's just not a snarky wisecracking character. He takes everything super seriously. And some of that was lost in the movie. Also, Susan's character was weirdified, to use the scientific terminology. However, if you liked the first movie, you should like this one a lot as well. I'm just looking forward to The Silver Chair. That was my favorite of the book series.

    Very exciting. Thought I didn't quite like that romance between Susan and Caspian, which sooo isn't in the book. Perhaps if they had changed the ending aswell;-)

    This movie was good, but not as good as people raved in my opinion. Still a very enjoyable movie and fun to watch!

    K so if you hate the lion the witch and the wardrobe don't let it stop you from seeing this cuz I hated that one and if nothing else the guy who plays the prince is so effin sexy it's retarded. Plus the plot isn't so bad either

    The characters of C.S. Lewis' timeless fantasy come to life once again in this newest installment of the "Chronicles of Narnia" series, in which the Pevensie siblings are magically transported back

    The movie is a best portrayal of the human values that have been forgotten by man and animals have been used in the best way to take back man to them

    Well. the 1st Narnia film was pretty ok-ish but I didnt really enjoy it that much. Perhaps my curiosity and wanting to see it is caused by all the hype people have made about this movie. Im half skeptical and half interested. Then again I can bitch about it later if I dont like it lol!

    It was fine. I liked the first one a little better, probably because it wasn't as dark. This was basically a war movie.

    still, i havent read the books... perhaps i will in near future.
    in comparison to the first narnia this one was a bit weaker which i didnt expected, because the constellation brings more potential material for a great film. the time runs faster in narnia, so absolutely different characters were possible with a new story. i was bored that it was all focused on the sweet relationship between dwarf and lucy, and also a battle at the end. a prophecy is well-known, too.

    Not quite as enchanting and wonderful as the first one, but the battle scenes are even more amazing, and some of the new characters really spice things up a little bit. I also wanted more Aslan...you can never get enough Jesus-lions in movies nowadays! lol. It's a notch below the first installment, but a notch above something like "The Golden Compass." All in all, "Prince Caspian" does enough to keep the Narnia franchise more toward the top of the epic fantasy franchise list.

    Fitting follow up to the first instalment of the Narnia franchise. Its another 1000 years on in Narnia, only a year later for the children...and war is raging in the magical land. Massive battle scenes, and lots of lessons to be learnt once more. A great story and an enjoyable 2 and a half hours.
