Editorial Review: Product Description: The magical world of C.S. Lewis beloved fantasy comes to life once again in Prince Caspian, the second installment of The Chronicles Of Narnia series. Join Peter, Susan, Edmund, Lucy, the mighty and majestic Aslan, friendly new Narnian creatures and Prince Caspian as they lead the Narnians on a remarkable journey to restore peace and glory to their enchanted land. Continuing the adventure of The Lion, The Witch And The Wardrobe with more magic and a brand-new hero, Prince Caspian is a triumph of imagination, courage, love, joy and humor your whole family will want to watch again and again. END Amazon.com: More exciting than The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian continues the movie franchise based on C.S. Lewis' classic fantasy books. The movie picks up where the first left off... sort of. It's been a year since the Pevensie children--Peter (William Moseley), Susan (Anna Popplewell), Edmund (Skandar Keynes), and Lucy (Georgie Henley)--returned to England from Narnia, and they've just about resigned themselves to living their ordinary lives. But just like that, they're once again transported to a fantastical land, but one with a long-abandoned castle. It turns out that they are in Narnia again--and they themselves lived in that castle, but hundreds of years ago in Narnia time. They've been summoned back to help Prince Caspian (Stardust's Ben Barnes, resembling a young, cultured Keanu Reeves), the rightful heir to the throne who's become the target of his power-hungry uncle, King Mraz (Sergio Castellitto). And he's not the only one threatened: Mraz's people, the Telmarines, have pushed all the Narnians--the talking animals, the centaurs and other beasts, the walking trees--to the brink of extinction. Despite some alpha-male bickering, Peter and Caspian agree to fight Mraz alongside the remaining Narnians, including the dwarf Trumpkin (Peter Dinklage) and the swashbuckling mouse Reepicheep (voiced by Eddie Izzard). (Also appearing is Warwick Davis, who was in Willow and the 1989 BBC Prince Caspian.) But of course they most of all miss the noble lion, Aslan, who would have never let this happen to Narnia if he hadn't disappeared. Prince Caspian is epic, evoking memories of Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings films. (Some of the battle elements may seem too familiar, but they were in Lewis's book.) And it's appropriate for kids (Reepicheep could have come out of a Shrek movie), though the tone is dark and there is a lot of death, albeit bloodless. After two successful films, Disney and Walden Media's franchise has proved successful enough that many of the characters are scheduled to return in The Voyage of the Dawn Treader. --David Horiuchi Stills from The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian (Click for larger image)

![]() Rating: - Great movie; take the kids!This is a very nice action/adventure movie which is another volume in the C.S. Lewis Narnia series. There's nothing not to like; nice scenery, nice props, nice characters, nice lion, nice voices, good dialog. The plot is fairly simple; bad guy wants the throne, and tries to kill the rightful heir. Rightful heir blows on the magic horn, and the kids from the first movie show up to help (they are, after all, the Kings and Queens of Narnia). There ... Read More Rating: - Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian (Blu-Ray)We liked the movie. 2.5 hours Overall good entertainment and linkage to first movie was good. Movie scheme is darker, not as close to the book as we'd like but action in HD was good. Depth and color stood out, but when much is night based it takes away a bit. Blu-Ray is suppose to be able to enhance even the night time movie filming, but this one didn't seem too. Two different HD TVs. Definitely teenager and up movie. Not one for the younger kids. Recommend: Rating: - Trust me... You can do much better....When the first film came out I saw it right away. I have read all the books numerous times and thoroughly enjoyed each one. While I thought they could have done better with the first film I also recognized that one can only do so much in film adaptions of stories like these. I eagerly anticipated the second film, hoping that it would pick up the slack where the first movie failed and build upon it to make the series great. Boy, was I disappointed. Prince Caspian is (unfortunately) ... Read More Rating: - Excellent Family MovieExcellent family movie for children 10+. Good talking points around biblical analogies - an understanding of C.S. Lewis books is a tremendous benefit in understanding the biblical relationship. Rating: - things Never Happen The Same TwiceDisney has unleashed another fantastic chapter from the Chronicles of Narnia. Now "Prince Caspian", does not follow the book of the same name as loyally as the first did. Instead we dig in much deeper into the depression of Narnia and get a few spectacular battle scenes. This film is a lot darker and less magical than the first, it is however so much more meaningful. Clearly this movie breaks out from the clean cut "the Lion, With & the Wardrobe". It crosses territory only "Lord ... Read More Browse for similar items by category:
