Product: The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian (Two Disc Edition + BD-Live) [Blu-ray] (2008)
Rating: 3.0
Not as good as the first one but still great
Prince Caspian is the second installment of the Narnia series by C.S. Lewis. In this film, the Pensevie children return after one year to find Narnia completely overrun by enemy forces they had kept at bay while there. To their shock, they realize that 1,300 years had passed since that fateful day they came back through the wardrobe. The Narnia they knew is gone and enemies who once would have slew each other with little thought have become powerful allies against a more powerful foe. In addition, a young Telmarine prince claiming rightful rulership is exiled from his throne by his own diabolical uncle.I liked this film but I'll be the first to admit it isn't on the same level as the first one. Some of the sequences were spectacular such as the assault on the castle and the battle between Peter and Miraz. However, I couldn't help but be reminded of Rings when I saw the trees and water spirit near the end of the movie. I wasn't too crazy about the violence these kids engaged in but that how it's written in the book. I'd still recommend this but not as strongly as the first film.
