Reviews & comments

Flicks, Andrew Hedley
flicksWell worth watching
Although the plot was rather shallow (all they really did was fight) the characters were realistic, the acting great, the scenery amazing and pleasently humourous at times. Besides, I like to see films for the action and advenure, not see people wail about how their boyfriend ditched them or oh how ugly they are. Great movie to relax on.
Another great book on film
When the birth of a Telmarine child is celebrated with sky rockets over the castle at night very classic Walt Disney Lucy is still sweet ,a nice little kiss for the romantic's in us,great costume and set I would have liked to have some NZ actors in this other than that a great family movie

Variety
pressCloser to a straight-ahead medieval battle picture than the fantastical, other-worldly journey depicted in "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe," this new entry is a bit darker, more conventional and more crisply made than its 2005 predecessor.

Stuff
pressThere are brilliantly dastardly bad guys. There are thrilling sword fights. There are brutal battles. Heck, the last third of the film is dedicated to a war on the scale of Lord of the Rings' Battle of Helm's Deep.

San Francisco Chronicle
pressExactly one minute longer than its predecessor, but it's a dragged-out exercise, with no epic scale and no spirit worth talking about.

New Zealand Herald
pressBy the nature of its story, Prince Caspian is a much more action-oriented film than its predecessor, and as long as you're not too young, the action is exciting without being overwhelming. Fans of Adamson's The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe will be happy with this sequel, and now the action is well under way, Adamson leaves us wanting more.

Newshub
pressSome of the dialogue, particularly between the children, let the film down a little for me.

Film Threat
pressI can't condemn it outright, but damned if I can remember anything (aside from Izzard's performance) that would make me recommend it.

Christchurch Press
pressI really wanted to like this movie, but found myself checking my watch, noting how clumsily the centaurs run and how many "funny" moments have been added to keep things light. Nevertheless, Prince Caspian is a good-looking, entertaining family film, with a sprinkling of Christian allegory for those who seek it.
