Review of The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian (2008) by Camille — 16 Jun 2008

Visually, a beautiful movie. But unfortunately for diehard fans of the books, only about half of the movie is faithful to the novel. I understand the need to deviate a little from the original stories, but this movie is so different from the book that I had a hard time remaining present in the movie.

The thing that bothered me the most, however (besides the kiss at the end of the film; what a shameless embarrassment), were little things, true to the book and dear to the stories, that could have been thrown in without disrupting the flow of this revised version of Caspian.

Those who didn't read the books will enjoy this (if they can keep up with the constantly fluctuating pace of the movie), but if you did read them, rent it, so you can turn it off without wasting the $10 on the price of the ticket and complain out loud (which you will) without being hushed by your fellow audience.
