THE CHRONICLES NARNIA 3 MOVIE MOVIE
Though I have read that people who have read the book are displeased with what is missing or that two of the islands were combined into one island, I must say that this movie has captured Never judge a movie by its book or a book by its movie. Never judge a movie by its book or a book by its movie. Their mission – on which rests the fate of Narnia itself – takes the courageous voyagers to mysterious islands and a river that turns to gold, to fateful confrontations with magical creatures and sinister enemies, and to a reunion with their friend and protector, the Great Lion Aslan. In this new installment of the blockbuster The Chronicles of Narnia motion picture franchise, Edmund and Lucy Pevensie, along with their cousin Eustace, their royal friend King Caspian, and a warrior mouse named Reepicheep, find themselves swallowed into a painting and on to the Dawn Treader. Lewis’ beloved world – via the fantastic Narnian ship, the Dawn Treader. In this new installment of the blockbuster The Chronicles of Narnia motion picture franchise, Edmund and Lucy Pevensie, along with their cousin Eustace, their royal friend King Caspian, and a warrior mouse named Reepicheep, find Return to the magic and wonder of C.S. Hopefully the new director for "The Dawn Treader" will do better.Summary: Return to the magic and wonder of C.S. Simply put, this is a well put together film that doesn't have a whole lot of material backing it up. Since we are not involved with the characters or with the story, all we can do is watch the nice stuff that has been put on screen. Part of this I blame on lacking material. There were no standouts with this movie like there was with Tilda Swinton in the last one. There are characters, some good, some bad, but you are not entirely sure what their motives are. The result is that we, as the audience, don't feel very involved with the story. Not until the end of the film did I really feel his evil presence, and by then, it was hard for me to start fearing him. King Miraz looks like the bad guy version of King Leonidas from "300," and his motives seem muddled. The filmmakers have also seemed to believe that since we got to know the children in the first movie, we don't need much characterization involving them again. The whole backstory involving the raising of Prince Caspian from the novel has been cut, making our hero less 3-dimensional than we would want him to be. You would think that with a title like "Prince Caspian," the filmmakers would work to make our hero well rounded. This is where the Penvensie children come in, as they are whisked away from London back to Narnia, to restore balance in a now grittier land. Miraz orders the boy to be murdered, but Caspian escapes, and inadvertently calls for help. Now, the evil king Miraz hopes to permanently establish the Telemarine stronghold, but his throne is threatened by his nephew Prince Caspian. Since the four Penvensie children left, Narnia has been overcome by the evil Telemarines, who have banished all Narnians. One year has passed in our time, but 1300 years have passed in Narnia. Unfortunately, the material seems to be lacking.
The visuals are impeccable, the production design is well done, the costumes look great, and the actors do fine.
Don't get me wrong, the film is well put together. I had quite enjoyed the first Narnia, but upon seeing this one, I felt kind of blah. It was on a sudden decision that I went with a group of friends to a 9:10 showing of this film that, at the time of this review, was yesterday.
