Maggie, age 8, thoroughly enjoyed The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian.
Audrey, age 6, asked to leave the theater two, if not three, times — despite our review of the ultimate outcome of the story, based on our reading of the book, on our way to the theater.
Prince Caspian holds as much intense fighting as a PG movie can.
It’s also a well-done film, more consistently entertaining, with a more engaging storyline, than the recent film version of The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe. But it also departs from the novel in ways that I won’t spoil.
I thought Peter Dinklage, who plays the dwarf Trumpkin, might have been the best actor in the film, although Sergio Castellitto’s King Miraz is unquenchable and deeply wicked.

the makers of Prince Caspian kept to the original story in a lot of ways, but then strayed in others… i had heard they were going to make it into a silly pure-action flick, but thankfully this was not the case
