The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian

This second installment of the Narnia Chronicles is much better than The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe film.

The film begins with the birth of a son. Cousin to Prince Caspian. Caspian must now flee his home or else be killed by his evil uncle. It has to do with heirs and wanting to rule the people.

As he escapes into the woods, he blows a horn. This horn he was instructed to blow whenever he was in serious trouble. It also happens to belong to Susan. The oldest sister. This action by Caspian causes the siblings to transport back to Narnia.

But it's been 1300 years since they've left after the first movie. Narnia has changed. Many of the animals no longer speak and humans now rule the land.

Of course, Caspian and the Pevensie kids team up with a few magical beasts to fight Caspian's uncle and his forces.

I don't want to get too much into because I think you'd want to see it for yourself. It's action packed, a couple battle scenes that take up a large section of run-time along with a couple jump-in-your-seat moments.

I give this movie 4 out of 5 stars. It was almost perfect!

I can't wait for the third film!
