THE CHRONICLES OF NARNIA: THE VOYAGE OF DAWN TREADER (Theatrical Release USA 2010)

 Ben Meyers’ Rating: 3.8|5.0 Starsììì 

The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of Dawn Treader—simple enough for the child, complicated enough for the adult—presents a storyline that is not up to par with either the child or adult audience. Then again, this movie has better presentation than the second film in the series possibly because so much of it has been moved to water stage scenes. Be aware the film works on a bland level and somehow misses the mark of a good, high quality show. The acting works at the good to okay level. The animal animation and costuming are commendable. Watch for quite excellent dragon animation. For investment capital, this may have been considered a risky investment.

THE CHRONICLES OF NARNIA: THE LION, THE WITCH, AND THE WARDROBE (Theatrical Release UK and America 2005)

 Ben Meyers’ Rating: 4.1|5.0 Starsìììì 

The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe—magical and intriguing movie for the family audience—is easily worth watching 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.
