The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian—no great dialogue lines to deliver, no epic and
unforgettable military engagements, no terrific acting—makes one wonder why do
the Narnia movies keep generating income? These are low-budget productions
without one memorable and unforgettable dialogue delivery and, yet, they are profitable
generators of income. This movie is no exception to that rule and the last
battle scene is the perfect example of something that needs re-filming from its
beginning to its ending. The film can be descriptively finalized as cliched
while the kinder words would come as somewhat original but no fizz, just flat. Watch
the first film if one feels they must check out the Narnia stories.

Buy a ticket? Yes? No? Maybe?
Maybe. The storyline seems flat and not as great
as it would like to be.
The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe—magical and intriguing movie for the family audience—is
easily worthwatching for its storyline and great presentation…simple
for children yet complicated enough to serve the adult audience…the voiceovers
are well-done…worth an addition to the family home video library. Has a
satisfying conclusion. Well-written…the animation for the early 2000s still
stands as quality work that involves much talent.
