 Courage et détermination ne sont rien sans la foi ! December 21, 2008
Vladyk Barnes (Quebec, Canada)
Dans le genre médiéval fantastique depuis quelques temps nous avons la chance non seulement d'avoir un large éventail de titre à suivre mais en plus il y en a de nombreux comme Narnia qui sont fort bien fait !
Encore une fois la petite famille Pevensiese se retrouve projeter dans l'univers de Narnia mais cette fois il n'y reste guère grand chose de l'antique beauté de ce royaume... Les ruines, l'injustice et la trahison ont remplacé ce qui était que beauté et grandeur...
Heureusement qu'il reste encore des Narniens et que certain Telmarins sont encore digne de foi, car sans cela il aurait été bien impossible aux anciens rois et reines du passé de pouvoir mener une quelconque lutte...
Et malgré tout cela la lutte sera rude et le chemin bien ardu avant qu'un soupçon d'espoir puisse naître dans ce peuple qui a été bafoué a de nombreuses reprises par la tyranie !
 The Chronicles of Narnia and Jesus November 25, 2008

This review is a short one, which is a stark contradiction to the length of this snoozer of a film. I enjoyed The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe, it provided that interesting un-Lord of the Rings feel, whilst maintaining a great similarity to it. And while neither Chronicles films provide anything new or interesting to the fantasy genre that hasn't been seen in the last 10 years it is an adequate film, with ridiculous creatures with everyone having great British accents because as we all know all fantasy-based creatures have British accents, it only makes sense when a movie has the great stirring and rallying speech that the character delivering it has a British accent. Nobody wants a Lion with a French accent or a rat with an American accent trying to inspire when people can barely understand or not be inspired by what's being said. I guess this is the world of Naria by way of Europe, and not the Western version.
I found the children even more annoying than in the previous movie. And it wouldn't be a Chronicles movie without a million Jesus, Christian references and the whole resurrection theme being beaten to death, like Jesus on the cross. I love movies like this one that has the whole religious undertone to sell and influence young children in a more insidious way then actually being told that if you don't believe you're going to hell or that you don't have morals. Creating a false monarchy with constant reference to the choosen ones, and having a lion aka Jesus but voice acted by Liam Neeson. All this adds to the whole mess of that is this horrible bit of fantasy/propoganda. This movie should have a warning label, This film contants annoying British Children, allusions to Jesus and the choosen people, and various mythological creatures that have British backgrounds. Here's a practical question, if those kids are royalty and the choosen ones, how are they going to pass the royal seed down? I guess there's some extra special hugs between brother and sister, I think the next in this series of films is Chronicles of Naria: Keepin' it in the Family with Jesus. Hey I figure if this movie is allowed to brow beat people with religious references so can I, Jesus, praise him.
Much better than The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe November 16, 2008

Prince Caspian is based on the fourth book of The Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis, and was first published in 1951. It was such an exciting movie to watch, with so much action and suspense. I started liking the movie characters more. Prince Caspian can be enjoyed by all ages, but make sure to watch The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe first!
Prince Caspian is about Prince Caspian, who is a young king, but his uncle desires his throne. In his time of need, Prince Caspian unknowingly blows Susan's horn that brings the Kings and Queens of Narnia (Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy) back. How much has Narnia changed since their last visit?
Fantasy at its best November 14, 2008

I absolutely adored this movie. Prince Caspian the movie is different enough from Prince Caspian the book that it might displease a few staunch fans. That said, I thought that it was marvelous. Fun, engaging, light-spirited, and a little bit romantic. Very cute. A winner for the whole family
Incredible Movie! September 13, 2008

This is a wonderful movie! If you are a Narnia fan, this is definetly worth it. Of course, as will all other movie's made of books, there are some things left out/added/or changed, but as with the first one, I think it was still done very well! I love it, and would recommend highly!
