Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian
Actor: Ben Barnes; Goergie Henley; Skandar Keynes
Was R102.95 Now R92.66
Based on the second novel in C.S. Lewis's beloved CHRONICLES OF NARNIA series, PRINCE CASPIAN finds the four Pevensie children--Peter (William Moseley), Susan (Anna Popplewell), Edmund (Skandar Keynes), and Lucy (Georgie Henley)--once again whisked away from WWII-era England into the realm of Narnia, where the siblings once ruled as royalty. However, the Pevensies soon discover that 1,300 years have passed since they left, and the world is now controlled by the Telmarines, humans who long ago banished the magical creatures of Narnia to the wilderness. When the heir to the Telmarine throne, Caspian (Ben Barnes), survives an assassination attempt plotted by his scheming uncle, Miraz (Sergio Castellitto), the noble youth stumbles across Narnia's exiled enchanted population, and decides to lead them in an uprising, aided by Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy. Considerably darker and more action-packed than THE LION, THE WITCH & THE WARDROBE, this 2008 sequel, once again directed by Andrew Adamson, is driven by the struggle between the Telmarines and the banished Narnians, resulting in many fierce battle sequences. While the newcomer Barnes and the established quartet of Moseley, Popplewell, Keynes, and Henley are all in fine form, CASPIAN is largely enhanced by its supporting cast, which includes indie mainstay Peter Dinklage as the dour dwarf Trumpkin and revered British comedian Eddie Izzard as the voice of the swashbuckling mouse Reepicheep. Also briefly reprising their roles from the previous film are Liam Neeson, as the voice of Aslan, and Tilda Swinton, as the White Witch, actors who bring their familiar personas to this engaging and entertaining second chapter in the NARNIA saga. The four Pevensie children return to Narnia, only to discover that hundreds of years have passed since they ruled there, and the evil King Miraz has taken charge. With the help of a heroic mouse called Reepicheep, and the exiled heir to the throne, Prince Caspian, they set out to overthrow the King, once again with Aslan's help.

Huge disappointmentReviewed by Unknown from South Africa on 18 December 2008 279 of 555 people found the following review helpful: The Prince Caspian movie was really disappointing. The story was very different from the book, and for me, it lost much of the magic and innocence of the book. PG13?! The Narnia books were written for young Children, not teenagers. Peter was power hungry and ego-driven - quite unlike Lewis's Peter. Most of the Christian subtext and symbolism were lost in translation. Aslan hardly features in the movie at all. The Narnia stories are not ACTION stories. This movie is.
The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe was magnificent. In that movie there were extra scenes not included in the book, but the overall story and the message remained true to the spirit of the Chrionicles of Narnia. Prince Caspian did not. Was this review helpful?
