I just returned from a rare trip to the movies. :popcorn: These days, I have quit going to movies due to the fact none of the movies showing in the theatres now interest me in the least. Except for one.
But I have been waiting patiently for this one, and it delivered everything that the original did, plus a little more. I'm trying not to give too many details away, because I'd rather not spoil anything for those who have not seen it yet. I really wish I'd re-read the book first, though.
However, I do have some criticisms regarding the film. :(
There was far too much Matrix-style slow-motion action in the battle scenes (which were incredible, btw) which caused it to be far more dramatic than it needed to be.
Plus, there was a character in the movie that I found rather irritating, because I felt they took away from the storyline. I won't name the character, but those of you who may have seen already it know who I'm referring to.

I can't wait to see this.

It's well worth it.
If you are able to, go to a matinee showing. I saved $2 that way (paid 7 bucks instead of 9 at a Regal Cinema).

Me too, I much as I hate it, I might have to go see it at the theater.
You remember the last movie I saw in a theater Jen ? :-)

I had to laugh at the review from my 10 year old daughter's friend. My girl came home and said Abby watched Prince Caspian already and I asked her how it was and she goes, wide-eyed and amazed,"She said it had a lot of BLoooD" :lmao: :lmao:
I'll be taking her to see it when school slows down in about a week. Maybe I'll even take her to a packed house Memorial day showing just for the experience of it all. :-)
She just finished reading the book, btw.

I never expect films based on movies to be completely faithful to the source, but the liberties taken with Prince Caspian are disappointing.
