Narnia meets Lord of the Rings

I would be lying if I said that this movie did not hold my interest, it did, however, it is not a movie of the book Prince Caspian. I realize, movies are never like the books, but they totally retold the story in a completely muddled and nonsensical way. They moved up the action to have the Pevensies meet the Prince within the first hour, they added copious, unnecessary battles, and they made the whole point of the story a different point. I also question, with the level of violence how this movie received a PG rating. I know that they do not show any blood, however, they do more than just hint at beheadings and horrible deaths. There were children sitting behind us that were under the age of 8 and they were really traumatized and confused by the movie. This movie is not for anyone under the age of 10 or 11. The story is very complicated and there is no cuddly lion until practically the end of the movie for the little ones. I would say the religious aspect of the story was considerably less than in the first movie. Overall it was just average.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
